Floating Soft Keys *ROOT* 2.2.1

Requires rooted phones. If you don't know what root is, your phone is probably not rooted.

Have you ever thought that the default soft keys are too large? Or would you like to protect your Home button from wearing out? If so, this application may be of interest to you.

Introducing Floating Soft Keys. Leveraging pingpongboss's StandOut libraries, this app offers small and resizable soft keys that can be freely positioned on the screen. Particularly effective on devices with soft keys as default navigational controls, this app pairs best with CyanogenMod's or ParanoidAndroid's expanded desktop mode.

The application has been successfully tested on the Nexus 4. If you encounter any issues with the app on your device, please inform me.

DISCLAIMER: While designed not to cause harm and deemed safe to the best of my knowledge, I cannot be held responsible for any damage to your phone resulting from or during the use of this app. Feel free to reach out for support; however, please note that support does not include monetary assistance. Use at your own discretion and risk.
