Description
For the more popular, expensive and "BIONIC" X version, go get XOutOf10!So, of course, the internet can't have enough nice things. It must ask more. Well, you asked for it. Here we go.
You heard about Andy Rubin, the co-founder of our beloved operating system Android.
You probably heard about his latest tech company, and their first device, the PH-1.
It is a beautifully designed phone. Ceramic back, Edge-to-edge screen, Gorilla Glass 5. What can go wrong?
Well, apparently there is a thing that can go wrong.
Because there are people where camera notches are not acceptable, and will never reach that's in their hands.
And there are people, where this notch is, in fact, ESSENTIAL. Are you one of them?
Introducing ThisIsEssential by Idoideas, a simulation of Essential Phone's notch for any Android device. Just to make it a necessity for you.

*** Please notice! ***
The app works for any Android device, all the way back to Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0!
Android 6.0+ Users: In your first run, please make sure you "permit drawing over apps".
Android 8.0 Oreo users: Please note that the notch will be hidden when you expand your status bar. That occurs due to Android API limitations set by Google.

Questions & Answers
Q: What is an APK File?
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
