[APP][2.1+] Appsi sidebar, a plugin supported sidebar application

September 13th
Today I released Appsi 1.5. This release includes the following new features:
1. A new (100% free and a part of Appsi itself) page in the sidebar with support for
- App widgets in the sidebar
- Home plugins (Appsi specific plugins, more below)
- DashClock extensions
2. Full freedom in placing the hotspots and the amount of them.
3. Fast scrolling support
4. More cutomizations and look & feel options
5. Music player controls (with special thanks to xda member Dr.Alexander_Breen for his excellent guide)
.. And a lot more.
September 4th (beta 1.4.21):
It's been a while and I think it is time to give you all a little update on what's going on behind the scenes in beta. I am working on fixing the issues that are left and hope to release the upcoming version as Appsi 1.5 soon.
I have got tons of new cool features coming up. To name a few:
1. A new (100% free and a part of Appsi itself) page in the sidebar with support for
- App widgets in the sidebar
- Home plugins (Appsi specific plugins, more below)
- DashClock extensions
2. Full freedom in placing the hotspots and the amount of them.
3. Fast scrolling support
4. More cutomizations and look & feel options
5. Music player controls (with special thanks to xda member Dr.Alexander_Breen for his excellent guide)
.. And a lot more.
The Home Plugins are small extensions to the home tab/plugin. The are small plugins you can add to the home tab in Appsi. They can be used to show things like, missed calls count, launching certain intents and a lot more. There is an open source sample project with docs on Github. And there's some instructions right here.
If you are looking for screenshots, take a look in the G+ beta community.
July 30th: Version 1.4 released
Last weekend I updated Appsi to version 1.4
New features:
1. Customize the size of the text and icons
2. Change the spacing between the items
3. Global search
4. New icon
July 15th: Version 1.3.3 in beta.
Very small amount of changes for this beta. Moving to production on 18th if no issues arise.
1. Option to minimize the notification. (no icon and smallest possible notification, no extra actions etc)
2. Bug fix for android 4.0.3 and 4.0.4 devices, causing crashed with hardware acceleration enabled.
3. Fix issue with long texts on items in the sidebar when there is a title and a description. The title will now also have ellipsis.
July 13th: Version 1.3 released.
Today I moved version 1.3 from beta to production. The following changes are probably going to make 1.4:
Improved search: Search through all apps, even if the section is disabled. If you have plugins, search will include all results from all plugins.
Live folder support in Appsi (add a live folder as if it is a plugin)
If you have a suggestion, just let me know.
Also I will add new translations once they have been completed. This is just a matter of time. If you would like to help out, pm me.
July 6th: Version 1.3 beta released.
I just finished uploading the new beta version of Appsi to Google play. This new version contains the following new features:
Proper favorites manager
Contextual action bar to perform actions on long press.
Switch plugins by swiping left or right on the sidebar
Updates to all plugins for the contextual actions
Fixes:
Fixed a bug in the icon caching mechanism
This is a beta release, so for now only accessible for beta testers (wanna be a beta tester? let me know). This version will most likely move to production within one week.
July 1st: version 1.2.4 was released
Although it may not sound like a big update, This version adds support for the following new features:
* transparency in the sidebar
* the ability to choose a background image for the sidebar
* Choice between light and dark theme
* Improved the way to get the data from the plugins.
* Improved user experience, especially for new users.
Special thanks go out to all the people helping with translations and beta testing. Thank you very much!
See https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.appsimobile.appsi for the Google play listing.
Appsi sidebar is a sidebar application for android. It comes with an embedded App plugin (more about that later) that allows you to see all your apps and add your favorite 5 apps as favorites.
It supports 3 distinct gestures when opening the sidebar, by default they will all open the sidebar normally. The gestures are moving horizontally after touching the hotspot, moving up or moving down. For each of these you can set the action to perform, these actions are:
- open the sidebar (default)
- open favorites swiper
- open recents swiper (needs plugins with recents)
- open plugin swiper (swipe to the plugin you'd like to open and then open the sidebar)
The swiper is the same as what you might know from other apps (like swipepad), it allows you to open something with one single touch, by moving your finger from the sidebar to the item.
The hotpot is either on the left or right side of the screen, it can be positioned manually and can be as big as you want.
Thanks to the wonderful people on this forum Russian translations have been added in the latest version. Also simplified Chinese has been added. I'd like to know what you all think about this app
Appsi is plugin based (and supported). This means it allows you to buy plugins to extend the functionality. This is not needed for normal operation, but it will add more types of things you can add as a sidebar.
You can either add a hotspot for each plugin, or use one hotspot for all plugins. The opened plugin can be changed by tapping the title of the sidebar.
If anyone has suggestions or improvement, either for plugins or Appsi itself, please let me know.

