SideControl ProKey for Android
Brilliant... Very configurable... I've bars to the left, right and bottom.... When typing or in certain Apps or in landscape you can set it to remove the bars, save them getting in your way.
Very good, highly functional and uber-configurable. Purchased pro key, happy to have done so.
Love this app a lot works on every different roms i tried on my mobile...wasn't working on MIUI rom but found an option in settings to make it work!!
It seems to require a restart from time to time...outside of that, it works beautifully on my Galaxy S4
After recent Android update apps giving security error and preventing other apps to get access to Contacts, Pictures etc.
Smooth, easy and really cleans up the clutter.
Love it, can't live without it

The setup and options were easier and made sense - especially compared to many other launchers, *BUT* it was near impossible to get it to open because swiping just turned the virtual screen on my phone. I tried adjusting sensitivity, enlarging touch areas, etc. But never got it to work. ~JTC~
In short, this is like a great combination of all the (strangely) higher rated sidebar apps and then some. Use of the bottom is much better than either side, but you can use all 3 if you wish. The customization is very extensive plus you have homescreen gestures on top of all that. I've wasted money on about 3 pro versions for other apps and even the FREE version of this one is miles better. Takes a little playing around to get familiar, but once you've got it sorted it's amazing.
Four different side bars in one app. I am able to access an app while I using another one.
In December 2014 meaning lots of functions no longer works - hope this development can be resurrected as it used to be solid (speaking as a 'pro upgrade user')
Only needs a way to overlap the status and navigation bars. It looks a little weird with transparent ones.
If you change the length of the side bar to be longer and then change it to be shorter than the bar does not center and there is no way to get it to center. Other than that very cool

The long slide gesture to screen lock is not working on Android L 5.1.1
Quite useful for frequent app's
If you want something that saves space, time and effort, get this app. There are a few more out there, but this one is more solid and doesn't ever crash on my LG. Very smooth and importantly you can customize it.
Edit: I reviewed this prematurely. My problem seemed to be that I turned off the notification from the app itself. All has been working since I turned it back on and "hid" the notification in Lollipop's settings. Silly little error on my part but, it is working flawlessly at this point. Original: It is clear that lot of work has gone into this. I have not read any reviews showing others with the same problems that I am having but, none of the activities that I have tried are working properly. Direct Message says, "App could not be loaded, please reconfigure". Task Shortcut opens Tasker instead of running task. A few small things. Opening apps, which seems to be everybody's main priorities on here, works very well. As I said in the lite version, this app is elegant and functional but, could use some minor tweaks. Keep up the great work! I look forward to an update where this is fixed. Thank You!
Great flexibility and versatility. A couple of tweaks needed: allow addition of app drawer function to favorites; and simpler way to set activation area.
Nice...I already have four different sidebars...Yours is the most detailed with options...Thank You, Thank You, Thank You...THUMBS UP!!!
Notifacation bar, quick settings and data toggle will no longer work. Worked perfectly prior lollipop. Galaxy S5
The best I could find. Lots of customization and does more than I had hoped.
everything available quickly and great for customising how you use your phone
...I found this. Slightly more sophisticated than my brain could handle at first, but worth investment. The only app without LV, and even incorporates Xposed mod, which I already had. It was a relief to find this app after a journey through apps drawers and slides that left my privacy & sanity compromised. This is a very smart app, thank you.
For some reason the toggle mobile data gesture is not writing for me after I updated my phone to lollipop. Also, the app no longer overlays the action (for example it doesn't say "Wi-Fi on" anymore when i use it to turn Wi-Fi on).
Menus timeout, no option, too annoying to use. Otherwise good app.
Don't get lazy!
I've been using stroke gestures on my PC for many years and have been looking for a similar app for my phone for long time! I've been going through many similar apps, but no app I've tried has so many customized features as this one! This is how Android system should be by default! :)
Awesome application to make UI very simple. Shortcut to home button and recent app through taps is very good. Many thanks to developer...
Works ok cool
Great
Is there a way to remove this app's persistent status bar notification when active? (Unchecked box in Advanced Settings but no change)
Good work
Don't get lazy!
After update, not stable, reset sittings after restart
Can I have any feedback when I tap an app icon? Not vibrate, but just darkening.
Well worth the fee. Does absolutely everything I wanted and more! I've used a few other and been disappointed, not so with this one. Sony Xperia Z1, with nova launcher and Elun icon pack.

If you want to be able to open apps, have easy shortcuts for getting things done on your device, this is a must have app. It takes a few minutes to figure it out and get it configured but once you it is amazing
