the functionality is good but the app gets killed sometimes, however the main issue is it's making my phone lag a lot on every unlock. Whenever i disable the apo everything is fine, but when i enable it, almost every unlock takes 2-5 seconds to become responsive

This is a thumb saver. Sometimes I forget which gesture does what. But I'm still glad to have it. I'm trying various minimalist launchers, and it's really nice to have the Edge Gestures bar available on the side of the screen to use the functions I've set up.

This is a very useful, versatile app. I especially like the "Pull & slide" gesture capability, to just slide to adjust volume & brightness. I would rate 5 stars, if there was some setting to adjust (shorten) the distance the edge overlay has to be pulled in, for the "Pull & slide" gestures. If there is such a setting & I've missed it, please let me know. Then I'd rate 5 stars.
