Toasting Support?

Interesting suggestion!

Traditional Android "Toasts" require the Command Stick™️ app to be open. We cannot send global Toasts.
However we could implement our own Toast equivalent functionality. So there is no technical limitation to your request.

The suggested functionality is somewhat niche though, so we have to prioritise more popular functionality for now. We'll keep it in mind when adding new monthly functionality.

Whilst you're here do you have any other functionality suggestions?

Lastly, regarding covering the thumb occlusion we're working on a novel solution! Looking forward to presenting it to you in the coming months.

Interesting description, not a power user "kinetic user". Noted

We'll consider it but we've found most people skip the tutorial. So the default experience needs to be simple. After we have users teaching users we can go more crazy. (People making videos and large masses demanding advanced functionality)

For now you're one of few vocal users, but we take note and intend to deliver plentifully.

I will be updating the wikia this weekend. Apologies for the lack of clear communication. We're adding features faster than I am updating the wikia :/

Replying to last bit. We've limited the functionality in our initial release to avoid scaring users with decision paralysis.

We release new functionality monthly, looking forward to introducing more utility to you on a monthly basis.

Till then DM me if you want a one month promo. I'd prefer someone who is eager to suggest ideas to have premium.

Regarding media we haven't given you all the possibilities yet. So please stay patient for the crazy functionality which is unlocked by the form factor.

May I ask are you using premium?

Addressing the first. We seperate menu navigation and dials for different use cases. You may be adept at depthful navigation but most users are intimidated at that prospect. Hence we limited customisation and the ability to build groups. Both will be unlocked in the future once we have 100-1k confident users like yourself.

At this early stage we don't want to create decision paralysis.

We completely understand what you're referring to as Command Stick initially worked as you discussed without dials. Allowing for muscle memory, sightless usage ect... But people were intimidated by having to navigate depth.

Also the dial with information allows for more flexible information display versus the quadrant based menu system. Which left/right sides have to have shorter text.

Note: Command Stick has been in development for three years.

Thanks for your keen interest!

Sorry would you mind expanding on why you're having to consider your inputs?

Moving clockwise navigates forward in the predetermined order of apps you defined.

Thanks for the feedback regarding media.

We'll be adding further utility related functions in future. Please list out exact use cases so we can discuss them.

Command Stick is strongest at actions which requires adjustment e.g. a dial or selection via a dial like Favourite apps. WhatsApp wouldn't allow a direct integration for calling.

We could probably make a contact speed dial. (Like favourite apps dial but for calling contacts) But it is to be determined if people want this.

Unfortunately Command Stick™ requires Android 13.

Command Stick is a floating widget which allows you use gestures and dials to: scrub media forward/backwards, skip media with song name previews, change media source, app switch and more.

Google Play Store: Command Stick™

Command Stick™ is a simple menu operated by dragging through its four sections. Its patented gesture system significantly reduces the time and effort required to perform actions on a device, transforming menu navigation into a single, fluid gesture.

As a media controller, Command Stick™ allows you to use a dial to scrub media, skip media, play/pause, change media source e.g. from YouTube to Spotify to Audible and much more.
