Simple yet elegant

Using the app since yesterday... Simple yet elegant.

I like this app and would use it regularly if it were a free app. If I have to purchase the app, I would look for some improvements.

From developer to developer, here are some suggestions that could make this app even more awesome:

For some reason, it is messing with my "Display brightness" setting. When I enable sidebar tool, it turns off "Automatic screen brightness" randomly.

Could it be hidden when keyboard is active? I use SwiftKey keyboard and when I try to start swiping from the edge of keyboard, the side bar is activated which is a little annoying.

When I open the missed events like message/missed calls, it does not clear in the notification area. I would expect it to open the appropriate application and clear the notification too.

Icons of settings bar could be made a little more attractive

Can't see the setting from the sidebar. Can barely make out the word 'Edit' but the rest can't be seen due to the contrast or color scheme between text and background. Don't see option to remove bars under 'manage bars' or ability to rename them. Installed on nexus 4 running stock 4.3

#BugReport

When I try to use the search box in the app bar, the search results do come but then the bar only displays the previously searched application even when I clear the field. I have to reset the bar by going to setting and turning off the search field tickbox.

---------- Post added at 09:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:43 PM ----------

I didn't mean to say that. The icon only become invisible..The option from the multi-value dropbox did not remove it from the status bar.. It was taking up space and all the other statusbar icons were appearing after the invisible icon.

Desired Changes and Additions

I love the direction of this app. Here are some desired changes/additions.

Activation Options

Double Tap, Press and Swipe, Press and Hold(adjustable time), and so on.

A home screen option and a normal option would be great since launching it interferes with my home screen launcher all the time.

Edit for Bar Names

Bar Order Options

Can't seem to adjust the order. Could be user error on my part.

Bar Delete Option

Can't seem to delete a test bar. Could be user error on my part.

Press and hold to go into the settings of a specific option.

example: Press and Hold Wifi, Launches into the settings of Wifi.

Press Wifi toggles power as is currently.

Option per bar to close on press or stay open until I press outside of window.

example: Settings bar stays open to make several options if needed and App bar once launched obviously can auto close the bar.

Thanks,

TJ

[Android Apps and Games] ChillaGorilla:
I love this app! It improves productivity and multi tasking! Here are some suggestions:

The home button doesn't work if the sidebar is opened, maybe you could fix it?

It would be really great if you could add "long press item" in settings. To add activities to apps, contacts...

Maybe you could get it to work, that the sidebar doesn't open, or only in a specific area, if the keyboard is used - I changed the vertical hight as a workaround...

It would be great if you could also swipe back to close the sidebar!

I'd really love to see the development of this app - looking forward to buy it!

Keep up the good work ;)

crashing

It crash when i rename a bar.

Ascend G330 (8825-1).
[Android Apps and Games] gopzzz:
First of all I am very much pleased and appreciate the developer for the effort. I installed this in pacman 4.3 rom in galaxy s3 then it crashed later I reinstalled in nightly 010913 version, now works great. Has halo on the right and sidebar plus on the left... Wow my s3 is comfy to work.... Real multitasking..

My request is to enable scrolling with fingers rolled over each bar segment rather than pulling out each part of bar separately... So I need pullout and scroll with finger to change the partitions the scroll towards the screen for complete exposure...
[Android Apps and Games] llewellyn1:
Great app, love the fact that it combines a few uses into one app. My two suggestions would be to be able to fully customize colors of side bars as the grey and holo blue may not be to everyone's taste and I also find it to be a clunky when pulling out from side, if there was a way to make for smoother transition, this would be an absolute knockout of an app.

A few suggestions

Great app.

I just started using this, and it has been great. Besides a crash when I added a widget, it's been great.

I have a few questions:

Is it possible to swipe away the bar after we open it, rather than haveing to tap on the screen else where?

When the screen locks, I;ve noticed that the bar stays open and ontop of the lockscreen. Is there a way to fix this?

Lastly, is there a way to get notifications into the bar, or will we have to use third part notification widgets?

