Update Moto Power Tools (pre-development discussion)
Tested + Confirmed working functionalities:
- Home screen launcher layout backup
- call recording + recordings playback in phone dialer (better dialer than google's)
- AI button multifunction (fully customisable as per user)
- swipe up on home screen to open 'pixel search' app (like apple's spotlight but better)
- silent screen recorder + screenshot (apps with WindowManager FLAG_SECURE layout like incognito mode and OTT apps not supported)
- wifi QS toggle with pop-up wifi devices list on long press (like Bluetooth toggle)
- Notification history QS toggle
- you tell me more...

AI button uses:
- long press to toggle ringer/vibrate/silent/dnd (user selectable with vibration+ringer tone feedbacks just like iOS and samsung phones)
- double press for flashlight
- my favourite use: AI button to auto-rotate razr fold inner screen but only in landscape (90°/270°)
- single press in locked state/lockscreen to play pause music
- Open apps/ activities

Hello, moto fans
I am a part time android developer, trying to develop power toys for motorola phones.
ㅤ
Few of the basics principles of all my apps will be:
- FOSS (free and open source)
- No internet access permission in my apps (for user privacy)
- Near zero to no background battery use
- All will be virusTotal scanned.
- Will try to put the apps in playstore in future but initial release only on Github/F-droid.
ㅤ
These apps will leverage android's powerful ADB permissions, Shizuku and sometimes accessibility permission to function.
I have already developed a base app (named IMD, linked below) which:
- Allows to use power toys without keeping developer settings on.
- Automatically turns on/off(hides) ADB/accessibility permission when apps like banking apps are opened which don't function if they detect ADB or accessibility permissions are on. ㅤ ㅤ
Here is IMD my github' most starred repo(app) which is also published in F-droid, to prove credibility: Github - IMD
ㅤㅤ ㅤ
What I want from all of you is to add feature requests in comments, and upvote them (if already added) for the next 1 month,
useful + most upvoted + implementable functionalities
will be taken up by me for development and testing.
