Having much better luck flinging with beta 12 than beta 10. It works now! I also like the long press. You've done an excellent job, thanks a lot!

A bug report: Scrolling when the opacity is anything less than 100% is kind of buggy. It causes the background to sort of flicker, which, amongst other things, makes the background color get a little bit darker/lighter due to the flickering. Once you stop scrolling, it's fine, and the transparency works flawlessly.

A feature request to stack onto your plate: Back button closes it if it's open (as an alternative to sliding closed)

Guys, when you find this application in the Play Store, do a objection in the bottom of the page saying that it was stolen and used to get money even though the uploader did not create the application.

I don't think it's been requested but could you implement the functionality such that the drawer is opened on application launch?

Hi,

Just started testing gyf, and while it's interesting, have a feature request that would make me definitely use this app daily:

Would you be able to expose the app list that comes up on long press / swipe as an Activity?

I use an app called LMT and want to be able to launch GYF app view by Activity instead of by flinging or long press.

Thanks and hope you are able to get the Google Play situation sorted soon!

[Android Apps and Games] thokkalodi:
Is there an option in the app to start the app at boot? I'm unable to find this option. Could someone please tell me if I missed it or the option is not present. I've been using the latest version (beta 14) on my Nexus 7 and Galaxy Nexus and the app does not start at boot after a reboot.

If there is no option for that now, I would like to request the developer to think about it include it if he sees it fit.

Also thanks for the awesome app and your hardwork!
[Android Apps and Games] Hairum:
I'm also interested in this as well.

Anyhow, I just updated from beta 12 to 14.

If you need to upload the file somewhere else, I am planning on creating a file uploader on my website tomorrow so users can upload their files onto my website so they can be downloaded.

Tell me if you need it so I can get it ready, you upload that file and I will sort out the directory, meanwhile do NOT say out the uploader link, just PM it, don't worry I will sort out the security of it.

Love the activity in 15 but it flashes a screen before opening the pane using the auto open activity.
[Android Apps and Games] e4eric:
I believe the following flow would be better suited with how we can use this app:

When first swiped: Most frequently used apps (or top apps defined by users) + Recently used apps --- using icon grid arrangement

When letter ribbon is clicked: full app list appears going to the letter clicked ---- using list arrangement

:) Hope this can be implemented!

Hi, CyanSmoker...

i miss some update... (b14 exactly)...

I forget to mention standard feedback :

Device

• HTC One X
• Android maXimus 12.0.1 (discontinued build) Jelly Bean
Stock Rom with enhanced feature
• Tweaks : JB sound enhancer, Power Menu, % battery
Nothing more...

But i have an idea... Did you tried with somebody who installed a custom FONT like me... Do you think this can break some parameters ?

An idea, i think...

I can try to restore Roboto font (original Android since ICS) and try again to report issue with Icon misalignment and oversized text when slide on app...

Within the next few hours, Beta 16 should be available on the Play Store. I imagine the link will look like: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.voilaweb.mobile.wasgyf

So...

* This release is way less likely to make Android want to kill it

* It may be the most broken version ever, for a silly reason: I had to rename the package since the old package name is now blacklisted in Google Play. I may have made a couple mistakes in the process.

* Due to that new package name, you can keep the old version and install the new one side-by-side. Make sure you disable the old one though.

Good Job

Amazing tool, thank you for your application. It is nice to be able to launch apps wherever I am, but I am having an issue with the Galaxy S III (SGH-I747).

It seems that when the GYF service is running, the capacitive buttons on the device become unresponsive in certain apps, such as mail, Gmail, and the TouchWiz Homescreen.

Is anyone else experiencing these issues?
[Android Apps and Games] cyansmoker:
You mean, not just when the drawer is open, right?
[Android Apps and Games] tinchomey:
Search un gplay: re launcher. Its The same. Works better and you can take some ideas because The creator of Re launcher never have update anymore. Its amazing.

Btw, when you write in The left corner you will hace some problem. You can use then that what relaunch use.

Hope this work better!

Nice app, but doesn't seems to work on my Galaxy Note 1 with JB. Either with long press or fling option, sidebar does not appears.

When the service is recreated it will happen if you never ever used the back button after opening that application draw, if the application draw was opened in that session using the back key then the force close will not happen but if you did not do such thing in the first place then it will crash.

So basically...

Back key on application list + Back key in application name and icon tab mode = No force close

No Back key on application list + Back key in application name and icon tab mode = Force close

Is it possible/planned to have your app appear "early on the Swype gesture", like if it were hidden, and you actually started pulling out from "it's hiding place"? (Action launcher "app drawer" comes to mind).

Right now I perform the gesture and have to wait for your launcher to appear. It seems artificial or something :p

[Android Apps and Games] Dovidhalevi:
The Taskarou launcher overlay lets one swipe from the screen-side a figure that will let one open its version of the app drawer or cached and running app icons.

Your service could:

Drag thumbnails or icons of running/cached apps (instead of long press on home button).

Do this from one side, the whole app list from the other side.

I need multitasking more than an alternative app drawer but that is nice as well.
