Structural adjustments allow for greater aesthetic freedom. Componentes that were previously linked to a single style now work independently, with customizable icons and textures. Essa’s modular approach represents a significant advancement over past generations of QuickStar, offering visual control at a level close to that of advanced system modifications.

Modo landscape with intelligent layout support

One of the most notable innovations is the resolution of previous technical limitations related to using the panel in horizontal orientation. Antes update, the quick settings panel was restricted to established guidelines for portrait mode. Agora, the system automatically adapts when the device is rotated, allowing buttons to be reorganized and the available space to be better utilized.

The user can define specific compositions for each screen orientation.
