Re: Do you guys want Swipe UI gesture on Android?
 

Video which you mention presents very not fluid experience. But I saw video presenting Xposed Swipe Back which is very fluid.

Only pros of my app is that it doesn't need root.. My Swipe UI looks uglier because it cannot show app behind when you are swiping out (Android limitations).

So I don't think that there is any sense in finishing this app. Just install Xposed and Swipe Back.

Do you guys want Swipe UI gesture on Android?
 

Ok, just for clarity. I know that there are lot of people, who don't want to root their phone, because they don't want to break their phone or lost warranty (or something else).

So, I will cleary describe what will my app do:

1. Minimizing app will be customizable (you can choose left, down, right, top edge. Preffered edge is right, because there is no status bar, nav bar and hamburger menu.
2. While doing Swipe gesture (let's say you are swiping from right edge to center of screen) there will not be visible home screen in background. This is limitation of Android SDK. I am thinking about some text in background like "minimize".
3. Works for every application, also for OpenGL based applications and games.

I wonder if anyone is interessed in this app now. If you want this, please repost or click "thanks" button. If no one will like it, I will stop developing this :D.
Thanks for attention!

No need for drama, you're great if want to share your hard work, and you'll get what you deserve

Re: Do you guys want Swipe UI gesture on Android?
 

I wouldn't mind trying it

Re: Do you guys want Swipe UI gesture on Android?
 

So if you were to have a preview of the background, do you need to allow your app to use root (like the xposed module) or it's because yours is an android app and not an xposed module?

I think it would be nice to get the Jolla Launcher app running correctly. Currently it works, for the most part, on Android Kit Kat and fails on Lollipop version. Is there any interest in getting this going?

Re: Do you guys want Swipe UI gesture on Android?
 

Did Jolla open source the Launcher app? Now THAT would be nice.

I had the Jolla angry birds Stella launcher running at one point on my Sony Z1c and z3c tablet and it was ok. The icons were scaled badly and the transitions weren't so smooth but it was nice to have a nice UI and a working calendar, SIP and navigation. ;)

Re: Do you guys want Swipe UI gesture on Android?
 

I felt the Jolla app didn't scale that well on my tablet but looked ok on my Note 3. Btw, this is what I use on my Note edge. I have Swipeback2 to swipe apps and I use Total Launcher to have a swipe interface with my different screens including app drawer. For example, I swipe to the Ieft to get to app drawer and then it scrolls vertically to get to all apps. I like this is better than current Jolla set up to get to apps. I also set up one screen with widgets to put a todo list, message notifications an a calendar. Jolla integration of notifications is better though. All in fun!

I would like to have the Jolla Launcher back.
I've seen various apps offering swipe-a-like stuff by hooking into various Android APIs (inc. accessibility) but nothing which offers the "full package" as we know it.
kubaork - I assume your app does something similar - is your end goal to get similar to the Jolla Launcher?

Re: Do you guys want Swipe UI gesture on Android?
 

This is just an Android App. My app will be for users, who don't want to root their phone but still want to get Swipe Gesture.


No. My app will only work in background and will give you possibility to close/minimize app by Swiping from edge.

But my app should work with any launcher :)
