[APP][2.3.3+] Devbro Appdrawer 1.3.280

Introducing Devbro Appdrawer by me(Devbro)
What is it?
This is a appdrawer replacement. In the normal appdrawers that exists right now, you can only organize your apps in generic ways(alphabetically, more recently used,...) or in folders that make accessing your apps one step further to reach. No more worries. Devbro Appdrawer now fixes this problem. You can organize your apps in folders and swipe to access them. It can be easily replaced with all general appdrawers, just replace the shortcut in go launcher, ADW launcher and etc. Or you can create a shortcut to it for daily use.
What else can it do?
You can organize your folders in whatever customized order you like. It is also possible to uninstall or view each app's info just by long clicking on the icon.
What is the cost?
It is free. No catches of any kind.
What are the permissions for?
I am looking to see how my app will be used by other people. So There is a small code that send me a list of your folders and how you organized them. There is also a list of how you ran your programs.
All data that are being sent are generated from within the app. nothing else is sent. If you do not like the idea you can simply disable it from the settings menu. If you like to do this manually, there is also an option for it in the settings.
sdcard access is needed for backup and restore
Do you like my app?
If the answer is yes, then just use it and tell your friends about it. You can also give it 5stars in the market.
Do you have a suggestion/Did you find a bug?
Just post it here and I will look into it. Thanks in advance.
Do you want to help?
As per suggested, I need a new icon. If you have seen one that I can use post a link here please.
Which feature that you like to see next?
1. dark theme, theming options - done

I am strongly considering this. It may take me a while as most of the code that I am using are not part of GB. Fear not I shall find a way to do this.

would it be too much to ask for a direct download link? I don't have wifi access and can only download from download sites :s

Galaxy S3 brand vodafone crash

I am glad to hear I haven't done any major testing on 4.2 yet. Are there any problems?

Good idea! It works fine in my Galaxy s3 with mihome launcher. My feedback is this:
1) app icon should be more like a generic launcher icon. Current icon isn't representative of what most people are used to looking for an app drawer.
2) hide the title bar so it feels more like a native app drawer. Maybe even give the option of a transparent background.
3) default black theme looked ugly because the folder label had a white background. How about making the folder label background transparent and underlining the name instead?

I am seriously considering all your good advices. I am not a graphic designer, it takes longer to come up with more effective graphical designs. Creating icons are not easy it may take me a little longer to create or find one.

By shortcuts I meant to put it on your screen as a widget.
The goal of this app is to improve the speed that you find and launch your apps. So you spend less time finding them.

Re: [APP][2.2+][BETA]SidePanel - Swipe from Edge to multitask
There are lots of apps like this, so what makes your app different than the others, such as GYF, Unity Launcher Swapps, Glovebox, etc? I think if you put why your app is different in the op, then more people will try it out.

Good to see an open source alternative to other solutions
Huge Wallpaper Collection

Good luck with the app.
Downloading now, will report back tomorrow with a review,
Thanks dev.

Looks like it has a lot of potential. Can't wait for more updates

I've tried every Side bar app out, but I'm already liking this one more (and I haven't even downloaded it yet) because it's open source.. :cyclops:

Thanks for the great work! Now lets hope people work together to improve this project instead of making 1000 forks...

WHUT O.O
Great job...

Good work!!
Trying it right now. Keep it up man!

Hi!
Very very nice work!!!
With Xperia S .55 FW there are some problems when launching apps from background. Home and Phone not working properly - SidePanel ForeClose.
I can translate it to polish if you are interested...
Thanks for great job one more time.

If it would have been a paid app, I am sure that nobody would have sent you an apk. I don't think that something like this is common behaviour. (Don't you know how long it takes to develop a good application? I think that we should pay the small amount of money the developers ask for.)
But as this app is a free app you can download it yourself. It can be found on Google Play.
However, I think that you are not really interested in the app. If you were, you would have read the first post. Then you would have seen where to get the app.

I using GYF side launcher and have tried all the other side launcher but GYF launcher have themes, it´s nice.
But this app I like more than the other side launcher apps (apart from GYF)
Have install it.

any plans off adding quicksettings(like toggle auto rotate) or widgets?