Appsi 1.5 release

Hello everybody,
If there are people out here that would like to test the app and provide feedback that would be great. I am open to suggestions and have a list of upcoming features. One of the features I just released as beta is the ability to change the alpha and to set a background for the sidebar. And the ability to be always up to date with the plugins (no need to load the data when the sidebar opens)
So if you'd like to do beta testing, send me your Google account (e-mail address) and I'll add you to the testers list.
If you do not want to test the beta version but would prefer to test the current version, that will also help very much.
Any feedback will help.
Thank you all!

If I'm right, this sidebar uses a service as "sidebar", doesn't it?
All other apps I've seen start up an activity if you touch the gesture area. If you press the home button and try to launch an activity from the gesture area, it has a 5 second delay.
So that's a really good thing.
Overall UI looks pretty good, which makes the users first thoughts about the app very positive.
ActionBar in the sidebar is awesome and usefull.
Logo isn't the best I've seen, you could improve that.
This is my opinion 4 seconds after installation.
Edit: search bar is very usefull

I will try it ASAP and report.
I tried a lot already.... almost all to be honest, and i stick right now to a cryptic one but which really work well. Can be used for inspiration, so here it is (and i am not advertsing, ok. It is just for reference as this one is relly unknown) : overlay launcher.
Gonna install your app and report from my of course subjective point of view.
Cheers

Really like it thus far! Would it be possible to make it easier to switch between plug ins, I.e, when the sidebar is open instead of going to the top to switch plug ins, maybe you can swipe left and right within in the sidebar to switch between plug ins. It will make it a lot easier to use instead of going to the top.

It is mandatory to add an option to dismiss notification from the notification panel... It's way too big, and it is very annoying for me!
App works really well indeed, and I'm looking forward to try a couple of plugins!
Keep up the good work mate!

Thanks! Yes I know I'll ask try to find someone to do some icon design later on. Will become better. I am focusing on improving the usability right now and other performance improvements. They are all in beta now, and if no more issues are found in these versions, I'll be putting this beta to production.

Thanks, the problem with this is running as a service. Android will kill the app if it needs resources. I have tested it and it will kill it quite often and restart it within a few moments. I can add an option (a discouraged one) to disable running as a foreground service. I can also suggest the user to disable notifications for the app if running on jelly bean, and take them there. Another thought was the ability to set a 100% transparent icon so that it does not show up in the notification bar.
The upcoming version (current beta) adds the following features:
custom backgrounds on the sidebar
light and dark theme (dark theme is the current theme, light is like holo light)
better synchronization between appsi and the plugins. (less data loading needed and better user experience)
Improved getting started experience (visible hotspots until the user disables it and an arrow showing how to open the sidebar once the hotspot is touched)
For the next version (after the current beta), I will add the following features for sure:
Favorites manager: Manage the favorites in a proper way and allow for an unlimited amount of favorites.
Navigating between plugins with a simple swipe.
and possibly:
integration with live folders
widgets plugin (already working on this)
Thank you all, and if you have any more ideas or suggestions, please let me know!

May I add something to this already rich and awesome list?
I would REALLY REALLY LIKE to have the possibility to add shortcuts to the apps plugin (as I can do on the launcher screen, for example). That would be really helpful!!
...Maybe also an option to change app icons and names, and a way to hide the "X" for apps removal (which I find quite ugly, this function might be moved to a separate and specific menu to add/remove things maybe?) ?
you may also think about offering an "all plugins package" at a discounted price, rather than having to buy all plugins separately (which, btw, makes the sum of all prices quite high). So that the user can choose if selectively buy the only one or two plugins he needs at their actual price, or directly going for the full thing.. I hope it's clear what I mean!
Cheers and keep up the good work!!
Should you need some beta testers... You know where to look

Yes, the favorites manager will at first be used to replace the current way of adding and removing the favorites. But later on it will also be improved to allow changing names and icons. Also I am planning to do something with icon themes, I still need to determine how and what, but a new theming format is not what I am aiming for (we are talking several releases in the future now)
Shortcuts is definitely on the list of to-dos for the apps plugin. I can't say yet when it will be added but it is something that will definitely be there in the future.
Well beta testers are always very welcome. The XDA Android app testers community is a good starting point, https://plus.google.com/communities/100406373096097711894 . If you join this group and opt-in for beta testing at https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.appsimobile.appsi you'll be able to get the beta version. I still need to add this community to the plugins, I will update my original post with the details when it is done.

