NeXtep v1.1.0 adds new workspace interactions and text customization, and improves ColorOS 17 compatibility.

Updates

  • Added long-press dragging for slot apps: move to an empty slot, exchange with an occupied slot, or exchange with the main window, with target highlighting and placement animations in portrait and landscape
  • Added moving slot apps to the background by dropping them onto the control area, keeping the current main window unchanged; workspace drags no longer trigger the ColorOS drag-and-share panel
  • Added consecutive app placement from Recents: center a task card and tap an empty slot's plus; Recents stays open even after filling the third slot
  • Added opening the playback app by tapping the media card's artwork or title; apps already in a slot exchange with the main window, while transport buttons retain their playback actions
  • Added looping for both short and long custom text, searchable system fonts with previews, 10–28 sp text sizes, and bold styling; disabling scrolling centers the text and ellipsizes overflow
  • Redesigned the app with Settings and About tabs and support for light and dark themes; About includes update checks, releases, source code, and license information
  • Fixed ColorOS 17 workspace backgrounds not matching the current live wallpaper, and duplicated scaling and misplaced input on assistant profile and settings pages
  • Improved returning landscape fullscreen video to a slot; verified Bilibili scenarios restore the complete portrait page while preserving playing or paused state
  • Fixed the floating brightness slider offset during dragging in workspace mode, with both sidebar layouts verified

Requirements

  • Android 16 / ColorOS 16 or Android 17 / ColorOS 17
  • Root access
  • Zygisk and LSPosed installed
  • Primarily tested on OnePlus PLK110; the latest features and compatibility fixes were verified on Android 17 / ColorOS 17
