Quick9 Drawer

Experience the ultimate speed in app navigation. Inspired by App Swap, Quick9 Drawer is a lightweight, keyboard-driven Android app drawer designed for users who value efficiency and minimalism. Using a classic 3x4 T9 keypad, you can find and launch any app with just a few taps—or even zero taps.

⚡ Key Features

* T9 Incremental Search: Quickly filter through your apps using a standard 3x4 T9 keypad. Supports English and normalized characters (strips accents like "á" to "a").
* Zero-Tap Auto-Launch: If your search query is at least 2 digits long and results in exactly one match, the app launches automatically.
* Usage-Based Sorting: Your most-used apps stay at the top. The list is sorted by launch frequency, then alphabetically.
* Biometric App Lock: Protect sensitive apps using Android’s native biometric authentication (Fingerprint, Face, or PIN). Pro upgrade required.
* App Hiding: Hide rarely used apps from the list to keep your drawer clean and organized.
* Handedness Mode: Optimized for one-handed use with toggleable left-handed and right-handed layouts.
* Smart Cache Management: Persistent JSON caching for instant startup, with automatic updates when apps are installed or uninstalled.
* Modern Transparent UI: A sleek, dialog-style interface that overlays your wallpaper for a seamless look.

Advanced Filtering
Quick9 doesn't just match the start of the app name. It supports prefix matching for each word within the name (separated by spaces, hyphens, underscores, or dots). Case-insensitive and diacritic-agnostic search ensures you find what you need instantly.

🛡 Privacy & Performance
* Lightweight: No heavy frameworks—built with Jetpack Compose and clean architecture for maximum performance.
* Secure: Biometric data is handled entirely by the Android system; Quick9 never stores your credentials.
* Offline First: No internet permissions required (except for Pro upgrade processing via Google Play). Your app data stays on your device.
