Kindly Reminder
Special Instruction:
To prevent system interruptions, if you set gestures for locking the screen or grant device administrator permissions manually, ensure to disable these permissions before uninstalling the app as it utilizes the device administration API as necessitated by the system.
Accessibility:
How does fooView support users with accessibility needs?
In addition to offering productivity-enhancing gestures for general users, fooView extends essential functionality to visually impaired individuals by enabling word or image selection for enlargement, increasing readability. For users with physical disabilities, fooView provides intuitive single-handed features, facilitating one-handed phone operation, app switching, and replacing challenging-to-control hard keys with ease.
Permission:
Why does fooView request the Read_Phone_State permission?
While many apps utilize this permission to read IMEI codes, fooView refrains from accessing such data. Instead, it leverages this permission to detect incoming calls and automatically pause music play and minimize the floating window to prevent overlap, enhancing user experience.
