Hello,
I am new on this forum and in the Android developper community, and here is my first application:
aLauncher is a launcher widget for applications, contacts, bookmarks and playlists.
I came with the idea of this application when I realized, after using my phone for a while, that I was out of space on my home and that my Application Tab was a real mess. I then decided to create a Widget that would allow to sort conveniently my stuff without losing time to find and launch an application from an overcrowded list.
Also, I wanted to be able to gather in the same place applications, contacts, bookmarks and playlists that belong to the same "realm" (my often used applications and contacts for work in one place, my favorite games and music in another...).
aLauncher is a widget to address this.
It displays 4 icons in a row on the home screen, each one giving access to a fully customizable launcher (default to: Phone & office, Internet & Navigation, Games and Others).
Each Launchers comes as a screen with 3 tabs. Each tab has 16 free spots where you can freely add application shortcuts, contacts, bookmarks or playlists and move them around (so to say, a Launcher has the look'n'feel of the application tab, but behaves like the home screen).
It also supports gestures: you can tilt your phone to navigate through tabs.
Here are a few screenshots: widget on home, opened launcher and dialog for adding an application (as you can see, it supports English and French locales):
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
2 versions are available on the Market:
aLauncher Free is free but the number of shortcuts is limited
aLauncher is full and comes for 1,39€ (currently $1.99)
I'm waiting for your comments and suggestions!
ps: a few early users from a previously released beta experienced crashes, this is now solved!
Hi puppetdroid
just a suggestion , on your first picture {left} it shows the music symbol listed for games. I suggest you change the Icon to a more game type icon.
Also , Have you got them Pictures but all of the text is in English??
Thanks!

Yes, I agree for embedded icons: I wanted to use only built-in icons from Android but none is good for games. Anyway, it is customizable: you can change name and icon at will
About text, default text is in English or French depending on your locale, and labels can be edited freely!

i need to try immediately
Tryed ones
Not impresiv to many things. i like the sony xperia s launcher
Also there is also another thread about it. no need for another one. use search before posting...
I have been working on a icon pack that i will release on the play store. I am in need of people to test and give me feedback and activity names for their phone. I will try and create icons for most phones depending on the users willing to help me out, hence i will need a one phone make per member, I own an HTC One M8 and a Nexus 5, so those are taken care of but i am in need of others i.e. a Samsung s5, Sony Xperia etc.
Those willing to help out will get the icon pack for free, and a thank you shout out as well. So one member per device, and please be available, if you don't have much free time, it probably won't help me much, but the thought is appreciated. If not already, join our apps page in Google+ if you are wanting to get involved.

Ok, it's a little crude and you loose the labels, but it is simple and no need for any programming or special skills.
So, my Tab 2 P3100 is now running CyanogenMod 12.1 with Nova Launcher and Theme is Black Accent.
In Nova you can't rearrange the icons in the App Drawer in so many ways.
This is a way to be a liitle more creative.
You need an Icon pack that gives you the option to not have an icon at all.
In my case it's Lines.
However, I want other icons, so I also have Monoic.
You also need a number of apps that you never will use.
How it looks in my Tab:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Ordinary Lock Screen
..................................................
Left Home Screen.......Middle(default).......Right Home Screen
As you can see my Home Screens are off center to the right, but that is easy since Nova let's you place the icons how ever you want.
So I chose an app grid with 1 extra unused column. I can have labels here, but I don't want to.
....................
Drawer coming up...........Up
To get the same look and keep the icons from the red lines I need an extra column here too.
But Nova will put icons there. And in alphabetical order...
I have renamed apps that I don't use or need and with Lines Icon Pack they got an empty space instead of an image.
In the last row I made one more app "invisible" to center the icons under the others.
Later I may add 2 usable apps to get a full bottom row.
Depending on widgets and number of apps and also the background image, it takes some trial'n'error to find
what app grid you need.
You might even need to install some small garbage app just to make it invisible :laugh:
Edit:
Another way to use the drawer with hidden icons is probably covered somewhere, but if you have your ordinary drawer, apps'n'all...
You can take a screenshot and use that as background (but now your home screen is affected).
Make all icons hidden and you get a transparent "activation sheet" that needs to be pulled upp to use the apps you see in the background.
Anybody knows how to turn on Auto Arrange app icons on the Asus Zenfone 8? ... it's so basic already years and i was looking anywhere and couldn't find how to make it auto arrange the apps icons / shortcuts on home screen and other "pages"... i mean that e.g. if i delete some app or it's shortcut, it's automaticall move all the other apps to take it's place... just keeping it in order... very basic and therefore odd it's no where 2B found easily...
Also for moving the app pages from one place to another, like if you want the apps to be right before or after some widget... it's very frustrating.. in Android 10 i think it was by marking some app (With V) on the edit page mode, so the bottom horizontal ribon of pages shown, then simply long tap and drag and drop the entire page to where you want.. but non of this here... it's very frustrating so any help would be very much appreciated here...
Thatks all ahead and have a nice day..
Unfortunately I don't have an answer for your question. Personally I don't have this problem, since I use just 5 folders to store my most used apps by category.
May it give you some insight in how to rearrange your phone in to a tighty experience.

An folder is created by dropping two apps on-top of each other.
Cheers.
Edit: I should probably rename this folder to something like Daily