Appsi sidebar is well beyond 1000 downloads from play store! Yay!
I really recommend this app guys, try it out and you'll see that it is even more comfortable to use than it looks!

This feature is included in the beta that was released today. I loved it from the moment it worked. Very good suggestion

Today the beta was moved to production. See the original post at the start of the thread for the changes

Very cool app and working great so far.

New Beta release, for all of you who want the notification icon gone, it is in beta now!

I'm joining this too.
Gonna try out.
Keep the good work.

New version released, 1.4 see original post for details

Newest version is great!! An awesome improvement, really!! Appsi is becoming more and more polished and feature rich, while staying lightning fast. Can't think of anything better!!
Now we only need some more theming options, like changing icons (as we do on launchers like nova, apex...)
Cheers and keep up the good work!!

Appsi crashing
Firstly, after 24 hours of using Appsi, I have to say that Appsi has become one of my favourite apps. It is well done and provides needed functionality.
However, from time to time Appsi freezes and the only way to get the sidebar back is to force close the app from the application manager and then restart the app.
I'm using CM 10.1 (Android 4.2.1) on Samsung S3.
Any idea why this is happening?
Cheers,
Eran

Never ever had a freeze or FC on Alliance Rom.. Maybe the problem you have is only tied to aosp roms and not stock or derivative ones?

[App 5+] SlimLauncher [Discontinued] [Fork | Open Source]

Since I don't have the time too support this project. At the moment I will not longer support or update this project.
Hi,
I want to share my fork of SlimLauncher, the popular launcher from SlimRoms. It is based on the latest 7.1 branch but works on Lollipop+. Since in the actual SlimLauncher many settings from previous versions are missing, I implemented the things, which I mostly missed. All features (also app shortcuts) from original SlimLauncher are working also.
Screenshots: second post
Downloads: third post
Added features:
dark/light theme
enable fullscreen mode
hide dock background
increase padding of folders in the dock
hide apps
Resizing icons
lock screen (gesture)
open notifications (gesture)
By users requested features:
Icon pack support (I think this is possible in near future)
Changing colours in app card (I think this is possible in near future)
Swipe right for Google Now (will not be implemented by me)
Google Search Bar (will not be implemented by me)
date on the desktop (Pixel like) (will not be implemented by me)
Notes:
This app can be installed beneath the regular SlimLauncher. The package name is "com.android.launcher3.unofficial", the app name "Launcher3". My source can be found here. I also started apull request on Github. Perhaps it gets merged...
Important:
I made this for my personal use. So if you want more features to be implemented or have some other suggestions, you can tell me but be patient. I have also other things to do. Don't ask for ETAs. If you want to help me, just contact me or fork my Githubrepo and send a pull request.
Thanks

Looks nice , clean, simple, and smooth. Don't have to much features. :good::fingers-crossed:

Thanks for taking the time to re-compile this amazing launcher.
I've attached screenshots from the classic v1.2, which had TONS of features that were for some odd reason removed from newer builds.
I'm currently running v1.2 on HTC M9 SENSE 8 Nougat, and it's working 99% well.

Yes I tested it also, but a few things I'm missing:
- fullscreen (who needs a clock in status bar on homescreen, when having a widget?)
- missing appshortcuts
- increase padding between folders in the dock (n needed of I use more than four items in dock)

Icon pack support would be great as I'm stuck with squares lol.

Filling that space after disabling search bar would be nice (in apps card).
Also. Resizing icons and layout in card apps.
I'm talking about place from screen.

is it possible to add icon support....that would be best.....simplest launcher with icon support ???

I suggest adding a date on the desktop (like in Pixel Launcher) only this thing I'm missing. Good job.

thanks for the dark mod ?

So interesting man, nice modern 'n compact design. I'm gonna try it later!

very nice launcher and indeed slim

Candy7 ROM comes default with SlimLauncher. This is a perfect candidate for replacement without going to another launcher.
Big thanks for this. ???

I will look at it, when I have the time next days... Even didn't recognize it, since I never disabled searchbar...

Sure. Changing colours in app card would also gladly welcomed.

Disabling Searchbar seems to be fixed. I'll test or a bit and upload an update tomorrow (of out works).

If you don't mind me asking, how do you have custom icons working? And what icon pack is that? They're beautiful.

