** IMPORTANT **
This app uses Accessibility services. Our app offers the use of BIND_ACCESSIBILITY_SERVICE which can monitor your key presses (KeyEvent) and can open the recent app menu (performGlobalAction) if you enable the service.
Enabling the accessibility service gives us the ability to detect button presses so that you can configure an easier/quicker way to open Sideload Channel Launcher 2. Choosing your own button means that you can pick a more suitable/accessible button to launch Sideload Channel Launcher 2 which may help accommodate you or another persons needs. Sideload Channel Launcher 2 does not collect, store or share any of your personal information and this option has only been implemented to assist users. In certain cases we may also use the performGlobalAction Accessibility Service to open the recent app menu.
Sideload Channel Launcher 2 does not watch or collect any user actions or personal information.
