Product overview:

SemiPremium is now ready to anchor the pointer and creating touch tap shortcuts. It is recommended to create pixel shortcuts for easy and efficient access to placing the pointer at the correct locations for the apps or browsers used for entertainment on your device. This is the easiest way to use SemipPemium for multiple apps and browsers. Simply edit your wallpaper and create a dot where the buttons you used are placed when the app is active, i.e Skip button on YouTube or time skip ahead on lock screen widget for podcast player. With the dots, you can easily update the button to press without opening the app and waiting for the button to appear. 

Tips and tricks:

  • Some devices reset the pointer position to default when re-connecting and some preserve it. On devices resetting to default position, SemiPremium moves the pointer to the stored location when connecting. Use the correct mode for your device.
  • Press any button after powering on with Wake & Tap to override boot touch tap, or use reboot for longer sessions.
  • If fast forwarding on YouTube hangs on 2x speed when combining fast forwarding, reboot to get unstuck.
  • Some iOS models may have low accuracy due to retina display scaling. Adjust the iOS device system pointer speed to calibrate and offset in combination with pointer anchor shortcuts in the wallpaper to resolve the issue.
  • To fast forward in podcasts, press hold the Wake & Tap button to perform 1x time skip per second until released.
  • Press holding the second brightness step after the initial long press activates auto step to min or max.
  • For Android users, it is recommended to use either Cleantube or Revanced to enjoy an ad-free YouTube experience, as the skip button is not accessible for touch tapping with SemiPremium other than in desktop mode in browsers.
  • You can trigger Google Assistant on Android by long pressing play/pause.
  • YouTube in browsers on iOS can combine both fast forward and skip ad from the same pointer location. If accurately placed, avoiding full screen toggle and the chapter selection, both skippable ads and ad-read segments can be skipped and fast forwarded over using the Wake & Touch Tap button, with single and double press.
  • You can always wake your device to lock screen by using the Wake & Touch Tap button, but SemiPremium can only interact with the functions on the lock screen and not past it.
  • SemiPremium is designed for minimal cognitive and physical effort for skipping ads and the purpose of the 5 sec delay on wake & skip is to synchronize with the appearance of the skip button on YouTube ads with a single press.
  • Rebooting with 45 minutes timeout grants direct access to volume, brightness, play/pause, skipping back and forth in music or streaming apps.
  • SemiPremium supports two sets of screen coordinates and can be used on one desktop or laptop computer
