Excellent app! I've just got a Pixel 8 Pro but the navigation buttons are the wrong way around for me and there's no options in the OS to change it. Navigation Bar to the rescue! My only request would be for circle to search be added. I think this might be a Pixel only feature, not sure. Usually you hold the middle button.

Great app for moving to Xperia from a Samsung. Two problems: 1. Cannot use keyboard switcher (and/or accessibility button) because it goes under the bar - if the not only the height but width and position of the bar could be controlled it would be perfect. 2. Lack of settings import/export. That being said, I'll probably buy the pro version to support the dev anyway.

works as intended, except for vibration when pressing the buttons. would get one more star if that could be fixed. I've enabled it in the settings but it doesn't do anything
