[MENTION=7171610]fvalpha[/MENTION]: Got a suggestion. After a screenshot is taken (full screen, region, object, etc), we see a small window showing the image with other options like search, share, copy, etc. However, it would be good to have an option to instantly upload the image to an image hosting service like imgbb, tinypic, imgur, etc. and get a shareable link. I have seen this in the program on the desktop (Ex: Lightshot). I find the need to upload all my screenshots every time and currently have to do it the manual way to get a link. Can you please consider this very useful feature with which one can upload images to such sites with the tap of a button? Let me know your thoughts.

How do we disable FooView from specific apps as a privacy / security measure? For instance, banking apps, password vaults, etc.

I don't mean just hiding the icon in particular apps unless that also accomplishes the above, which I think is how it used to be.

I'm sure this was discussed before but I cannot seem to find it, and anyway I know the method has changed over time.

Thanks as always for a great app. Looking forward to paying for it :laugh:

Could you use su to delete files from external storage? I tried to delete 5K small files... It's so slow. ?
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
Will look into the case.
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
Currently you can disable it by hiding the icon and set the mode to disable, then it won't work any more except for a notification icon.

If you need disable all the parts including the icon and the empty process, you can only disable it from the settings in fooView. That is not advisable because the system will claim its permissions and you need to set it again every time. That's why we haven't put a shortcut for quick disable.
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
No, not use root. We will consider the case.

[Android Apps and Games] sandeshdroid:
Thanks for making this awesome app. Can you please put all bottons at bottom like new chrome home? It will be useful for large screen devices. It is easy to open multiple tabs but hard to close with one hand. Can you please add swipe to delete tab feature?

[MENTION=7171610]fvalpha[/MENTION]: I have noticed slight delay when a webpage opens in the fooview browser compared to standalone browsers like Chrome/FF. I checked this with various pages on both the fooview browser and other browser and observed that there is always some latency when opening pages. Note that I have a very fast (75 Mbps) connection but still observed slight delay when loading pages. Can you please look into this?

One other thing is the Accessibility permission setting switch. I tapped on the switch to disable the accessibility setting (in fooView app) and it took me to the system Accessibility setting page where I disabled the setting for fooview. However, when I went back and saw the fooView switch, it was still enabled. It should be disabled (since the main system accessibility setting for fooView is already disabled). Please fix this.
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
Layout will be optimized for single hand in future versions.

Swipe down from the window button to show windows, and swipe to close any window in it.
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
Will check the delay case.

Normally fooView will check the system switch status, if system switch is off, fooView can hardly enable the switch. So it's not normal. Will look into the possibility, and I guess the system switch status is wrong in this case now.
[Android Apps and Games] sandeshdroid:
Thanks. Fooview contains many hidden features.
[Android Apps and Games] mermade:
I think you have misunderstood the Accessibility issue. Let me try to explain again. There are two switches for this setting (one in fooView permission page and the other is system setting). Ideally, both should show the same status (that is, if system setting is on, then fooView setting should also be on and vice versa). Now the issue currently with fooView is that when the switch is tapped in fooView permission page, it takes to the system Accessibility page where I now turn the setting off and then when I come back to fooView permission page, I should be seeing the switch status as off but currently it is still on which is a bug. It wrongly informs the user that the accessibility setting is on when in reality it is actually off. Please fix this.
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
Yes，I mean the same thing. I haven't got the same feedback before except for this one. Sometimes when fooView is killed by the system, the system switch is on and fooView switch is off, this is a common case, which is a known system bug. But current one is opposite and it's odd.
[Android Apps and Games] mermade:
[MENTION=7171610]fvalpha[/MENTION]: I just observed that the text seen on fooView notification entry is not visible at times with certain themes. Refer the attached screenshot

https://ibb.co/fz6LCR

Are you able to include some option in your app settings to tackle this? Thanks

EDIT: Not sure what changed but when I restarted my phone and checked, I was able to see the notification text correctly. Will continue to monitor this and report if I observe this again. Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
It should be grey(black) by design. Will record the issue, if you meet it again, please keep me informed. Thank you!
[Android Apps and Games] Artieza:
Hmm, seems like I missed fooView in browser chooser on Nougat. It was here before, isn't it? ?
[Android Apps and Games] mermade:
[MENTION=7171610]fvalpha[/MENTION]: I have a suggestion.

