## Description

**Micro Gesture** is an innovative Android extension that leverages gyroscopes to detect subtle phone movements, enabling seamless one-handed navigation on large-screen devices. It harnesses Android accessibility services to provide intuitive controls such as back, multitasking, and notification pull-down through customizable rotations along three axes.

Users can adjust motion sensitivity and receive feedback via vibration or text. With up to 12 distinct gesture commands, Micro Gesture supports a variety of built-in actions including toggling WiFi/Bluetooth, locking the screen, screenshots, simulated taps/swipes, and app launches. Additional features include volume key triggers, notification-based actions, app-specific gesture customization, and a flying mouse mode for enhanced one-hand operation.

The extension further empowers users with powerful automation scripting capabilities, allowing complex sequences triggered by screen elements or specific apps. Discover a smarter, more efficient way to navigate your Android device with Micro Gesture.
