One of the most beautiful feature is to provide a secure wall between "OWNER" and "GUEST " users.
In "OWNER" mode, AUG L App locker will not lock apps and "HIDDEN APPS" that are visible in your "APP DRAWER" .

You don't need another app locker. Have a powerful app locker combined with aug launcher's "User Modes".

Access your favourite apps by just a TAP. "DOCK" is here... :)

Make folders based on your interests or the behaviour of the apps and thus make a clean & smart UI.

All of your apps(except "HIDDEN" apps when in “GUEST” mode) and folders are listed in Alphabetic order either in "HORIZONTAL" or "VERTICAL" mode.

> Icon pack :
Customize your apps icon, choose an Icon pack (Go to AUG L settings --> Icon pack).

> No Ads :
Ads in launcher, it’s annoying :(.
That's why I have no ads :).

For the first 48 hours after installation, you can perform all gesture operations as a free trial.

If you are new to AUG L please follow the tutorial (on the first launch after installation)/Help (AUG L Settings -> Help) for understand how AUG L works.

If you found any bug, please inform me (AUG L Settings -> Contact & support).

To make gesture recognition better,
- It is recommend to edit the gestures based on your priority.
- Select a feasible sensitivity of gesture on home(Go to AUG L Settings -> Home).


This app uses the Device Administrator permission - ONLY FOR LOCK SCREEN BY USING SWIPE/GESTURE ACTION.

This app uses the AccessibilityService API for
1) LOCK SCREEN BY USING SWIPE/GESTURE ACTION.
2) SHOW NOTIFICATION BAR/QUICK SETTINGS BAR/RECENT APPS(in some devices only) by using SWIPE/GESTURE ACTION.

Because of some Android policy update, it is not possible to retrieve the unread count of SMS and MISSED CALLS

I am happy that this launcher exists. Since I have used Z launcher in the past. Scribble gestures can be improved alot. For now, I have found an alternative, rex launcher which has a similar and more polished scribble. I would like to see similar improvements to scribble here too. Current gestures force me to scribble in a single go which is not at all intuitive.

Still testing. I have a featute request though. App drawer should at one time allow only one app also based on user optional password. It will be a magical and miracle option to make app a crowd gatherer. Please think.

I've used a lot of launchers over the years (the most recent being Smart), but I'm thoroughly impressed with how fast and intuitive this launcher is. While it takes a bit more tweaking than Smart to get it set up just the way you want it, once it's there, it's so much faster to navigate through your apps. The Guest mode is a stroke of genius - it's so much easier to keep your more private apps hidden. Definitely worth the pro upgrade just to support an active dev who refuses to use adverts as well :)