I am using this on my HP Slatebook X2 PC.

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] Px80:
will it be on playstore for auto update? :)
[Android Apps and Games] killall:
From reading this thread there are too many crashes to release it on the store yet. IMHO.
[Android Apps and Games] Drakenlord78:
Best App EVER

First of all, I haven't all the crash you get, I don't mind why but seems that this app is perfectly working on my Samsung Galaxy S III.

Just something to correct buddy : while the screen is secured (for instance mine is secured with a patern), I can still swipe and make appear the sidebar, but without doing anything obviously as the screen is locked. So better to hide the bar on secured lock screen (but without any security, productivity is OVER 9000+ !!! :D).

Again, awesome work, can't thank you enough for all the hard work you provided. Should fairly be #1 sales soon. ;)

*************FEATURE REQUEST**************

I understand this might be impossible when a user is inside of another app..... but what about when the user is on their home screen..... please let me know if this is possible, and if it is, then PLEASE consider my feature request, because adding this would be a KILLER FEATURE.

ok, here is my request.

imagine you're on your homescreen, and you "swipe up", i'm not talking about replacing the swipe up feature which 'Google Now' uses whenever you press the home key and swipe up. i'm simply talking about swiping up from anywhere else besides from the home button (because that is already taken over by google now). imagine you're in your home screen, with a quick flick of a finger in the up motion you could access one of these bars (which one you choose could be decided in settings later). this swipe up motion is not currently being used by any other app or by any OS functionality. However, "listening" or waiting for a motion up finger swipe to open a bar would be SUPERB in my opinion.

LET ME CLARIFY, I am not referring to a specific spot on the screen where you have to press and then from that specific point, you then swipe up..... no....

I am referring to literally just doing a swipe up motion....... anywhere...... even if your home screen is FULL OF APPS, you could do a swipe up motion on top of those apps (and it wont affect those apps because only a long press affects apps)

please let me know if you could do this. THANKS !
[Android Apps and Games] nsnsmj:
Amazing app.
[Android Apps and Games] Ritwik7:
A big thank you to the developer for this app. It's a fantastic idea. Was just wondering if the swipe animation for the bars could be made smoother. Still testing the app. Will get back with further comments.
[Android Apps and Games] gordito_gr:
Appearing on the lockscreen could be an option. It seems convinient to me.
[Android Apps and Games] JagoX:
So is this related to the already existing app called Sidebar Lite & Sidebar Pro that has been in the App Store for quite sometime?

...to be fair though, Sidebar Plus seems to do more.
[Android Apps and Games] gordito_gr:

This app does way more than the Play store app.
[Android Apps and Games] JagoX:
Oh I know it does, I actively use the Play store app on my N7 and Gnex. It's a great app too but I just wish I could have more than one running at once.
[Android Apps and Games] rasputi:
First of all, congratulations for the app its very nice and useful

I have a request

Can you add an option to "block" the app when you are on certain apps?, happened to me that when I am for example on a game I open the bar accidentally, so I think it would be nice if there be an option that let you choose some apps where the app is "blocked"
[Android Apps and Games] gotzaDroid:
Awesome. Just awesome. It feels like it was built in stock on my N4.

The option to disable this on the lock screen would be nice. It's seeming to interfere with swiping between lock screen widgets on 4.3
[Android Apps and Games] NCguy:
Please add shortcuts!
[Android Apps and Games] leducbao:
Which do you mean by shortcut? Try the mixed bar where you are shortcuts to a bar
[Android Apps and Games] NCguy:
Im talking about shortcuts to things like tasker tasks and Android activies. Check out power toggles under "custom". There is a ton of stuff you can launch other than standard apps.

How to edit setting collection in big bar? Would like to add/remove functions. The size of the bar is too big for my needs, it fills almost the whole screen. A way to resize it? - maybe it's related to a widget I added? I will try to make a screenshot so you see what I mean.

GREAT App

GREAT App. This has replaced my paid version of Sidebar.

