Comments on SwitchApps for Android

★★★★★ Great app Make us easier with no more hold home button,just touch float icon,quick and fast.Thanks

★★★★★ I love it. It is best App switcher on the market. But last night my Samsung Galaxy Nore 3 upgraded from Android 4.4.2 to Android 5.0. Then this app can't switch back to desktop (home screen). But switching application with this app is still functioning on Android 5.0. Please fix this. Please...

★★★★★ Great app but.... Great app but the app gets killed itself when opening certain apps like Google current etc. So please fix this.

★★★★★ Finally... Job well done That's the only reliable (i have tried about 70%) app to do the job it's supposed to do even on an un-rooted Samsung galaxy grande 2...Thanks... My home button remains intact

★★☆☆☆ Great app but It's a great app... I'm using it with my Galaxy Note 10.1 I'm having trouble with another app... GMD [which I love]. Fullscreen mode "breaks" SwitchApps. I emailed both developers. GMD developer replied back... SwitchApps never replied. Also, when going into fullscreen when watching a video makes the SwitchApps look weird. I can see the buttons in the bottom.

★★☆☆☆ It's good but... I'm using Sony Xperia SP and the lock screen doesn't work. After pressing lock it still showing lock screen instead of switch the screen off. Tried add screen lock free-button savior to favorite page, it work but screen doesn't completely black out though button savior work completely fine by itself. This could have deserve a 5 rating if lock screen work fine.

★★☆☆☆ Works, but... it doesn't really offer much that other apps don't do far better and with far more features (such as QuickLauncher or Simple Task Switcher). Looks good, but floating button isn't very configurable so it's often in the way. I'm not really clear on what multitouch actions it supports (not documented, other than a message that multitouch is disabled if Soft Buttons are enabled (what are soft buttons? Not documented). 2013-6-7 Bionic ICS. ************* Reduced to one star just now because I'm unable to uninstall the app, even though it's been turned off/disabled. Come on now devs, that's completely unacceptable.
