If you copy texts in fooView(FV), it will be copied system clipboard and FV clipboard.

If you copy texts from other apps, on Android 10, the system doesn't allow normal app like FV to read the system clipboard, so you won't see texts copied from other apps in FV clipboard on Android 10.

We will enhance clipboard and texts features in future versions.
[Android Apps and Games] smartymcfly:
Did you see how the developer of Tasker was able to read clipboard again android 10? Using the logcat.

The clipboard part of fooview is one of the best parts about it, I hope you find a workaround. Also would be very nice if we could blacklist certain apps so fv does copy passwords from password managers.

https://www.xda-developers.com/tasker-update-logcat-detection-automation/
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
Thanks for the advice!

Accutally FV has some advanced features in the plan, which needs more permissions like others. However, it's not the best way for FV, for FV doesn't want to use too much advanced permissions, such as adb, root, etc., which normal users cannot use.

For the password feature, could you give more details how does it look like?
[Android Apps and Games] smartymcfly:
it does not matter, I would rather have the functionality of fooview without it.

But there used to be an app I used before fooview, it had a blacklist, which it did not copy anything when those apps on the blacklist were in the foreground.
[Android Apps and Games] Zaxx32:
I know it's still under construction but I find it VERY counter-intuitive...for me maybe. The first foremost function is the file explorer facing first, front and obvious. Will revisit in a few months. Meanwhile I'm back to my favorite, easy to use file app, imo ofc...

ES Explorer 1.4.1.1 - Your best release EVER...take a pole and u will see. My 2nd fav. Solid Exp and last is Mi Silver...just my 2 cents...js

Hope In future can copy on any app

[Android Apps and Games] smartymcfly:
I believe that the fv clipboard can copy from any app if you go to the context menu and press the 3 dot button and then fv clipboard. But the context menu says fv clipboard for both actions of copy and paste on Android 10, is it possible to edit one of those texts to fv-copy and fv-paste or something that makes it easier to which one one you want to use.
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
FV Clipboard registers in the system menu, so you can copy texts to FV Clipboard.

It shows twice in the screenshot, I guess fooView and FV File Explorer are both installed. Each has registered an FV Clipboard, there's just one shared clipboard. I will deal with the issue.
[Android Apps and Games] fundora2:
Global Search Gesture

I love the global search gesture you can perform in FooView. Is there an ability for you to make "Search" a shortcut gesture like History, or Clipboard. But with Search have the Keyboard automatically activated with the toggle ready to type in Search bar? This would save a couple keystrokes and be awesome. Thank you for this amazing app.
[Android Apps and Games] NullS3c:
Earlier when copying anything it used to go directly to FV Clipboard but after Android Q that feature was gone.

It's very useful to me, can you please check it
[Android Apps and Games] sandeshdroid:
It us due to android Q.

Request: about behavior of share menu

Function:

launch the share item used last time with one tap like the share menu of the chrome browser.

(Launch the share item selection dialog with a long tap)

Purpose/Background:

I mostly only use the same items in the share menu.

I want to reduce operation steps.

Forgive my poor English.

thank you as always.
[Android Apps and Games] sunsero:
All the time using fooView. But sometimes since the redesign of the window in the attached screenshot I miss the buttons for e.g. translating texts. The screenshot is taken on Galaxy S7 with Android 8.
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
Android Q blocks it. You can enable it again using adb, refer to advanced settings.
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
The buttons should be on the bottom in all versions by design. Could you please record the whole process? I will look into the issue.
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
1) check the "set as default" in share list and choose an app

2) tap share button later to share to this app.

3) long press the share button to show share list again, and in the share list, the apps will be sorted by frequency.

More UI options will be supported in future versions
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
Currently tap the address, it will goto search and pop up Keyboard automatically. If you are in a card such as "Weather“， it will fill in "Weather" keywords automatically. Do you mean that? or could you please give some details, what's the search gesture like?
[Android Apps and Games] NullS3c:
Will it need root ?
[Android Apps and Games] fundora2:
Thanks for Replying, basically to make the search an option in your default "Action"

list (Voice or Open/Close Clipboard) or default "App" list(like History or Clipboard).

Make search a default option where you can create a gesture and it will pop with the entry window and keyboard automatically.

I use web search alot(google default search engine) and being able to have "Search" a default action or app where I can create a gesture would be awesome.

Currently I open the app, click on Input URL or Keyword, this opens another window and keyboard pops up with input icon blinking. I would like to make this window (with input icon blinking and Keyboard activiated) an "Action" or "App" so we could use a gesture for it.