I know it is a work in progress so I am not going to bombard you with requests and bugs. I will say that I am using Apex launcher and the icon likes to stay active in the recent app list which is kind of unnecessary. It would be great if all launchers could be eliminated from this list.

Thanks again!

Great app + bug report

Thank you very much for this awesome app !

It's so useful and practical !

Not only is it fast and beautiful, but it's also essential !

I have installed it on my Galaxy Note 2 - N7105 and have detected a few bugs. Maybe they have already been reported to you (I haven't read all the topic, there are too many replies !).

First, it's impossible to rename a bar : the app crash instantly and show a bugdroid on a blue background with the possibility to send you an error report (what I have done!).

Next, the "auto" checkbox for the brightness setting doesn't work at all. The slider works well and desactivate the auto brightness but the checkbox isn't effective.

That's all for the moment ! :D

---------- Post added at 05:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:28 PM ----------

My reply was for the alpha version of your app. I have downloaded it firm the Google Play Store on version 1.0, and all works well !

But the brightness setting seems to control the brightness without taking care of the system settings, like they were all independant.
[Android Apps and Games] leducbao:
I intend to implement brightness checkbox in such way since you don't need to disable auto-brightness before manually adjust brightness slider.

[Android Apps and Games] doug3673:
Beautiful app. I have a suggestion. Please allow us to use our own custom icons in the app bar. Like long press on an icon to select image from gallery to replace default icons. This would be the one feature most of these sidebar apps lack that I'm looking for.

[Android Apps and Games] raynerape:
Incredible one of a kind sidebar launcher with lots of untapped potential! Immediately purchased the app to support the Dev in hopes this app will be improved in the future because currently widget usage and DashClock extension usage are rudimentary at best :(

Things I am missing right now:

* MY BIGGEST ISSUE! Ability to set size (in height, especially) of widgets, so widgets can be properly rendered. Too many widgets render with bad height, making them unusable.

* Support for widgets with scrollable contents (i.e. YouTube, Remember The Milk)

* Support for auto-hiding DashClock extensions with no content.

* Support for bars on both sides of the screen (left AND right)

* Support to turn off the cyan line on the edge of the screen for pro users who don't need the hint

* Better support for widget interaction (i.e. if user taps on a widget the launches a view, close the bar - currently view launches in the background and bar stays)
[Android Apps and Games] doug3673:
Found another bug... status bar battery meter does not update to show accurate battery percentage. My battery was at 55% when I turned on the battery meter icon in the settings, then I charged my phone to 75%, but the icon still shows 55% in my status bar.
[Android Apps and Games] KreAch3R:
Great app! Most of the posters have already mentioned all the bugs I have found. One that I didn't notice though, is that when I try to sort the App sidebar alphabetically, it sorts them in reverse, a.k.a. from Z -> A.

Mixed bars

more control over Widget sizes

Did anyone manage to manually sort apps in 'all apps bar'? In my device the list keeps getting sorted randomly, not even alphabetically.
[Android Apps and Games] gotzaDroid:
A small issue I'm having here. If I do not have the app's notification active, after a period of time, my volume rocker becomes unresponsive on my N4. If I go into the app's settings and disable and re-enable the side bar, the volume rocker works again. The work around so far is to keep the notification active, but with it active, my phone won't go into a deep sleep.

Not complaining or anything like that, just letting you know. This app is awesome and I'll take the battery drain or volume rocker issue to keep using it. This is with the play store version with full premium activated.
[Android Apps and Games] duongtunglam:
Yes, but appdrawer cannot display on over app running. We've just change view of sidebar a bit, not change feature. The width of sidebar will be larger but not equal whole screen width.

This. The opacity setting would be better affecting the background if only one can be done imo.

Any possibility of adding a toggle to launch the apps in a halo floating window? Per app would be nice. Its just this launch flag. It doesnt sound like it would be hard if you had the skills. I just dont know how to add a flag to a shortcut.