There are lots off sidebar-apps available but the only once that DON'T suck are the onces that are integrated into the LAUNCHER.I hate the swipezone off the sidebar-apps (the all have it) because it overlays my UI/top app (launcher/or app that is on top off the UI). No such problems with "sidebars" that are part off the launcher (like for instance: tsf shell)
Hope this sidebar-app will do better?
ps: in tsf shell (which i buy-app, i know) i can activate an app with 1 swipe movement (i don't have to scroll through "pages'') The sidebar i use is the horizontal one (i have hidden the vertical one). Looks a lot like the quick launch bar in an Apple-computer.

tested....
hey I tested the app and I guess there are some bugs:
- I have to swipe from right to left to activate the panel on LEFT side
- the high and weight of activating area is not changing
- notification icon shows also if I uncheck it in options
- grey area for activating panel is everytime&everywhere showed (should it be like this?- I dislike it) (Screenshot)
- if I open panel somewhere also settings appear (Screenshot)
Hope you can improve the app to remove that bugs!

OMG..!

[APP][4.0+] Awesome Icons - Customize Home Screen Icons

Awesome Icons is a completely free application for using icons from various icon packs on the home screen without requiring a third party launcher or rooted environment. It allows one to pick icons for applications one by one, even mixing icons from different icon packs. One may also customize the label for the shortcut – even removing it entirely for a completely different feeling on the home screen.
Features:
- Use icons freely from any icon pack for the home screen shortcuts on the default launcher; most icon packs are supported.
- Customize labels for the shortcuts on the home screen.
- See icons suggested for applications from all icon packs at once.
Please try it:

Tried it out briefly on my HTC one (m7). Works well for the most part, but does seem a bit buggy, (at least with Sense 6).
Creating an icon from the app menu creates a HUGE icon that has no label and cannot be moved to the launcher bar. If I create it through the app, it works correctly.
Unfortunately, it cannot find the phone dialer app. This makes it unusable for me, as I wanted to change all of my lockscreen shortcuts to be themed with my launcher icons (nova).
I hope you can fix this in future editions. This is the one uncustomized item I needed to change to make everything seamless. [emoji4]
EDIT- Also, a suggestion... A dark theme would be awesome for people who work with white icons. It is very difficult to see them on the light cream background (Circle White Icon Pack).

Thank you for trying it out.
That huge icon is actually a widget. The feature is not documented very well right now, but the idea is that if you create a widget, you can make the icon larger than a normal shortcut. (Ordinary shortcut uses the space for label even if you empty it.)
I can't imagine why the dialer is not showing up, but I'll certainly look into it. It's probably an HTC custom dialer application, but if it shows up in the application menu, it should show up on this app as well.
Also you're perfectly right about the need for different background to preview the icons against. I'll make a note of it.
Thank you for the feedback.

Yeah, I use an HTC One (m7). Sense 5+ uses whatever you have as your dock icons for the lockscreen. Since I use a custom launcher (Nova), I don't even see it on my home screen, yet it allows for the seamless lockscreen look.
I also use glovebox, themed with my desktop icons.

I see an update in the pay store today, however, I believe it has the same update description... 'System icons now show up to use'. Was this a bug fix update, I didn't notice any added features (hoping for black background option).

Hello again. Yesterday's update was just a quick fix for wrong icon sizes on some devices with no new features; the market description is now updated to reflect this. Thank you for the reminder.
I think your previous suggestion about the background is a much needed feature and in fact it's right on top of my todo-list for this application. Right now we're working on another big project, though, so I'm not sure when I can get that to that one.

It's great. Here are the things I really liked:
It's available for android 2.3
Fast
All apps search feature
Small size
Here are the options I would like to see in future version:
In my phone, the icons looks big and blurry. So option to reduce all icons size would be great.
Disable icon labels on dock.
Disable icon and show only label for a particular shortcut in homescreen for minimalistic look.
Delete folder with all icons in homescreen.
Hide selected apps in "All Apps" drawer.
Disable all animations to make transitions very fast.
These are my suggestions. But, I don't want the launcher to become heavy and slow because of implementing these features.

I would give this launcher a shot, if it had alphabetical sorting of the apps in folders.

superb performance (as expected) :good:
love the "hola cult" idea (original apps - go for more , market and stuff) :good:
suggestions:
- agree with most of thhose mentioned before (if not sacrifising size/performance)
- ability to hide dock/status bar (shown with gestures)
- custimizations for default clock/weather widget [i get "applications is not installed on your phone"?! am i missing something?]
- theme mixing
keep up the great work! :fingers-crossed:
p.s. think i'm gonna give up on nova

Like Hola
I am using Hola for an older phone running gb 2.3.4 and I like it. Its small and fast. I agree with most of the comments above. Although I would prefer an app drawer, I could live without it if I could simply sort apps alphabetically in the folders. I am using it with Swapps and Smart Shortcuts, so my apps are organized already. I just stick the hola app folders on their own home screen and ignore them . I used Go Launcher Ex for a long time but it was buggy and it blew up my phone with the latest update. Hola is much better.

