Comments on Split Screen Shortcut for Android

★★★★★ It works on Redmi 9 perfectly......there is no issue in this app. Reason for 4 stars:– I use full screen gestures in my phone and this app doesn't work on these gestures. But still, I have got a button on my window panel which splits the screen...... Love this app ❤️
