With such a low quality (crappy UI that never improved since the project start, still bad stability after so many updates) non-free app, you really considering people will buy it? How dare you use XDA in the name, I'm not really a developer but feeling this app is a shame to the community. Seriously, just change the name and take the shame on yourself.

Really love the idea behind this app but it's highly unusable at this stage as almost all features force closes. At least the free version should be smooth and good enough to attract and encourage people to buy the paid version. Uninstalled. Thanks.

The idea is very good though it takes forever to load. The basic requirement of this app is to switch between tasks which is not getting fullfilled

Very good idea,original! Looks neat. However I feel sliding my finger around a circle to open one app simply takes too much time. Some might like this ...however I prefer a faster method of getting the apps I want...faster .

Neat concept, but very rough around the edges. Swiping left gives circle launcher, but mine was empty. Whats new lists themes, but there are none. Must get pro.

Well, i installed it thinking it would be fun to check it out, but it doesnt work at all. Whenever i open it, it just hangs and force close option pops open. I wont be able to improve my review, until i can actually see what the app can do. I am using a Karbonn A1+ with gingerbread 2.3.6 that has been rooted.

I think that this app could potentially be very good but unfortunately currently it is unstable, force closing and behaving strangely too often.
