AnySpot for iOS 9 allows us to use the Spotlight from any screen

The arrival of iOS 9 has endowed Apple's mobile operating system with greater intelligence. This is especially noticeable in two respects: Siri, with its proactive suggestions, and Search, an evolution of what was previously known as Spotlight. In order to use the Spotlight we have to be on the home screen. If we are on any page of the springboard, we can invoke it by sliding a finger down and if we are on the first page we can also slide to the right so that Siri suggestions also appear. But what would you think of being able invoke Spotlight from any screen? This is possible thanks to AnySpot for iOS 9.

Once installed we have little to configure, but important. We will have to go to the AnySpot settings and indicate a activation mode. As an old SBSettings user, I find it comfortable to swipe on the status bar to the left. In this way we can already access the Spotlight from any screen where we see the status bar, but we would have the problem that we could not invoke it without this bar. Here you have to choose what seems best to each one.

We also have another option that it is advisable to activate, which is in the advanced options and is that of the smoothness (smoothness). If we do not activate this option we will see how the spotlight appears out of nowhere and without any animation. On My iPhone 5s it works perfectly with this option activated, but it may not work as well on an iPhone 4S, for example.

As a curious fact, the first time I installed it, the start button worked as if I had installed Virtual Home, but much better. Anyway, my joy in a well, since at some point and without knowing why, it stopped working (although I don't know why it worked at the time either).