Awsome Launcher :good:
Thanks for keeping it so simple........i would choose this launcher over Pixel Launcher.
I request you add some features
1) Swipe right on home screen for Google Now........like what Google Now Launcher offers
2)Google Search Bar and Date........Like what Pixel Luncher have
Thanks

[APP] [1.6+] Emerald Launcher [Beta]

Emerald Launcher is a simple home screen for Android phones. It is based on TinyLaunch code with lots of improvements and is in beta stage. It provides some features to make it easy and nice to use. You can resize layout as you wish, apply icon packs, easily access apps via search or sort them by categories.
Download from Google Play
Source code on GitHub
Any help is appreciated. Please feel free to post suggestions or report found bugs here. Thanks.

Surprising not to see comments here. Just found it on F-Droid and think this is a fantastic launcher implementation. No unnecessary permissions, no ads, no statistics or analytics, good customization, fast.
Thank you so much for developing this. Still playing with it and personalizing. ( Came from using KISS launcher for quite a while. )
　

I was wondering if it would be possible to change a single application's icon ( or all of them but without installing an icon pack ) and found a workaround...
PNG files generated in Emerald's cache folder at /data/data etc can be replaced, one by one or all of them. No need for icon packs. In case this is useful to anybody.
（ ^_^）
　

Hello,
i also would like to thank the developer for this nice launcher. I tried it and found it great, but...
i'd like to have the ability to search contacts and settings and not only apps as Emerald does. Is it possible to add this feature as well as widget support?

Not to sound rude, but the lack of those features is a huge plus for me. Plenty of other launchers are loaded with functions such as those. Try KISS or OpenLauncher for instance, just to mention two out of dozens.
　

Hello.
Thank you everyone for the support and sorry for the late reply. @Ultramanoid, I came from KISS myself. It is fine, but lacks some features such as folders and grid layout, that's why I've forked TinyLaunch and started to modify it.

I'm going to add support for shortcuts, so it'll be possible to search through contacts if you add them on the homescreen. About settings... I think that settings search is unnecessary, because it won't speed up toggling much. Widgets are most likely not to be implemented. You can use EcoHome as a separate screen for widgets, it's very lightweight.

I'm looking for help with testing alpha versions of Emerald. If you want to help, please e-mail me at [email protected] and I'll send you the latest apk with instructions. I have to mention that test apks won't include features for Nougat and Oreo, so if you use these OS versions, please be ready to some bugs and make a backup of preferences. Thanks.

Might want to updated the link so it's not the description (should be this): Download From Play Store

Very nice launcher. I'm using on Nougat on a very special kind of phone (F25). I'm having a problem with an icon pack though. It just contains 2 icons but doesn't get applied in any way.

Okay but.....
Just gave it a quick try and here are my results
1 - adding to the dock, on my phone the home/back/recents button gets in the way. Seems to fix it if I turn the phone landscape and then back. But then it comes back as soon as I touch the menu on the top left - see screen shot.
2 - no shortcuts or 1x1 widgets - not sure how basic you want the launcher to be.
3 - on my phone I prefer to be able to move the things. like your search bar, etc. My phone is an HTC M8, anything that requires 2 hands to do (or reaching to the top of the screen) is annoying.
4 - since you only have 1 screen, maybe making gesters do something - like making swiping on any part of the screen switch categories (instead of the top of the screen).
5- Maybe allow changing the size of the text for the apps on the screen.
6 - If you set to just text, the dock has all little green android
might be more, but not ready for prime time, good luck.

Hello, @bradley_e_smith. Thank you for the review.
1. This issue was discovered already, but I can't reproduce it, because there is no phone with on-screen buttons to test it.
2. Shortcuts are planned and widgets are not.
3. I've updated the app recently. Now it's possible to move the main bar and apps to the bottom.
4. Yes, I'll probably add gestures soon.
5. The text size can be changed through appearance settings.
6. It's a known issue. I don't know what could be the best option to show. There are three possible options:
- always keep dock icons in cache;
- show text labels in dock.

