Description
*SAMSUNG USERS* Enabling Accessibility causes TalkBack to also become enabled. To fix: Settings -> Accessibility -> TalkBack Settings, uncheck the sound options. Go back to System Settings -> Application Manager -> scroll across to All -> Disable Google TTS and Samsung TTS applications.*Now with unlimited colours*
*ROOT required for full functionality* Menu, Back and Search are rooted-only buttons - all others work on non-rooted devices.
Emulates hardware keys (Home, Menu, Back etc) and overlays them on the screen, on top of all applications. Single-swipe action (see video):
• Choose the number of buttons you want, position them
• Lock Screen animations including Gingerbread-style TV off (requires 2.2)
• Change button function (vol up/down, lock device, expand Notification Bar, Camera, Search)
• Alt-Tab functionality
• Change Button sizes and colour
• Adjustable Transparency
• Separate, independent configurations for portrait and landscape
A fully-featured but time-limited trial is available.
Perfect for Tablets including Nook Color or devices which lack hardware buttons.
To uninstall: If you've enabled Device Administration for the lockscreen, you need to disable it before uninstalling. Uncheck the permission in-app or go to Settings -> Location and Security -> Select device administrators and uncheck Virtual Button Bar.

Absolutely Brilliant I've newly rooted my Galaxy Tab 7.7 and am using this app together with Honey Bar to replace the annoying honeycomb status bar. I like how I can resize the buttons in Virtual Button Bar to make them larger.

Great app Add ability to bring up task switcher recent apps and it will be 5 star. Currently only supports one recent app.

Great App I have both this and Button savior on my tablet. Overall I like this much better. I only keep the other because of its long press features for writing apps and listing most recent apps. Hope you get around to adding that to this app. And maybe another button or two. Still a 5 in my book.

A must have app for a Kindle Fire I was looking for just something like this app to augment the CM7 running on my Fire. The lack of a hardware home button was a slight annoyance, and this little app made a huge improvement to the user interface experience.

Already a great app with lots of potential Works perfectly on my Samsung Galaxy Tab. Like others I tried the demo version first and within 10 or 15 minutes I bought the full version.

Just what I needed Perfect for tablet users to move buttons to a more convenient place. Please allow us to drag buttons to another side of screen without opening the app.
