Smart Taskbar 2 (V2) for Android
Used to love it however recently as android phones and tablets change, this app interferes with many apps that it never did before... at all. It disappointments me badly as I've used it forever. Its an awesome APP!
Invasive app!! The last few weeks, this app started turning itself on. I would turn it off, and the next day it would turn on again. Uninstalling because I don't like apps that turn on when I don't want them to. It is an invasion of privacy!
I've been playing with the app trying to set it up for use & I'm finding on the window where you add apps to the labels the scroll bar & pick buttons for the choices are so close I can't pick the apps. It just scrolls away from the pick, so I have recollection to the app & still can't pick it cuz it scrolls away. Put some space between the pick boxes the scroll bar!
Really super but frequently stop working
20161008 - An EXTREMELY useful and POWERFUL tool, well-designed. Works good, but there is a learning curve. Can go a long way toward making your device much easier to use. But it *may* have been abandoned. Web site gives errors. Note: Local icons attached to Custom Actions cause crashes on mine if set using some methods. Using QuickPic to choose the icon fixed it.
This phone really helps to unleash the power of Android phones but the main button is always disappearing on the newest android software. The Smart taskbar button disappears on ky Galaxy Tab, Note 5, Note 4, Note 4 Edge, S7, and S7 Edge. Please fix!!!
Its very useful application specially for mobiles with faulty digitizers. If your Home Back keys are not working then STB is the best solution.
What I like about this program is the speed at which it opens. Important for me. There are better designed apps but none yet that I know beat it's speed. We'll done.
Great app for quickly seeing what apps are open, closing open apps (didn't work with Marshmallow) and setting up your top 10 apps for quick start. Still love and use this app for years!
Horribly unstable in setup/menus, but indispensable once it's up and running
I downloaded it into HTC m9 but never worked
It helps to switch between windows easily. Very needed app.
* how to move app icon from fast access bar? It's easy in V1 but I couldn't do it in V2. . *Why labels icons comes in black&white? . *Add to that no customization at all for back ground color, trigger point shape.. it's a good idea but still needs more

I love your app but with one minor glitch. Is there any way you can get the app to force the screen overlay on reboot? I hate having to frequently having to uninstall and then restall.
The app is exceptional, albeit somewhat counterintuitive to configure. Use is very intuitive and practical. I wish there were a few additional settings and that the GUI could be 'skinned' or adjusted to taste. (I VERY rarely give 5 stars.)
Nothing in Tasks with new Android version (since Android 5). Same problem in V1. On 6 inches screen Edit Label can't select any app as scrollbar overwrites the selection. As someone has said, icon border on task switch icons is ugly
09/27/2016 - APPARENTLY ABANDONED. It's been crashing more lately, and when I tried to check out the site, it's marked as an "Attack Site", which means that either it is, or that the author doesn't care about getting his site off the bad-guy list. Between that and the increasing bugginess, I'll have to call this one abandon-ware. Too bad. Loved it for years! Reducing to one star because it's now buggy and unreliable. Would love to see it refreshed, in which case I'll change the rating back. // OLD REVIEW: I was a huge fan of Smart Taskbar (1 Pro) and have been using it forever. I didn't think it could get any better, but you sure showed me! The flowting trigger button is a HUGE improvement, as is all the faves being on one screen. Loved the old one - love the new one more! One suggestion though - make the faves buttons bigger - the frame's not needed, and bigger icons would make it easier for me to see what I'm tapping. Also, some icons come out REALLY small for some reason. GREAT JOB! Keep up the good work!
Basic feature apps are not moving in another location,and quick lauinch is not correctable also not able to import from STB 1 and back up is not possible
Causing permission problem for my other apps
Continously crashing.
Fantastic app, can we have more features?
I love the 1st version but I'm glad I upgraded. I can use it anytime, even in full screen apps. Adding labels & ability to sort apps (ie frequency used) makes it quicker to get to what I want. Custom widgets allow me to create shortcuts to get to stuff easier, such as app manager. Long pressing icons save time, like when force closing apps. The quick launch gets me to specific apps even faster. It's easy to access anytime & is unobtrusive. There's a few glitches but the many good features outweigh them all!
This app is incredible. Access anything you want from any screen, anytime. Tons of options to customize the look and functionality. I choose to use the small clear tab, and I dock it to the top edge of my phone. The small size in that location means it's almost never in the way, but if it is you can long-click and drag it to a different spot! Unfortunately the developer seems to have gone MIA, no updates in a long time, but it is still a great tool.
I was a fan of Smart Taskbar V1, and I got Pro immediately for V2 too - totally worth it! It's not pretty but extremely functional, and I completely rely on it to navigate my phone. I do however wish the developer would come back and update it further with a better UI and even easier set-up.
Just upgraded ne phone which is comes with lollipop os,and the taskbar app is not working properly, the one click tiger is going to off automatically, i have gone through the settings but wasn't great success,can you please look at this asap?
I have the note 5 and now the task bar does not work. Please fix!
Not able to increase icon size, very difficult to see quick launch buttons.
5 star to one. ..1 month now. ..Hey get this fixed or useless! On my Samsung galaxy note 3, since lollipop update, the recent apps window will not populate on either this or the earlier version of smart Taskbar. I am horribly missing it done multitasking cards on android are too slow to pull up with long press.
My soft keys on my LG Flex stopped working and my phone wasn't very useful.After searching for solutions I found this app that has restored functionality to my phone!
This version won't disappear like last version. I'm addicted to Taskbar. Thank y'all for making my life easier. Merci
Great app, genius! It may be inherent that a persistent app causes a bit of lag for other apps, but the lag is minimal. Developer team: please see if this lag can be reduced in future updates :)
Task tab no longer works on android 5.0.1. This very useful app is now totally pointless unless this gets fixed. I really hope it does.
Can't do without it! Awesome
Galaxy Tab S. Lollipop.
Nice
I finally have to admit it… After tinkering with this app for several hours., I cannot help but greatly dislike the general look and usability of this otherwise good idea. Wish I had better words to say. What this app needs is a designer to make it both functionally and aesthetically better.
Thank you very much for this great app. It's really useful, but unfortunately when I upgrade to android 5, the task tab is not working properly. Please fix this issue. Thanx alot.

This doesn't work on Galaxy J7 with Marshmallow OS. I love this app and started using it when the 1st version came out. I later upgraded to the 2nd version and paid for the pro key. Now I can't use this app without constantly getting error messages every time I open another app. I'm extremely disappointed I can't use an app that I paid for. I hope the issues are fixed soon!
