Tapbar v1.7: Make every tap and gesture on your screen do something useful

Hey everyone! v1.7 is here!

For anyone who hasn't come across Tapbar yet, it's an Android app that lets you turn areas of your screen into shortcuts. You can tap, double tap, triple tap, long press, or swipe to open apps and trigger different actions without having to reach for buttons or dig through settings.

What's New in v1.7

  • Swipe gestures for volume and brightness
  • 10 new languages (machine-translated)
  • Improved landscape handling
  • Tap values to edit them directly
  • Improved zone controls and customization

And seriously, thank you guys for all the support and suggestions. Tapbar started as a simple single tap zone app but you kept asking for multi tap gestures, more useful actions and more ways to customize everything. It's been really cool seeing the app grow from that original idea into what it is now. A lot of these improvements came from your feedback, and I really appreciate it.

Let me know what you think! And if you find Tapbar useful, consider giving it a star on GitHub. It really helps the project get noticed by more people. Thanks for the support!

Tapbar v1.3 is here. 300+ downloads and a major upgrade!

Hey everyone! 👋

Tapbar v1.3 is finally here! Tapbar lets you create tappable areas anywhere on your screen to launch apps or trigger quick actions.

This is a major update with App Shortcuts, 50+ actions, UI/internal improvements, and around 30% smaller app size.

Also, we just crossed 300+ downloads! 🎉

Huge thank you to everyone who downloaded, tried Tapbar, gave feedback, or shared it. Really appreciate the support ❤️

And somehow we’re at just 14 GitHub stars so far 👀
Maybe we can bump that number up a little.