Moving the floating orb over certain links for example "pediabooks.top" or "zarabook.club" from any app (ex: Notes or Web browser address bar, etc.) and long tapping until "A" appears (for text) shows a small window with the identified text. The first option at the bottom of this window is a Google search icon (magnifying glass icon). After selecting the above link and tapping on Google search opens the page directly instead of doing a google search. However, selecting certain other terms (single words for ex: "Chrome" or "Browser") and tapping the icon does a Google search. Can you therefore add another icon (could be something like a Globe for opening the link directly and tweak the first option so that it should just do a Google search for any text term (including a link) and not open any page directly?

Another way to look at this is after copying a link (for ex: "pediabooks.top"), we see a bar at the top of the window that shows the copied text and remains for about 5 secs. Tapping the menu (three dots) does not show the "Open" option. It only shows open when the copied text includes the format "https://pediabooks.top". Can you also add the "Open" option for those strings that are separated by a period (basically a link) always in the menu (and not just when "http(s)://" is included) so that the app tries to open any copied text as a link. Of course, it would not make sense to have the open option for single words like "browser" or "computer". Let me know your thoughts.
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
It‘s registered as a browser by design.

In which app？ Have you set the default to other browser?
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
Currently the address with "." will be seen as a web link and will be opened directly, you can long press the search button to choose a search.

Will improve it.
[Android Apps and Games] mermade:
Thanks, I never knew about that. So the "long tap to search" feature works fine, however, the bar that appears at the top for about 5 secs only needs the option "Open" for links (with a period). Hope that will be added soon. Thanks a lot!
[Android Apps and Games] Artieza:
Can't understand. It was here on Lollipop. But now I see only Firefox and Copy URL by Text Aide. It's Nougat. ?

---------- Post added at 07:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:15 PM ----------

Got it. In the system settings I have "Browser" prefs. Changed from Firefox to fooView and got fooView in chooser but lost Firefox. What the stupid system. Could you bypass it and register your browser like Copy URL of Text Aide?
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
It should be the same logic in browser or clipboard, that is, tap for link, long tap for search. If it doesn't work, please give an example and I will test it carefully.
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
FV can only be registered as a http opener in the system and it's done, all the left is decided by the system.
[Android Apps and Games] Artieza:
But I have other app which put their point into chooser without registration!
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
According to system requirements, if an app can open some kinds of format, it need to

register itself somewhere to let the system know. In this case, we need to open http:// URL, and FV has registered the schema in the manifest. Can you please give an example, and have I missed something?

thank you for your great app. i really love it.

i have a bug report.

forgive me if i post at wrong section.

i asigned to launch 'home button launcher' to long press FV circle.

(see https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dynamicg.homebuttonlauncher)

it working well, but sometime it take few seconds to open home button launcher.

i have no clue for this lag. i tried keep home button launcher on memory but it didn't fix lag.

also i asigned to launch 'home button launcher' to long press home button.

(used 'Assistance & voice input' in Android's Settings)

it never cause launching lag.

my environment is huawei mate10 pro, it running oreo.

FV is fooView Beta V0.8.9.0.
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
When back to home using a gesture, FV will just send a message to the system, then the system will execute the action itself, so it should be the same action by design. I guess this system has modified something or put some restrictions on the app, we will follow the issue.
[Android Apps and Games] alien_jiggy:

Issue with fooView screen recorder

it's a really good design app to have in mobile device. Here I found an issue with latest version.

I'm using HTC 10 with iceview function (the cover that will make the device go to sleep mode)

whenever I use screen fooView recorder function, iceview will be disabled automatically.

