Core Features

T9 Incremental Search

Quickly narrow down apps using a 3x4 T9 keypad. Supports English and normalized characters.

Auto-Launch (Zero-Tap)

Automatically launches the app if the search query is 2+ characters long and there is exactly one candidate.

Frequency-Based Sorting

Prioritizes apps with higher launch counts. Ties are broken by ascending name order.

Biometric App Lock

Protect specific apps using Android's biometric authentication (Fingerprint, Face, PIN). (Pro upgrade).

💡 Other Highlights

  • • Transparent UI: A modern dialog-style interface with a transparent background.
  • • Guide Display: Long-press any button on the T9 keypad to see a hover description of its function.
  • • Persistent Cache & Auto-Update: Achieves fast startup by caching app metadata in JSON format.
  • • Manual Cache Refresh: Rebuild the cache manually from the settings screen if the app list is not up-to-date.
  • • Debug Error Display: In debug builds, displays a detailed stack trace if data export/import fails.
