Android 10 gestures are not supported. Please provide support as soon as possible.

[jbriones95]

@gauravhariyani12.gh This is a limitation of Android 10. Android 11 is rumored to allow them

[gauravhariyani12.gh]

You are the quickest community when it comes to customer service. Thanks I’ll appreciate that.

[TheRakesh]

You can use and 10 gesture… It’s possible via adb command just search for “force enable android 10 gesture in 3rd party launcher”

However you may face it bit buggy while using in 3rd party launcher becoz it did.

Help me with this I’m having same problem

[PYRESATVARANASI]

Loving the Update :).

Just got into Ratio Pro, but I love it so much. Takes a few minutes to get used to it, but it is worth it.

[pranav_athalye]

I have been using Ratio for almost a month and loving it. I do have a question though. Right now I am using Ratio Pro on my Oneplus 3. Lets say after some time I update my phone to Oneplus 8 or Nord, then will I have to buy Ratio Pro or I can install it on new phone by using the invitation code I have received?

[AdamH]

I recently changed phone ( due to ab unfortuante incident with the floor), I reset my code at members.blloc.com and was able to reinstall Pro on the new phone

[pranav_athalye]

Thanks for clarifying. I will keep it in the mind…

[mohdnoorain11]

I’m facing battery drain issue it takes around 10% even phone is on standby

[VB1]

It might help to address your issue by disallowing Ratio to run in the background. You can change that setting under Ratio’s app info. which can significantly help to reduce your battery usage further. I myself have tried doing so and noticed quite a significant change.
Disable bllocdesk connection in Ratio settings.
If not required you can disable the News from the Root section.