Thank you.
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
No. Basicly it is designed to run without root. It has hundreds of features and almost 99% of them don't require root.

However, if you have root, several root features have been also added. It asks for root permission, for example, when you modify files in system directory.
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
Got it. Thanks for the explanation.

The blinking will be checked and improved, and more options will be added.
[Android Apps and Games] NullS3c:
My device that's why I'm and I'm not planning to root it to be honest, so for this case (granting FV access to clipboard) is it going to need root permissions ?
[Android Apps and Games] sunsero:
It happens when there's no picture generated just text (yellow border for selection). See animated gif attached - I've not been allowed to attach this as a video.

Update: Strange - today I could not reproduce the issue.

Update 2: It happened with a red border (both text and picture captured) as well.
[Android Apps and Games] mac_1013:
Wow, it was a feature that was already implemented.

Sorry for taking the time, and thanks for the commentary.

My problem has been solved.

fooview is the best app to be honored.

Thank you as always.

As an aside, I look forward to implementing the upDown / downUp gestures, etc. that I have requested earlier.;)
[Android Apps and Games] smartymcfly:
[MENTION=7171610]fvalpha[/MENTION]

Magisk + riru core (magisk module) + riru clipboard whitelist (magisk module)

You can add fooview to the whitelist and it regains the copy/paste/clipboard function that worked prior to Android 10/Q.
[Android Apps and Games] NullS3c:
How can you add it to whitelist ?
[Android Apps and Games] ssaikia3:
I'm on crdroid (lavender latest), I often use fooview to translate the on-screen texts from like, Russian to English uk and stuff, and recently, everytime I try to capture screen by dragging the on-screen button, the system UI crashes, So I reinstalled the app, and now it's even worse, the whole system restarts on trying to capture screen. Now I'm not sure what is the problem or where to go seek solution, is it the app or should I go to my rom dev? Is there a way to take a log of these?
[Android Apps and Games] testeraphy:
Different device, use crdroid too.. Same issue, seems custom rom problems.. Any app that use casting will crash system ui..

Workaround if rooted : enable root in advanced settings.
[Android Apps and Games] ssaikia3:
Yes I did try root right after posting this, and seems to be working good as of now.

Thanks a lot for your response.

Hi [MENTION=7171610]fvalpha[/MENTION]: I opened FV and under 'Videos' I selected a file and then tapped on the delete icon and got this message:

"Delete operation failed: Permission denied, please enable root explorer in Settings"

Can you please advise why am I unable to delete some files? I do not have a rooted device. Checking the property of those files, I see that they are having the following path:

/storage/emulated/999/WhatsApp/Media/WhatsApp Animated Gifs

Is there any setting in FV that I need to check / sysem settings? Please advise

I am on OnePlus 6t. I was trying to use FooView music player as my default music player, but the app seems to go to sleep. I changed the battery optimization from Optimize to Do Not Optimize but the music keeps stopping after a while. Any ideas if this is a oneplus issue or app issue. I am using Bluetooth headphones when this occurs. Thanks

[Android Apps and Games] mermade:
[MENTION=7171610]fvalpha[/MENTION]: I wanted to report a bug. I did the following:

1. In my phone's system settings, I disabled Autostart functionality for fooview

2. Restarted my phone and then turned the autostart setting to on again

3. Launched fooview by tapping on the icon. It prompted me to enable the accessibiliy service which I then enabled

4. Now the orb would appear as a circle on the screen. I open notification and then tap on fooview's notification[Hide Settings (Manual)]

5. In the window, I select 'All Apps' and in Mode, I select he second option (line) and select Ok.

6. The orb which was showing as a circle now shows as a line (which I want).

7. Now again when I tap on fooview icon and open it, the orb appears again in a circle instead of line. I again repeat step 5 but everytime I launch fooview, it shows as a circle. Now, I go to the home screen of my phone, I again see the orb as a circle.

Can you please fix this bug. When we selected 'All Apps' and the appearance of the orb to be line, then it should stay like that on all the screens.

Thanks

[Android Apps and Games] m2habert:
[MENTION=7171610]fvalpha[/MENTION] : bug

the "save screenshot to fooview folder " ( = select part of screen + press "copy" button ) has always worked flawlessly.

From several weeks ago to now, however, it has been failing to capture the first try.

In other words, if I intend to capture 4 images, it fails to save the first one (and apparently it works perfect after that). To the point that I'm always repeating the first capture (for "just-in-case".)

Not sure yet if the bug shows up again at every phone restart (I do reboot once everyday) or after a while... But it's definitely a constant.

¿Anybody else facing this?

