About Unique Controls
Unique Controls NEVER EVER collects your personal data despite the capability of accessibility service, it just takes advantage of it to click system buttons such as back, home or recents.
Unique Controls - Change the way you use your device
Introduction
This app provides 2 great features, they change the way you use your device as soon as you get used to them you will never want to live without them again.
The first one "Halo" is a little chat head that hovers over all your apps. Halo gives you quick access to your notifications (similar to facebook but for every app) by showing them in a beautiful and intuitive way. You can launch, dismiss and scroll trough all of them. if the notification is from a messenger such as WhatsApp, Hangouts Telegram or Facebook you can also reply to the person from whereever you are without opening the actual app.
The second feature is "Pie Controls". Pie controls gives you the power of gesture navigation in whatever app you are. Simply swipe up from the bottom of the screen to reveal a beautiful menu with your favorite actions.
Both of them are extremely customizable so that you can really make them your own.
So what are you waiting for, try it out and use android as it should be:)

So happy that someone ended up making the Paranoid Android features into both an Xposed module and an app! It's a wonderful addition to Android and adds both intuitive navigation features, and an amazing way to interact with notifications! 10/10 would recommend!

How to use it

It'll be prefect when there's an option to have controls on all sides of the screen the user chooses instead of just one side. Also, encountered a glitch that required me to uninstall and reinstall and the app lost my premium purchase functions.

I liked the pie feature in which 3 buttons show up.... About holo , it doesn't look pretty to those who don't usually get notifications (especially from useful apps).. Pie feature is a great one but its little bit hindering , when i tried to do anything or use any apps ... Those buttons pop up whenever specific area was touched... Also when I was playing games.. I can't even play due to the appearance of those button. Even now I am unable to type properly due to the buttons appearing randomly above the keyboard.. Now uninstalling....

I suggest adding the option for a discreet mode where the preview doesnt pop up. Also if it's possible to adjust the speed of the duration of the preview,. Thanks and I'm glad found this app

It's a useful app but it always loses its permission on accessibility after a few minutes of a locked screen. You need to turn on the permission and activate pie again to run.

Pie always on bottom puts it on the left side. Even if I turn it off.

Love it. I've been looking for a quick access notification app for ages and so far this seems to be just perfect. I don't use pie as I have a gesture feature on my phone. It's great to have two awesome features in one app though and that I can choose one or both to activate.

It's pretty good for the most part, but it keeps disabling itself in the accessibility part of my settings. Not sure if this is the app or my phone, but I really like it when it otherwise.