I have to restart the mobile to make it work again. As soon as I use fooView screen recorder again, problem occurs.

Is it possible to solve this problem?

Thanks

My phone's getting choppy and laggy when enabled. Anyone with similar experience? I Have redmi note 3 pro (Kenzo, 3gb), NOS 8.1.
[Android Apps and Games] piersplowman:
Applications not properly being identified for purposes of excluded apps function.

Two cases I have identified:

1) Having my email app in the foreground, I go to Notifications draw-down to open up my password vault app (currently using two as I am transitioning, both are excluded from fooView in settings) and when I open up either vault fooView is "watching", clicking on the Hide (via Notifications drawdown to fooView settings) it identifies the app as my email app.

2) Opening an excluded app from within an applauncher (in my case AppDialer Pro) fooView is "watching" in the excluded app. Again, opening the fooView Hide settings it identifies the app as AppDialer Pro.

Thanks

back <-> forward browsing in Web Browser

Hi,

it would be nice, to have the action in the web browser to go back (that's what we can) <-> or to go Forward ( !)

Like browsing on the Historie (it's only back browsing possible).

I miss the "Forward Browsing"

So you can have action on the symbol - swip to the left go's one URL back <-> swipe a litle bit to the right go's one URL Forward ( when exists )
[Android Apps and Games] shaqman89:
Would also love a way to go back in the browser. Also, a one tap to change the current url, so that it doesn’t always opens new tab.
[Android Apps and Games] hotcell:
As there are wishtalks, it would be useful to have resume functionality on broken file transfers. It's crucial on big file transfers. MiXplorer has an implementation, it can even continue a partial transfer when left by another program. That might be improved by watchdog on failing transfers and AUTO-resuming in background (option in settings). That way even unreliable network connections will complete say 1 GB big file transfer in a single click, without user forced to check and redo after timeouted or otherwise. Thanks!

more feature requests

1. I am big fan of fooview and I recommended this app in reddit but they asked for tutorial. May be a youtube channel dedicated for fooview will solve this. People normally skips tutorial at start.

2. Choosing own rendering engine instead of system webview. So that we can use Adblock and already signed in websites.

3. Fooview is not good in rendering XDA pages. It looks really awkward.

4. We cannot choose default browser. I have two browser and I always have to choose browser. Making a browser saves a click.

5. Option to direct open Youtube and play store link direct in their respective app will be useful. For now we have to click open in browser to open in apps.

6. All button at bottom for easy one operation. I have put fooview icon to top which makes it easy until I have to use keyboard.

7. How to get search function in app switcher?

Hope You Will Read This....
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
It should have no impact on the system by design. You might try to disable the accessibility permission to see if there's something wrong in the system for this permission.
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
No this feature in current version. We would consider about it in the future.
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
Currently Forward is in the menu. We will enhance it in future versions.
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
In current version if you restart the task, it will be resumed from the last break point. We will enhance it in future versions.
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
Thanks for the suggestions. We're keeping improving it.

For 7, handwrites some letters, such as "b", it will show matched apps in the app switcher.
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
We have found occasionally, the system misses sending messages to fooView (or others) to tell them current app has changed, so fooView won't update the current app list. It might be a system bug, we will consider how to deal with it.
[Android Apps and Games] piersplowman:
Thanks. One possible approach is to have a way of setting it to be active in only a number of selected apps (or via notification pulldown). It still might misidentify and not enable it where needed but the pulldown could work around that when it is encountered.
[Android Apps and Games] abhinandanbr:
Nice app. Very useful. It almost beats google lens.
[Android Apps and Games] hotcell:
Maybe I don't see a setting, but looks like FS can't keep file timestamps (touch command) like X-plore for example? Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
I haven't used FS or X-Plore, Any requirement example?
[Android Apps and Games] hotcell:
I'm sorry what I meant is file system does not reflect original timestamps on file copy/move. Maybe the problem is on my end? The X-plorer file manager seems to have some builtin means for preserving timestamps. Some other file managers use touch command from toybox or busybox.
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
Sorry I have misunderstood FS.

