About this app

Everywhere Launcher is a sidebar app (edge launcher) that allows you to open sidebars by touching/swiping any screen edge so that you have your apps, shortcuts, widgets, contacts always available only a single touch or swipe away.

This app allows to have multiple different regions at the screen edge and each region can open up different sidebars depending on the gesture on it. This way you have all your content just one swipe or touch away, no matter in which app you currently are.

→ Put those handles to the left or right side or even to the top or bottom of your screen
→ Many triggers (gestures) available (slide up/down/left/right, click, double click, long press) which will open a sidebar
→ Enable multiple triggers per handle (for example, you can open "all apps" sidebar if you swipe right on a handle and open "recent apps" if you slide down on the same handle)
→ Sidepages with search functionality and predictive search (T9)
→ Action sidebar - a trigger on a handle will DIRECTLY start an action, it can't be faster
→ Action folders - click the folder to open the first entry in the folder, swipe the folder to open the folder

Special permissions
---------------------------------------------

  GET_TASKS... to get recent tasks on Android <5... doesn't do anything on android >=5

I try to only add special permissions if they are runtime permissions, so I don't and won't add internet permissions. Following special permissions are optional and will be requested at runtime only (on android devices with android 6 or higher) and only if you use a feature that needs it:

  READ_CONTACTS... needed to include contacts in sidebar/sidepage
  CALL_PHONE... needed so make a direct call shortcuts
  WRITE_SETTINGS/READ_SETTINGS... used for special actions like changing volume, brightness and similar

OK, I'd probably only rate this as 4.8 or 4.9 if that was possible. But only because there is one feature missing that I'd really like to have, and because it has so many features it can be complexe to figure out for a new user. But it's well worth the effort. I've used a sidebar launcher for years for quick access to my most used apps, and this is by fat the most flexible, configurable, and capable one I've found. Configure multiple handles (activation areas) in as many locations as you have space for. Put apps, contacts, app and systems actions, or any combination of the above on a sidebar. Access the sidebars with swipes in almost any direction or with double taps. Configure the size, spacing and color of almost anything. Use custom icon packs. And more. It might be helpful for new users if there were some written documentation (beyond the FAQ) of what all the options do, but almost no software actually has documentation any more, so I can't be too critical there. The developer Is very responsive. I sent an email with a few questions and had an answer back in less than 24 hours. WELL worth the small cost for the paid version.

This is such a full featured app! It's really great in paper, but unfortunately it's activation sensitivity just can't match Samsung's original edge panels, which never miss, while Everywhere launcher's detection us just all over the place, with unwanted activations add well as not working when you want it to. I'd say it works as expected about 1/3 of the time. Please note, I'm on a GS8 and the issue might be specific to mobiles with curved edge displays.

Write me a mail and I can explain how you can solve this problem - I use a device with an edge display as well and don't have any problems. Thanks

Galaxy Note 9. Great sidebar, full customization, does not crash or take up much resources. More than recommended. My previous one was constantly fighting with Pie this one is extremely well behaved. Thanks. Perhaps each handle can be a different color.. It probably can but I have yet to look at all the various options. Five Stars. Developer assisted me with customization. Thank you again.

Thanks for the nice words. Nearly all settings can be changed globally and per item - so yes, handle color can be changed for each handle independently. Write me a mail of did not figure out how yet
