Edge panel open apps as a popup? - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers

I've never been a fan of the edge display or the shortcuts and panels, not sure if I'm the only one thinking that samsung put a half baked feature.
Anyway I was asking if someone knows of an edge panel that lets you open apps as a floating window or popup, like opening the calculator, calendar or browser.

Hi....If you want to use floating windows go to .......Settings >> Advanced features >> Multi windows and set what you need........it's very simple and you're not required Edge panel for that.... [emoji6]

Thanks @Xode,
What I meant is to have a shortcut to launch them in a floating window directly.

Omg..double post again

@Xode, thanks, no problem about the triple post lol.
I know about that feature, but it's not what I also want, I want some sort of app that creates a shortcut that launches apps in floating mode directly,
it would really be nice to launch apps like the calculator from the edge panel in a floating window directly!
Thanks again for your help!

Maybe look at Swiftly switch sidebar or the Pro version . Also try apps edge from Galaxy apps (see next post for screenshot)

Screenshot referred above.
Ignore my post. Reread the op.

Ultimate Launch

Ulitmate Launch is a Today Screen launcher that works in a similar fashion to iLauncher or SBP Pocket Plus except it is much better. I have been using it for about a week and i am sold. It is far and away the most useful today screen app and it uses very little memory. You can also set it to not load tabs until they are activated saving even more memory.
Ultimate launch allows you unlimited tabs that can either be placed at the top or at the bottom of the launcher. The tabs can be switched with finger or stylus gestures or by touching the tab you would like directly. The animation for switching between tabs is customizable and offers a cube like spinning which will no doubt keep you playing with your phone more than you already do.
Ultimate launch is also able to nest other today screen plug-ins so you can have HTC home on one tab, Weather Panel on another.
www.ultimatelaunch.de is the website to go get this fantastic application.
You can use standard XP Icons to further customize your tabs and programs.
To find Icons-
Google of course
Deviant Art - www.deviantart.com Awesome site all the way around but many artists on here sharing thier works for free.
CrystalXP - www.crystalxp.net Similart to deviant art.
This is my current set up-
http://img29.picoodle.com/img/img29/4/2/27/f_ULm_bb15642.gif
I have 7 tabs I have it set to spin as you can see I have it set to show all of the icons but blur the inactive icons.
Added some icons http://www.megafileupload.com/en/file/111588/Ultimate-launch-icons-zip.html for you to use if you choose.
this was a good application too bad it has not been updated over a year now ... but i think spb mobile shell had used this idea to make it more useful IMHO
I loved this program on my Mogul...
Too bad he didn't take the next step and try to make it into what second today or TF-Detacher is...
Probably impossible to anyway...
I like it very, very much. Is one of the best ever.
Nice Post
Couldnt find anything newer to plagiarize?

LOL. That's pretty funny.
I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and assume he was just trying to spread the word on a (at one time) great program

Use fullscreen with the browser

Hi,
I remember i could go full screen (hide the address bar) with S3 but it dont see any option to do so in S4 browser.
Any one know if its hidden somewhere or samsung removed it?
I really like the air gesture so would like to stick to samsung browser but its annoying to have the bar eating up the space....

[Q] Any way to move the notification panel to the bottom of screen(similar to IOS)

Is there any way show the notification panel by swiping from the bottom of the screen instead of the top(default)?
basically is there anything that will allow me to view the expanded notification panel without having to pull down from the status bar?
You haven't gotten any responses because it isn't possible. End of story. New to Android?

Nah but upgrading from a galaxy s4 that has been on 4.4 for 3 years(custom rom) With the new galaxy, its harder to reach the status bar when using one hand.
I agree with you with this one... The navigation bar is a bit of a pain to reach, Although pinning apps to edge bar seems to work OK for me.

then use the one hand operation to make it easier. that's what it is there for. tap the home button three times. that will make the screen smaller, and easy for one hand operation. if you don't have it setup, then go into settings, and advanced settings.
You should try the notification edge panel I bought it straight away then i realised I could of bought the edge notification panel from playstore with the reward app I had.
No way to move the notification pull down itself, but using Nova Launcher Prime (the pay version), you can set up a screen gesture to open the notification shade. You can assign to a downward swipe (starting anywhere on the screen), or a double tap, or other options. Unfortunately, I think this only works from the home page, not from within another app.

Yup. best answer!
I've been using this for years. Still not the same as having a smaller phone though.
Swipe down for notifications, swipe up to sleep.

I should have posted an update but found a work around.
Using All In One Gestures app, I can swipe up from the home button and it will expand the notification panel. This works in any app unlike the Nova option.
Hi, you can use fooView, it allows to expand notification just pulling down the floating icon down, and other actions like back, home, recent, etc. with just one hand.

Guide : how to get the Note 8 App pair EDGE Panel on your S8 or S8 plus without root.

So I have been looking around for the a way to get the App pairing edge panel off the Note 8 on my S8 plus and ran into a free app called Split screen creator on the app store. Did my like the way it set till I started thinking maybe I can add those shortcuts to one of the panels and sure thing the Tasks Edge panel let's you add those shortcuts to it and here you go you have the same exact thing as long as the apps paired support multi window. I take no credit as the app is not mine at all I just did the homework and it works great no root needed or anything and I just thought I would share that with anyone who wants the same panel as me. Also once you're done adding the shortcuts to the Tasks Edge panel you can remove them from your home screen or any screen you have them on and they still work in the panel. Thank you and hope that you guys enjoy. Anyone have a question please ask
You needed pairing app
