I'm using this app since last 2 years and I absolutely love this app. It helps me keep everything clean and at the same point everything is accessible by just a click. Recently, I started getting problem. I've installed CM 14.1 for my Oneplus One, running Android N 7.1 As soon as we start the app, it crashes. I really use this app, and if you can make a update to solve this issue, it will be really helpful.

This is definitely not working with MI Home, the hot spots just disapears behind the launcher or something, i really want a sidebar but it seams no one is working with MI Home, is this something you could workout together? i would like to have my running apps in a sidebar which would be great for task switching.

Love the gesture switch between home/apps,& home screen customization. However the app manager (free & upgrade) are seriously lacking in functionality & design. It needs app categories!! "App Arrange+ Quick Launcher" is a far more functional & better looking app manager. Also home screen needs to allow shortcuts, because your contact upgrade is no good. I had to install "Photo+ Launcher" app >shortcut>contact so that I could add decent 2x2 contacts to the home screen. Good app, needs work!

I love the customization this sidebar provides, however I have a couple gripes with it. I only use the Home page but the Appsi one is always a swipe away, I'd like the option to just disable it. On the Home page, I use minimalistic text as app launchers, more often than not this app stops registering my taps on these widgets. Other times they're very slow. Aside from that, I'm loving this app very much and would recommend it to anyone looking for a great sidebar.

This used to be by far my favorite side launcher because of its performance and all of the options of stuff you can add to it. Now that widgets don't work the functionality is cut to maybe a quarter of what it used to be. I still liked it enough to buy some of the other plugins, but returned then when they didn't work. Unfortunately, I never heard back from the developer about either of these issues. Also desperately needs a backup function.

1. Place the Stock Music Widget. Play music. The album art will get displayed. Change to next track, album art won't change. Music widget is just an example, basically any widget (such as, Battery Widget with display of the change in the battery level) is not refreshing. Please fix this. 2. Allow the option to display the bar only on launcher screen and not on other apps screens. 3. Ability to hide "All Apps". This could be done as an option.

About this app

Appsi is your new way of working with your android device. It was featured as one of the top five new Apps in August on Android Police.

PLEASE NOTE: Appsi does not support lollipop, please try Appsii (two i's) instead.

It will save you time and provide you immediate access to anything you may need, like your apps, widgets, your call log or your favorite contacts.

How does this work?

As a sidebar for android, Appsi lives on top of everything else that is going in on your device, you only need to slide your finger over the screen starting at a location of your choice to get access to your Apps and the Home page.
If you have multiple plugins, you can set up more of these hotspots to access their data (for example call log, apps or SMS messages). And instantly call or text your favorite contacts.

What do I get?

By default Appsi has a home page which you can completely personalize. You can add Widgets, Home Plugins (third party developers can create them as well) and DashClock extensions. Home plugins can show you all kinds of information like weather, unread mail count, missed call count and a lot more. Appsi also has the apps page, which will allow you to navigate through your apps. You can also add as many favorite apps as you'd like which will be on top of the list, Appsi will also allow you to quickly search through a list of all you apps and every other plugin you have installed.

You can change almost anything in the appearance of Appsi. Change the transparency and the background of the sidebar. Choose from a light and a dark theme. Soon you'll also be able to choose the secondary color (in beta right now). You can change the font size, icon size and the spacing between the elements.

You get a search bar that you can use to find anything you have a plugin for, or in case you don't like the search bar, you can hide it.

And besides opening apps, a lot more plugins are available. There is a more extended version of the apps plugin in which you can also see recent apps and running apps and you can stop them instantly. It will also allow you to add favorites and show all apps.
There is the Calls plugin which allows you to choose your favorite contacts, will display your call log and list the contacts you selected. By default it will dial the contact you tap on, but this behavior can be changed to your needs. Using this plugin you can call anyone with only one slide.

Many more plugins will be developed in the future which will give you even more control over your device. Once new features are added to Appsi these will be available to all plugins.

Give it a try, and you will never look back!

The additional plugins mentioned above are provided as separate apps and need Appsi to function. Appsi itself is completely free, and contains no ads. The plugins are paid apps, and do not contain any ads either.
