App Searcher

Unfortunately for us Android users, Android does not come with a built-in search engine for opening apps stored on the device.
On iOS, a swipe down will reveal a search bar where a user can search for an already downloaded app, click on it, and have it open in seconds. The Android counterpart, however, has to click the "Apps" button and search through the grid of apps until they find the app they are looking for.

Have you ever needed to use an app really quickly but have no idea where it is on your phone? Common examples are Shazam (identifying music), QR code readers, calculators, and converters.

That's when App Searcher steps in.

It's simple yet elegant, clean, easy to use, and, most importantly FAST interface allows the user to quickly search for an app and have it open in milliseconds.

FEATURES

★MEMORY EFFICIENT - App Searcher uses very little memory, usually 80% less memory than its competition. After several tests on different Android devices, AppSearcher was not found to cause any lag, hog memory, or decrease battery life.

★VERY, VERY FAST - In terms of the time to open the app, view all of the installed apps on the device, and search for an app, AppSearcher smokes the competition. Activate the app from either its actual app icon, the Notification Bar, or the Chat Head, and the app opens instantaneously. The search algorithm is also great, allowing you to search through hundreds of apps with ease, accuracy, and quickness of response.

★VERY CLEAN - Each app listing is alternated between two text colors and there is enough space between two apps to not allow accidental clicking on the wrong app.

★OPENS APP RIGHT AWAY - Just click on the name of the app you want to open and the app opens right away.

★AUTOCOMPLETE - You don't even need to finish typing the full name of your app. Just begin typing "Fa" and "Facebook" will show up. You can then click on it to open the Facebook app in seconds or scroll down to see all your other apps that start with "Fa".

★ALPHABETICAL OR MOST USED (NEW!!) LIST OF INSTALLED APPS - The easiest and cleanest way to just scroll through all of your apps. Double tap the screen, or swipe left or right to show a list of your most used apps.

★WORKS WELL WITH FEW AND TONS OF APPS - I have over 450 apps installed on my phone. App Searcher works perfectly and is able to open any app in seconds.

★RUNS IN NOTIFICATION BAR - Swipe down from anywhere to activate the Notification Bar, click on "App Searcher", and the app will open allowing you to search for an app. This is honestly the BEST feature as it is the QUICKEST and MOST CONVENIENT way to open any application. It's very easy to access (just open the notification bar), very easy to remember (notification bar), and uses very little memory

★BOOTS ON START - AppSearcher will show up in the Notification Bar even after you turn on or restart your phone. This means it's always there, especially when you need it most.

★CHAT HEADS! - After you open the app, a small chat head pops-up on the screen. You can drag it all over the screen, or long click it to make it disappear. Short click it and it opens App Searcher. You can also disable the chat head or switch the chat head's icon

★THEME OPTIONS! - Choose between Android Holo Dark or Light

★UNINSTALL APP - Long click on the name of an app to prompt a menu asking if you'd like to uninstall the app.

★CLEAR RAM

DEVELOPER NOTE:
To be completely honest, I use App Searcher almost every time I open an app. It's just so convenient. I just swipe down from the notification bar to open the app, type 1-2 letters of the app I want to open, and click on it and the app opens instantaneously.
★ I don't even use the Home Button anymore, I just open up different apps using App Searcher.
