## Description

**DroidLab: Gesture Toolkit** turns motion, touch, and sensor inputs into customizable Android shortcuts. Configure back taps, chop and twist gestures, multi-finger swipes, edge touches, flip-to-silence controls, and more to launch apps, toggle settings, control media, take screenshots, lock your screen, or trigger Tasker profiles.

The app includes a Side Deck sidebar, TouchPad Pointer, Scroll Assist, FloatPin sticky notes, OmniSearch, SnapText, screen translation, and notification readout tools. A calibration wizard, noise rejection, pocket detection, and battery-conscious processing help reduce accidental triggers. DroidLab works offline, processing motion data, notes, and notification features locally on your device. Its Accessibility Service use supports global actions, scrolling, and screen-text scanning without collecting or sharing personal data.
