Neatly Organize and Access Your Favorite Apps with Drawers App for Android

Dec 24, 2017

If there’s one word I would use to describe Android OS, that is ‘versatile’. Now, I’m using that word due to the fact that the OS, from the get-go, has been super flexible, open and highly customisable. However, due to this nature, the security of the OS has a greater chance to be at risk. This is one caveat of an open source OS. Ok, now let’s keep the security issue aside and let’s focus on the customisation capability. This capability outweighs the security issues present in the OS. Don’t take this from me, it is pretty much evident from the Android user base around the globe. Fine, let’s get to the point here. Today, I would like to take an in-depth look at an app called Drawers. Drawers App for Android let you organize and access your favorite apps lightning fast.

Drawers app as the name suggests allows to you to tidily arrange and organize your favorite apps in drawers. The drawers reside at the edge of your phone’s screen. Just, tap the highlighted tab of a drawer at the edge of the screen.

My thoughts and conclusion

This is one very useful and logical app in the sense that it provides you with an alternative to the traditional app drawer on Android. Moreover, it also negates the need to go back to the home screen or app drawer each and every time. Say for example you are reading a great article on our very own DroidViews website but also the same time wants to go to Straight into one of your frequently used apps instead of jumping back and forth the home screen and app drawer on your device. This app saves time and effort.
