Bug (apps manager): if any app was updated, the size of updated app becomes zero and unable to create backup (link to apk isn't updated).
[Android Apps and Games] smartymcfly:
This app works really well. The ocr recognition is great on my phone. On chromeOS android I can not seem to get a good partial screenshot using fooview, which is ok I can get partial screenshot with keyboard shortcut or pixelpen, I was hoping there would be a way that I could share image taken from another app with fooview in order to use the ocr text recognition on pixelbook. Or if you can try to get it work on pixelbook like fooview works on phone. I was just thinking it might be easier to add the ability of other apps to be able to share imagebto fooview and then the ocr and translation screen opens up.

Thank you.

[MENTION=7171610]fvalpha[/MENTION]- I was monitoring the network requests that this app makes in the background and see this.

Why does it make connections & use my data when I have not used the app?
[Android Apps and Games] Nasty_z:
Hello

Thanks for the great app!

I'm trying to use the root screenshots and root installer options but it keeps saying "operation failed". I'm using Magisk and I checked in Magisk Manager and it doesn't show that FooView even requested root access. Am I missing something...?
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
The network check will check update info from the amazon server, including the required list, such as the search engine, the updated library, new ad filter list (if enabled) and other new version information.

You can disable it by the tile on the notification bar if you don't use it.
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
When you enable root from settings/developer settings, it will ask for "su" permission from the root manager (such as Magisk). I don't know why it doesn't get the permission. You might try uninstall fooView, and reboot the device, reinstall fooView and recheck the settings, then it will ask for the "su" permission as a new app.

You can also open the fooView window, input "fvconfig.log.on" and it will generate logs(fvlog.txt) on sdcard for the operations. The switch will be disabled automatically after a reboot.
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
In other apps on Android, you might try "share", then choose FV Task, then "Task Demo - Share Pics For Text", it's an inbuilt demo Task, you can modify/delete it freely.

For other device, you can open camera and use fooView on Android.
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
Device information and any step?

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] Nasty_z:
A reboot fixed the su permission issue. The root app install function works fine but the root screenshot option simply sates "Operation Failed"

Congrats to [MENTION=7171610]fvalpha[/MENTION]! This app is really impressive.

I think we need some tutorials to get in touch with all the amazing features that the app has!

I mean, I have read the changelog and I am gobsmacked! I have read things like three are image and video editor, gesture recognition and other stuff. Actually, I'm using Fooview for sharing trimmed screenshots on the fly and for starting quickly my favorites apps but nothing more.

I would like taking advantage of all features included in the app. Somebody could add a link to a tutorial which includes all the new features?

Thanks in advance
[Android Apps and Games] m2habert:
I don't think there is one.

The best thing so far is [MENTION=7171610]fvalpha[/MENTION]'s "tip list". Which is probably a better approach: the app is not exactly in need of a "map", it needs more of a "way of thinking" explained; which the tips stepwisely present.

Maybe we need suggestions from users leading [MENTION=7171610]fvalpha[/MENTION] to expand/update same list. To which I would add:

"¿Yellow cross showed up but you made a mistake/wanna red cross back? No problem: keep finger on screen and touch a second finger: red cross will re-show and you'll be able to readjust accordingly."
[Android Apps and Games] spiderio:
i have one questions, can we disable screenshot feature?

It seem my gesture often accidentally trigger the screenshot mode when swipe right/left
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
Thanks!

Currently we're still working hard on the features and more improvements/changes might be on the way, so there're no official tutorials for now, we will make the documents after 1.0, a stable version in this year.
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
Currently the screenshot gesture cannot be disabled, we will consider about the case.
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
Thanks for the great feedback!

History, Search, Gesture, Customization, Screenshot Circumstance and Player will be improved in future versions.

For the quick action series, you might try to record it using task and using a gesture to execute it, we're also working on the task.

For the texts in screenshot window, extra click is required for selection if there're more than one results.

For the mp4 category, The media is read from the system media library. If a .mp4 is categorized into video instead of audio, it's possible that its media_type = video according by the system. We will think about how to deal with the dilemma.

"no-vogals" is also a good idea, and we will think about it.

[Android Apps and Games] elementsl:
I've noticed that since the last update when I drag the icon over text, instead of taking a screenshot of just that area it now defaults to copying the text instead. Is there a setting to change this back to allowing you to select which one you'd prefer? I might just have missed something obvious.
[Android Apps and Games] m2habert:
Thanks for your thanks wich I thank you back with anonther thank you for this remarkable app/approach.

¿May you indulge me in an extra last-minute point I only noticed yesterday? I see that the "history search" does not present findings from the fv clipboard.

In the fashion of "easy-thinking-flow" and "all here in one window" (and, also, since fv's clipboard amounts to a walloping 200 item list), I think it would be very nice to make the "history" bring up clipboard results as well.

Please consider. Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] smartymcfly:
This is seperate issue than previous but I hope to also solve previous issue if you can help me with this first.

I meant to reply sooner but had to powerwash the pixelbook after it updated and now fooview has become completely unusable on pixelbook.

When I start it and after i have went through startup and set permissions the fooview gesture icon or line never shows up and then it makes the pixelbook almost unable to do much as just a white line shows up on very top of screen and the screen dims ever so slightly like there is an overlay but then nothing except the shelf is selectable. The only way I have been able to get out of this is to logout or power down and power back up. I can not get into fooview settings either to see if there is anything to correct it.

I do not know for sure what version I installed initially that allowed me to set it up correctly to make it usable. I believe it would have been a version that was released November or December.