When a file is copied, the time will be modified normally as its time when copied in fooView.

However, if you use other file manager to copy it, the manager might have its own logic.
[Android Apps and Games] hotcell:
Exactly. So what other file managers do offer as an option is the ability to preserve the original (source) file time stamp. That's my wish for fooView as well. Is that reasonable expectation from a modern file manager?
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
Will enhance the time field in the property.
[Android Apps and Games] hotcell:
That would allow to touch file timestamp to allow it changing on demand. Also, a global setting to preserve timestamps on file copy/move would be expected. Some may still prefer having file timestamp set on the time of transfer. Or are you going to make it always on feature?
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
Thank you for the great advice!

We're keeping improving the app and there will be more features and customized options in future versions.

And we will look into the Google+ login issue.

Hello

1.The new feature sounds awesome but how to use it, please can you explain with an example

2. How to play video and do browsing at the same time on fooview multiple windows??

Because the video is not playing on separate window when I am browsing in another window
[Android Apps and Games] fvalpha:
It's still in preview for suggestions, we're still improving it. After the feature is completed, we will provide more guide for it.

Long press the window button on the titlebar to float it, you can open multiple floating windows at the same time.
[Android Apps and Games] GuyFromMars54:
First off, I have to say thank you SO MUCH for developing ES File explorer (sorry things haven't gone well since).

Secondly, I'd ask you to look at Swiftly Switch by De-Studio on the Play Store. I like this app, because it allows me to nest a folder, in a group. ...I'm trying clean up & simplify by having some preselected go-to apps, then various frequently used categories, as well as a "general" category that is my catch all where I can place various apps, folders, etc in a grid. Nesting folders is important to me for organization (I wish ASOP had this built into app drawer). Also being able to adjust icon size and spacing, as well as add a text label next to each group, or maybe even a custom Icon. Also, when making a group, I'd like a multi select option. Great job! :)
[Android Apps and Games] hotcell:
I think auto-transparency would introduce a combination of worse visibility (i.e. usability) AND the same blocking surface area (as large as initial one). That might appear as a good solution for say full screen media players etc. but in practice will block keyboards, or first/last/leftmost/rightmost column work area on the screen with less obvious visual control thus making the user experience actually worse. I think the current sliding to the edge with keyboard autodetection with visible retraction of the fooView blocking area is more suitable way to go.

Just a random thought.
[Android Apps and Games] Domnea:
Yeah you right, but I refer to implement auto-transparency by default ONLY for full screen apps, personally I like the full clear view of the floating icon but when I go into a full screen app(let's say a video player) it's common sense that I want to see through floating icon. For me 90%transparent works very well, and the floating icon is still visible and functional. If I choose show only bar or hide but remain active, often I miss clicking on it...which causes frustration especially for new people.

Some few examples(for sake of argument the size of the icon doesn't matter) , let say I want to see the icon 100% opaque on Facebook but when I open a video full screen(inside Facebook) I want to have 90%transparency. Same for YouTube, and this goes for pretty much all apps. It is a pain... to setup all the apps manually. Again ONLY when the app goes full screen.

For games it's different and not to difficult to manually setup the icon. Some games don't require touches on the side and for all other games we can use the settings which are already implemented.

I remember when I installed first time fooview, it was like: "wow this button is so cool" ... after few minutes I started my daily routine, then when any app was full screen it was like: "how I get rid of this ####" then I started to hide the icon on those apps , then do it again for every full screen app installed, frustration for many miss clicks... And even after so many months of use I still get frustrated sometimes.

By nature this app is so powerful, it needs to be on top of all apps to use that power, but is difficult to set up,not easy to move... Sometimes annoying.

It's just a suggestion, perhaps there are already other ideas to be made and what I said doesn't matter. Still a beta.