[LIVE WALLPAPER] Borderlight - edge highlight live wallpaper (Updated 02/24/2019)

Borderlight live wallpaper
This is an updated version of the original Borderlight found here. It's a live wallpaper that creates a thin colorful line on the edge of the display (hence the name), the new version also allows you to display a normal background image behind the edge highlight and darken/desaturate it when the device is locked/unlocked.
There is no real way to programatically get the shape of the display in Android, so I did the next best thing and created a preset system, where users can tweak the wallpaper for their phone and then share their preset with others.
I need your help!
See this post for details
Update 2/24/2019:
New notch settings (OP6T and other teardrop notch phones should be supported now)
Pink highlight of the outside borders when changing screen shape settings (makes it easier to configure the screen shape just right - just move the sliders until there's no pink visible)
Update 2/23/2019:
Moved to Google Play
No new features (yet), but they're coming soon!
Update 11/2/2018:
Force black theme on Android 8.1+
Fix red tint on Huawei/Honor/Vivo devices (hopefully)
Fix preset codes not containing notch width
New launcher icon
Update 11/1/2018:
Background image support
Only show border when locked/unlocked
Desaturate/darken/hide background image when locked/unlocked
Black out clipped parts of the screen - the wallpaper looks good on screenshots now
Shorter, less annoying preset codes (with support for the old ones)
Correct rendering in landscape mode
Wider range of border radii - will now support Pixel 3 XL

My HUMBLE suggestions :
1) An option for wallpaper slideshow.
2) Custom wallpapers with the same effects ( like oem logo, geometric shapes, popular shapes etc with minimalism in mind).
3) Option to change colors (or add different gradients, custom color combinations).
4) Presets of popular Phones built in ( Can add from trusted users)
5) Option to enable just a single beam of light (which doesn't cover the whole border).
6) Toggle for; only on notification/lockscreen/charging etc
7) Different patterns\animations for cycle like pulse, fade, etc ( rather than linear motion).
8) Option to change the direction( clockwise or anticlockwise).
9) Always on display.
10) An option to store and load different Presets
These are all SUGGESTIONS and NOT requests.
You have done a Great job in making this app so lite and minimalistic. Once again THANK YOU for keeping the app ad free !! :good:

This new update was all I was waiting for, awesome job with the custom image!
Sent from my OnePlus A6003

Awesome, great, too good!!
Can there be one more setting?
Seperate border size for left/right and top/bottom, u must be aware of black border tempered glass for oneplus 6 covering the sides of screen. If this setting can be implemented then this problem of tempered glass would be solved.

Awesome! The background image I select won't stay in portrait and I can't resize it, but the border is perfect on my Pixel 3 XL! Here's my present, I made sure it was perfect:

That's weird, I did not add an option to crop the image, but it should definitely stay in portrait . Maybe you could try cropping the image to your screen resolution beforehand?
BTW: The images work like this: If the image resolution is smaller than your screen, it will just get placed in the center of the screen, kinda like a logo. And if it's larger, the full vertical center portion of the wallpaper will be used (sides will be chopped off to make the correct aspect ratio).

Does this work on Oppo F9?

Thank you,man

I'm not sure tbh, you can try and if you won't be able to adjust it to the teardrop, I'll make a new version that will allow it.

Great
Looks great works on my 5T

great wallpaper

Great update! Its qorking perfectly with no bugs, i have one request, if you can add a wallpaper cropper, that would make it the best live wp, great work!

Wonderful!! I agree with the other suggestions about being able to crop any picture. Next step is offering a paid version. Or at least a donate option. Your hard work deserves it.

Does not recognize my redmi note 5 pro and displays a notch

The app is not supposed to recognize your phone, you should open the settings and disable the notch there.

Wow. This is amazing. Perfect on 3XL. How do you get it to work on lockscreen? I selected both at initial start and it only shows black screen on lock now..
Thank you for your work.

Does not work on my Jiayu S3A with MAD OS OREO 8.1.0

Amazing. Thanks for this.
Using it on my Vivo Nex full screen... Wonderful. Keep the good work going.

Looks nice but I'd like to use it with my current bg. However I can't seem to find the settings. There is only a big activate button in the app. No options to import or edit settings. Do I miss something? OP6.

A (for me) essential feature is switching between output device (speakers, headphones) from the volume panel.
Is there a way you could add this?
I really like the design of the app, but I need that feature :/

You mean by clicking the settings icon when the sliders are expanded? Isn't there a way for a custom dialog, where I don't have to press back?

There is actually a separate button (once the sliders are expanded). Please update to latest version and make sure the "show media output button" is enabled in settings.

Dude that's awesome! I guess the updated was a bit delayed, because I installed the app after you said you updated it, but only got the update now ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Anyway, this is exactly what I was looking for! Behaves just like on OOS, even better that AOSP 10! Huge Props!
(the label my fourth output device is a bit cut off at the buttom though)
Works really well

When I found this I was like i just hope it works.
And it does perfectly thank you great app

I like this opinion. complete no frills.

a problem i have with the app is that since theirs only a vertical position slider it only sets the vertical position but as soon as i go landscape the volume slider is hidden of the screen because theirs no way to set the horizontal position, im using android 11

Works great