PLEASE HELP!

Device: Moto E6 Plus

I've been using fooview for over a year now and I like to say thank you for the fantastic app, it has made my phone more into my personal computer.

However today I went to do a screen record and it failed.

I tried again then opened up the app switcher, red exclamation mark, turned out to be accessibility settings.

Went in and it stated the service was malfunctioning.

Switch off then on again, (page 1 tech support text book)

Stated it was on, tried to record, malfunction again.

Did some digging online, made sure it had all permissions, made sure battery optimisation wasn't killing it, made sure it had device admin privileges, turned of deep battery optimisation.

I'm still having the same issue and I'm at a loss.

Have I missed something? Anyone have any ideas?

Please help and thank you in advance.

[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
As far as I know, on some OnePlus devices, OnePlus changes Android normal behavior, it uses a navigation key or gesture switch to control system "back" feature, then you can only enable navigation key to allow "back". If it's the case, you might wait for system update
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
When you hide the icon (for example , line or invisible), sometimes you cannot drag it out or tap it easily, one feature of the fooView app icon is to recover to defaults.

So please don't use fooView main icon to show or hide the circle. Instead you can use the ON/OFF widget, the notification icon, the switch Tilt (you might add it on the notification area), and other gestures to show/hide the circle.

Any more suggestions, mail to feedback@fooview.com
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
I guess It might be killed by the system. You can try

1) lock it from recent apps list

2) Set autostart and battery optimization
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
Normally a cold start of the app might be slow. The hot start (second or later start) would be faster. You might check if the system always has killed all apps ( so that it requires cold start always) or it disable (or make it slow) fooView to start other apps with some settings (such as battery optimization?)
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
Some folders are designed by their own to be self-managed, so they require special permissions. You cannot access them with read/write permission. In this case, the above error message will popup.

[Android Apps and Games] DiamondJohn:
I am a relatively new user of fooView. FYI I found it in the playstore, and only just now found this thread.

I have searched this thread, but I could not find the answer; the search pulled up hundreds of unrelated posts. Obviously a bad search term on my part.

I am trying to do 2 things that I have yet to work out how to do.

1. Run a user defined shell script from the fly-out menu. I have seen the "Customized Task" feature, and am guessing thats the path to go down, but I can't determine how to create and/or edit a new or existing task?

2. Under actions (when assigning an icon/action), I can not find the "Display Menu" action. Am I blind? it could also be implemented with a simple send input "KEYCODE_MENU [82] = (0x00000052)" shell command

A minor version of this bug (selecting apps to pin in the App Switcher) occurred today- although there is a quick workaround (below) to get it working again.

Background: It was working fine today, until I changed fooView's backup and save locations in the Settings (to my sd card), then decided I wanted to change the pinned apps again. I restarted my phone several times, but wasn't able to change the pins until I found this post, haha.

Workaround: I had to disable "Show On The Top Level" to pin the apps I wanted. Now, after re-enabling it, I am still able to modify pinned apps without having to toggle it back off.
[Android Apps and Games] Artieza:
It might be great to have language preference. I don't like how it looks translated. Yeah, I can correct translation but I like other language as more compact.
[Android Apps and Games] Artieza:
Ouch, I was confused about "enable gesture to show/hide the bubble". It absolutely unable to understand this pref. Rename it to "tap and hold the bubble then swipe outside a nearest edge of screen". At this moment this pref doesn't provide understandable description. It says just swipe. What's the way to swipe? Incomprehensibly.

It also doesn't hide the line mode. It just switching between bubble and line. Could you made it work as "bubble — invisible" and "line — invisible".

"Bubble — line" have no sense for me. Or provide more options for this pref. Thanks. 😘
[Android Apps and Games] mpk_konstantin:
Hello. Thank you very much for such a good application. It's a pity not all the functions, but I would like instructions on individual tasks and the execution of java scripts. I wanted to run this script https://www.cwestblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Excel_-_XLS_To_CSV_Converter.js for converting xls to csv, I'm not sure if fooview can do it, but hope is still alive ... I would be glad if you tell me how to use this functionality ...
[Android Apps and Games] DiamondJohn:
That script wouldnt run on android, as its using Windows ActiveX.

var xlApp = new ActiveXObject("Excel.Application");

Just reading that line of code, it would be starting an instance of desktop windows Excel (also no on Android), and getting it to do actual work.
[Android Apps and Games] mpk_konstantin:
It is clear, it is a pity of course, but I thought that there is under Windows ... Thanks for the answer ... And do not tell me at all where to find the documentation for java scripts in fooview?