[Android Apps and Games] Domnea:
I have found 2 problems with the new version. First and most important I can't give root access. The dialog box can't be clicked. Probably the fooView is on top. I tried to hide the icon still no success.

Edit: found a setting in supersu app "disable tapjacking protection" , this didn't happen before.

Second when keyboard opens the button is minimal but still on keyboard above "p".I haven't dig out the keyboard issues just found out right now. soon after I didn't get root permissions I said myself "I must report this" and found out about keyboard issue. I really need root permissions because I want to move fooView in system apps for... you know why.

Using aosp vanilla rom 8.1 and SwiftKey keyboard.

I will dig more and come back.
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
When on text, it will select text. You can also drag a rectangle on the same area for selecting image.
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
Will consider it. Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
Which android version in your pixelbook?

fooView should run normally on almost all Android 4.1+ systems, but we haven't tested it on the pixelbook, so don't know what has happened.

We will keep track on this issue.

And if you need any older versions, you might send mail to feedback@fooview.com
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
On 8.1, you can use the tile on the notification area to enable/disable fooView any time to solve the floating overlap layer issue.

For keyboad overlap issue, you can edit the icon position from the settings or set hide list on the keyboard to other styles.
[Android Apps and Games] crime_of_heart:
Hi, thanks for the amazing app. Which file stores clipboard data? And in which format (json, db)?

It would be great to have improt/export clipboard, especially from clipper+ which uses json export.

Thanks again!
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
There's backup/restore feature from 0.9.2.0.

And if you want to view the clipboard content seperately, you can open db file .fooView/data/fooSimpleORM.db
[Android Apps and Games] Domnea:
Yes I figured it out.

Just love the option to set height for the line it fixes all my frustration with miss clicks! I wish to be full screen long :p

For now I'm very pleased with the 500% height line, no problems in any app never made a miss click , but when I open keyboard the "half circle" appear. Can I hide it and stick with the line?

Great update!

P. S: in stock android 7 the screen recording was kinda lagging with visual artifacts, in Android 8 it's perfect but internal audio doesn't work at all. Yes I did installed fooView as system app(as should be). Maybe it's my rom not compatible or it's just Google fault making it impossible?
[Android Apps and Games] mermade:
For updates and ad filter subscriptions, it's fine if the app makes network requests. However, why would your app make connections to "news.google.com" even though the phone is idle and not being used?

[Android Apps and Games] crime_of_heart:
I have just noticed when using paste as a gesture (for example when short tap to fooView icon) the tesxt always pasted to the end istead of the current cursor position. This makes paste functionality very limited. Could you please at least have an option to paste to the current cursor position instead of the end of the current text?

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] thisisarjun:
Hello,I have been using this app for very long time.

Since the recent updates which is having customize task, I am not knowing how to use that customize task feature. That feature seems very interesting, can you please provide video tutorial and example of how to use it??

Thank you
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
There might be a "news" keyword on your homepage (which is by default as a demo). If your "news" keyword directs to news.google.com (or any other web you have set), it will get the thumbnail from the website. You can set up the time interval, the thumbnail region or disable it.

to mention one more thing :

keywords and thumbnail feature is an interesting feature, you might try it.
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
You can set the icon style for the keyboard in the settings (auto hide list setting).

It should work by design but we will check the possibility for the internal audio on Android 8.
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
It's a limitation in current version. Due to some compatibility issue in some browsers, the paste on edittext box is designed as "paste to the end" in current version. We will improve it to "paste to the cursor" in future versions.
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
Thanks. The task module is still in the development and we have something to complete. More guides will be provided after those work.

create a link of saved picture on desktop

a feature request:

I often use the tool to cut a screen area out of a camera image - such as train travel time, opening hours of a restaurant ...

If I have the small picture, I save it in the popup dialog (disk picture)

But it's nice to have an extra button or function near the Save button that saves the image and creates a link on the desktop
[Android Apps and Games] mermade:
Why would you keep such a feature by default where it downloads the thumbnails of news articles every x mins? What purpose does it serve? Instead, if it keeps polling and show some breaking news to the user, then it makes sense? I would think this to be a waste of bandwidth. When the user wants to read news, he would just click on the News link and that would load the current updated news page (nes.google.com). Isn't that simple?

[MENTION=7171610]fvalpha[/MENTION]: Are you able to add the following additional tools in Edit image (screenshot) page:

Screen shot problem

So I have some issues with play store purchases, I tried to make a screen shot with fooView and I got this :

EDIT :MY Phone did not reboot, fooview works fine. The problem is only when I try to make the screen shot on play store.
[Android Apps and Games] shaqman89:
Works fine for me.

Maybe including about device details and rom would help since it might be specific to your device.

Including logs might also help.
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
No, it won't download thumbnails by default. It takes effect only after you have expanded it and read the page. You can set the interval and the thumbnail region or disable it from the menu any time.

It‘s a keywords demo. By default there're two demos for keywords, "news" and "weather". There're four demos for tasks. Keywords and Tasks are core features in fooView.

Though not very clear now, these features would be improved a lot in future versions.
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
The screenshot uses standard way and if it cannot work in some app, there might be some limitation in this app or the system.
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
Will enhance it. Thanks!

I have a question regarding resetting the fooView preferences. Even though I Uninstalled the app to start from scratch, it fetches my old preferences when I first install and open the app! How can I reset the app?

You mean the black font in the pdf is not clear because of the dark background , or the pdf is all invisible?
