AppDrawer is a highly customizable app drawer replacement. You can use it as an alternative to your launcher’s default app drawer, or to add functionality to launchers that don’t currently support the app drawer (like MIUI for example).
You can use with pretty much any launcher, including: your phone’s default launcher, Go Launcher, ADW Launcher, LauncherPro, Apex Launcher, Nova Launcher, Launcher 7, MIUI Launcher, and more!
There are similar offerings out there, such as Faster Drawer — or Organized Drawer — or even Folder Organizer, but nothing comes close to offering the level of personalization that AppDrawer provides. With AppDrawer, you can literally flesh out hundreds of unique designs and layouts using all the different options to your disposal. Some of those options include…

NOTED ISSUES:
. AppDrawer may be slow to open on certain phone/ROM/launcher combinations. We are working on incorporating a permanent fix, but until then, those who have ROOT ACCESS can manually resolve this issue by moving the AppDrawer APK to /system/apps/ and reboot — You can do this manually with file explorer apps like Root Explorer or automatically with Titanium Backup’s “Convert To System App” function. Contact us at [email protected] if you are unsure.
. The “Multi-Select” –> “Select All” option in List or Paged view modes will force close. We are also working on a fix. Until then, manually check the apps that you want to edit.

We have more features planned for the future, such as bug fixing, optimized performance, app folders, icon packs ‘n themes, transition effects, ICS pagination, and more. Have a suggestion?
