Okay, I tried it, it's not for me. Would be WAY better if the track pad was logarithmic so the cursor was closer to your thumb as it got lower on the screen, eventually meeting your thumb when dragged low enough.

If it had that feature (and played well with the bluelight filter I use, twilight) I'd be sold on it.

I'm not sure what system you're on, but mine does do that. Not all the way down so they're touching but it goes from a little above my thumb when at the bottom, to my thumb being around the middle of the screen with the cursor at the top of my phone display.

Edit: I think if you dig around in the settings you can change the distance. But it's probably behind the paywall.

I think it might be possible only in the paid version, but that's exactly how it works, you just have to increase the Cursor area in Swipe zones settings.

And it does stay under the Twilight if you give Twilight the accessibility permission.