Love Hola
I love it, too!!

This is the launcher I currnetly use and I must say its amazing!!! I am gonna give it 5 stars. I needed launcher that was stylish, feature filled, innovative, but also didn't drain my phones memory and battery, and didn't run slowly. This is that launcher... It's PERFECT! Please don't stop your work on it. I highly prefer it over my stock launcher.

Pretty Gooooooooood! :good:

Landscape mode on tablet?
Does the Hola launcher have a landscape mode? I would like to use it on my Moto Xoom tablet, but I can find a landscape setting -

app grid
Hello, I started using Halo launcher and I like it.
But I am wondering can make all app alphabetical list be like a grid, not list - a grid with some pages, like original Android launcher? Is the list only layout?

Brilliant! Just one more thing...
The launcher is awesome! I already try a lot of lauchers (I'm kind of addicted on trying launchers... Kkk) and hola is incredible.
Thw ability of being beauty's and fast really satisfied me.
In my opinion, the only thing that is missing is the capacity of remove apps and folders from home screen. This is very important to me actually.
Tks, hola for the win!

A simple widget that displays your most recently used applications in a grid. Blacklist apps you don't want showing up and style the widget to match your home screen theme (IAP).
Instead of cluttering up your home screen with tons of app shortcuts just add a single MRU widget.
All your most recently used apps show up automatically, ordered by most recently used or most used.
FEATURES
Blacklist allows you to exclude any applications you don't want showing up in the widget.
Whitelist allows you to include only applications you select in the widget.
Customizable grid dimensions
Force right to left layout, for users with larger devices
'Most recently used' and 'Most used' modes
Icon pack support
Per application icon selection
Lots more styling options that allow you to create a widget which perfectly fits your home screen's theme
IMPORTANT
Requires Lollipop device with usage stats access, you will be prompted to allow access if it is not already granted
Some Samsung and LG devices are missing the Usage Stats APIs and are therefore incompatible. Check in device security settings for 'Apps with usage access' (near the bottom) to see if your device is compatible.
To hide Google App from widget blacklist 'Voice Search'
Marshmallow users may want to disable battery optimization in Battery settings
REVIEWS
A must have little app
Out performs all others
This app makes use of the Usage Stats API introduced in Android 5.0 Lollipop. You will be asked to enable access to Usage Stats upon first run.
Please let us know if you find any bugs. Thanks!

I want to try this app but it is incompatible with my Note4 (Android 5.0.1) used in Macao.

Sorry to hear that. :crying:
Does your Note 4 have an 'Apps with usage access' option in device security settings? Near the bottom?

Love the idea but haven't actually tried it yet. One question/request...would it be possible to have these in a regular homepage folder?

That's something to ponder. I'll put some thought into it, thanks for the idea.

Thank you. My reasoning is that I like to keep my homepage fairly clean/simple/minimal. The widget is a little much, but if I could have all those apps behind just a single icon it would be fantastic.
Either way, good work. Android FTW

I just pushed an update to Google Play (v0.4) that allows for a 1xN grid. So you could have a tall column then shink it down to one home screen space, making it vertically scrollable.

Functionally similar concept to Hangar's widget, would be interesting to see where this goes

I def like the idea. Would it be possible to get like a contextual widget that shows apps by location for example home, work, out and about gym.. Car etc something like how the HTC sense home widget work's?

Icon label color is based on background color. Dark backgrounds have white text and light background have dark text. If the background is transparent then text color is based on the launcher wallpaper.

Can an option be included? I am on Note4 stock TW launcher and the icon labels are white. I cannot see the labels since my wallpaper is black but I want my background transparent.

Glad to hear, some other Note 4 users were having issues. I'm pretty sure it's Samsung removed some of the Usage Stats APIs.
News:
I've got icon pack support coming in the next version. :good:

Ye I like it.. Also not sure if this is possible but.... Would it be possible to get it like a contextual widget that shows apps by location for example home, work, out and about gym.. Car etc something like how the HTC sense home widget work's?

Respone speed when click icon to open is quite slow

This works for me. Thank you OP!
Just one request: I noticed that when you switch to 3 rows, the labels are not shown immediately. You still have to scroll down to see the labels on the bottom icons. It would look a lot better if you wouldn't have to scroll down. (2nd screenshot)

Should look into allowing icon packs to be applied to the widget.

Looking good

I just don't get it with Samsung peeps... We have a list just pull out your spen and wow look at that, a list of apps that I currently with my spen. Oh about the list of recent apps... Hold down the home key... I can pick from 20 apps that I had launched. Didn't use an app to do it.
