Use your Fingerprint to launch apps quickly. You can set each of your fingers to open different apps
Want to open an App real quick? Tired of using gestures? Want a faster way to open hidden App? The FingerPrint Launcher is the right one for you.
The FingerPrint Launcher allows you to open an app real quick with a touch of a button, anywhere and anytime. You just have to just select which finger launches which app*, then you hold down the menu button and let the app scan your finger and your done. The app is immediately launched.
You can replace your traditional app lock software which consumes a lot of battery with the help of this App. Most Launcher comes with a hide an app option. So just hide the app and set FingerPrint Launcher as the easiest way to open your hidden app** .Instead of using gestures to open an app which any one can do, the fingerprint remains your alone.
The app uses long press home button to start scanning the fingerprint.
Should work with All Samsung Mobile with fingerprint sensor support having android OS 4.4.2+

DoublePower lets you launch one or more applications at any time when you quickly double-click the power button.
If you set it to launch one application, it just launches.
If you set it to launch more than one application, it launches a menu listing them.
I wanted this so I could launch SuperDim whenever I wanted to adjust screen brightness without going to the home screen from an app.
The beta expires after Sept. 16. I think eventually there will be a free version that lets you include only two apps in the DoublePower menu and a paid version without that limit. Or maybe the free version will pop up a nag screen from time to time. Haven't decided.

I added an option to turn off the WiFi when the device is powered off. Press MENU | Options.
This doesn't work if you both:
(a) use deep sleep
(b) have at least one double-power-click application set
I extended the beta to Sept. 30. Also, you can add to the double-power menu one or more of these: WiFi toggle, Airplane mode toggle, Bluetooth toggle, and HOME (I think you could do that in the previous version, too).
In particular, if you want to have a way to get out of full-screen apps, you can just assign HOME to double-power.
Is it possible to run 2 different apps on screen at the same time , like say youtube and chrome . I'm not sure if the phone has the feature
Well, there is an option to run two instances of one app. So you can use two whats app accounts. And with Nougat update you can set split screen in "Recent Apps" menu by dragging one app to the top of the screen and choosing an other one for the bottom of the screen.
Possible in Android 7.

You have two options.
1. Open both apps, as you said YouTube and chrome. Click back/finger print soft button a bit for multi tasking window, click top of one app and drag till the taskbar and release your finger, there you have it.
2. Open the above two apps, or more. Slide the bottom part of screen to reveal on screen navigation bar if you have disabled it. Click and hold multitask button for a bit. That's it.
What is screen pinning and how do I use it?
Using screen pinning, device can be made to show only a certain app's screen as long as you want.
Screen pinning can be often useful, especially if you want to play a game without accidentally minimizing the app (if you touch the Home button). Though Home button on G5 plus is at a lower level than display, it can still happen.
How to enable Screen Pinning feature ?
1. Go to Settings > Security.
2 . Enable Screen pinning here.
How to pin a screen ?
1. Open an app(to be pinned)

3. Touch the pin icon at the bottom of the overview of app you just opened

(Note: Sometimes you may need to drag up the app view in Recent items view for PIN icon to show)
To exit from the pinned screen touch and hold the Back navigation key.
NOTE: If you are using Moto's one button navigation, the back key will appear to allow you to unpin the screen once you have pinned something. Once unpinned, the buttons will disappear again.
Hope this makes your gaming experience bit better :fingers-crossed:

Using gestures? swipe up on the pill to open multi-tasking and then tap the icon of the App at the top and select Split Screen.
Here's a screenshot

i really liked the old oreo split screen shortcut.....so i made an app that brings it back. (play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.github.ericytsang.multiwindow.app.android)
if you want to use the pill for navigation (instead of the old 3-button navigation), there's an option in my app that lets you display the accessibility button to trigger split screen mode...

I use an app called navigation gestures which replaces the pill with a way more powerful version. It replaces the nav bar entirely.
It can assign any action to any gesture (right & hold for instance) and one of the things it can trigger is split screen.
