Ease Touch is an Android app that enables users to control their device with a single finger, even when they have dexterity problems.

It captures all touches on the screen, distinguish voluntary touches from non-voluntary ones, and allows the user to perform most standard gestures, such as tap, double-tap, drag, swipe, and pinch.
Designed for people who have a traumatic brain injury, cerebral palsy, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's, and essential tremors; or for relatives, caregivers or assistive technology professionals.
It provides three modes to filter undesired touches:
- Accept on release mode. Once the user's finger starts touching the screen it can be moved freely without triggering any action. A big cross shows the user the position of their finger. When the user releases the finger, the action is immediately executed.
- Accept by time mode. Like the previous one, but when the finger is released a visible countdown is started. When the countdown expires, the action is executed. If the user touches the screen again during the countdown, the action is canceled.
- Hold to accept mode. To perform an action, the user must keep touching the screen until the countdown expires. If the user moves the finger or releases it, the countdown is canceled.
An on-screen menu allows the user to choose the desired gesture or another action to perform.
The user can go back or home, open notifications, show running apps, zoom in and out, scroll contents and perform swipe or pinch gestures.
