Is the Edge Panel a bit much?

Is it supposed to be like a dock? I’m using Nova Launcher and then I found the Edge Panel and it is a bit much but for those who use the default launcher is that the idea?

Edge Panels are a samsung only thing, but I use a similar app on my phone.

I use it less as a dock and more as a way to access stuff I want to quickly be able to go in and out of.

For example, the 2fa app I use auto closes when I copy something to the clipboard, so I just swipe into the app, copy it, and I'm back where I was.

Its also great for apps I don't use frequently enough to want on my home screen, but when I do need them I don't want to hunt around for them

What is the app you use ?

Aegis, its not on by default, but its recently customizeable, so play around with the settings

I meant the app similar to edge panels.

Oh, sorry, it's called "Panels" app store says it has ads, but I just denied it network access and I've never seen one.
