What are the features of Gesto?
Gesto supports all iPhone/iPad running on iOS 11 and iOS 12. As said above, the tweak enables you to combine the App Switcher and Control Center. Well! It allows you to do the same in two ways.
Multi-Side
In the multi-side view, the App Switcher and the Control Center comes up in the same view with the App Switcher on the top and the Control Center right below it. You can explore all of the options present in the Control Center by just swiping the same horizontally.
Side-by-Side
The iPhone X users have to access the Control Center from the top of the screen. However, with the Side-by-Side view of Gesto, you can simply access the Control Center by swiping up from the bottom of the screen and then swiping left. In order to go to the App Switcher, you simply require swiping right.
