Managed to get it working after restarting my phone! Awesome! Thanks so much. Would give you 5 stars but would like to see maybe some changes to preferences. A setting to allow people to make the bar bigger to fit two or three apps across so don't have to scroll down forever. Or as someone else had said, an option to put a bar on either side. Thanks guys for a job well done!

Tried loads of others before this one, they were all too fussy. This just does what I wanted and is very easy to set up and use.

U70%
by U####:

Usues a strangly large amount of ram for an app that does so little. Also similar issues to other uses takes AGES to open apps sometimes it will just hang there frozen... wish I didnt purchase it :|

Y70%
by Y####:

Despite the fact that there's a persistent configuration message in notifications, the app keeps stopping for no apparent reason. This is not a good thing.

S70%
by S####:

Shortcuts didn't work on sidebar and sometimes there's a significant lagtime after tapping icon.

U70%
by U####:

Worked well until the Android Nougat update, not able to make folders, change icons etc.. fix better come soon or I'll be looking elsewhere.

Worked before;but,not working now.Developer,please simplify your license-checking procedure,to make sure that this is not a spyware sending out the user's app-list every now and then.

M70%
by M####:

This is an awesome side bar launcher. Exactly what I'm looking for, I can create folder and so far it's reliable to me. The developer have good communication, response to my email quick. The only thing I don't like about it is it uses to much RAM. It uses more RAM than the system or the 414 app I have on my phone. Averaging at 220mb ram. I hope they will do something about it. Other than that it a great and I want to thanks to the developer for creating this app.

Every time I try to use another app it won't let me give that app any permissions at all as ray pro causes screen overlay detected message on galaxy s7. Turned ray it off now.l RIP Ray. Enjoyed whilst it lasted.

X70%
by X####:

This is a great app, jumping between all my apps is now very quick! Only issue is the "Tap to configure" in the status bar which is always there. Please fix. Other than that excellent app!

M70%
by M####:

1) The pro-version occasionally displays "unregistered version.Please register" message,usually after the device reboot offline.This somewhat bothersome. 2) The Ray-Pro icon looks ugly on a dark background;the diagonal black section separating R with Pro joins the background and ruins the icon.A different art-design or choice among two icon-types will be beneficial(free-version icon actually better in this respect).3) Why need a huge amount of RAM(32MB) to run this app?

I've tried other sidebar launchers but Ray is the most responsive. If you're looking for a good sidebar launcher I'd highly recommended Ray

Would give 5 if I didn't get "tap to configure" in the status bar all the time. I'm happy the way I've configured it.

I've tried many of these so called launchers. By Gage, this is the best. Worth upgrading to paid.

Will be contacting Google wallet for a refund!

S70%
by S####:

Was great for a couple of hours until my keyboard started malfunctioning and it wouldn't open any apps until I pressed the pnone's back button. Have started using Smart Taskbar 2. It is less intuitive to learn and doesn't look as pretty but it also doesn't mess with my OS.

This is an amazing app. Added folders, shortcuts, apps. Cut my home screens down to 3 clean pages. Got access to everything with a swipe.

These jokers will cheerfully take your money but will also cheerfully ignore your support emails.

Does what it's supposed to, nothing more nothing less. Would like it if the "configure" button would disappear from the notification bar.

This is an example of first class software development at it's finest. I tried several other sidebars for my Galaxy S5 and this one has no competition at all. It is very simply the very best with no close second. End of story.
