Excellent app, I've been using it for years and years, so no complaints really. More of a feature request: it would be nice to have more than one sensitive area, eg on the right side. Eg one in the top half and one in the bottom half of the screen, similar to how samsung's 'one hand operation' does it. Maybe it would be possible to do this running more than on instance, not sure. (I got haptic feedback to work now by turning on 'touch interactions' in 'Sound and Vibration' of the phone settings)

good app, but there is no option for a forward function, as opposed to a back function. don't get this app if this is your goal
