Easy Swipe 1.3
One of such apps is Easy Swipe. It sports a simple concept but it could use some more features, including customization options and ways in which you can change the content displayed on the drawer.
Sleek UI with some settings
The app launches directly with some instructions, but it doesn't come with a tutorial containing slides. However, it would have been useful if it did display a tutorial so that new users could have mastered the app. Still, it has a settings menu although it lacks material design or any kind of customization features.
In fact, the only changes to the app that you can do is to enable it or enable notification. You can also choose between making the app available only in the launcher or also in other applications. Other than that, you can't make any changes to the UI.
Some features
You can open the slider from the right or left corner of the screen and you can't change the launch point. It also doesn't come with a widget or any kind of customization feature.
Still, the drawer displays your recent apps, favorites and a toolbox with all sort of system toggles. You can enable brightness, sound, the flashlight, access the camera or turn on bluetooth, mobile data or WiFi connection.
It also comes with a booster feature that supposedly kills apps running in the background but it doesn't do such a good job with it, since you might notice that some apps are still running. However, it's quite difficult to find a booster that actually closes are apps running in the background and prevent certain ones from restarting and draining your resources.
Some flaws
The app also has some controls in the notification bar, like the option to enable flashlight, the camera, access photos or boost your phone. However, you can't change the toggles or add others of your own.
In fact, there are no customization features for the drawer neither. It would have been nice if users could add shortcuts to their favorite apps and not let the app decide which would be posted there. All in all, it's a nice app but quite simplistic and rudimentary.

Bottom Line
Design / UI8
The interface is nice with the option to choose the position for the launcher, but not the shortcuts posted on it. |
Function7
It works just fine, but the booster needs some improvement and the app could use some more features. |
Security8
It needs many permissions from your phone, but the app shouldn't really pose any privacy issues. |
Battery9
Consumption is quite low, you don't need to worry about the app draining your resources. |
Price10
It doesn't have any ads or in-app purchases, the app is completely free of charge. |
Compatibility7
It should work on devices running Android version 4.1 or later, making the app inaccessible to some users. |
It definitely needs more features and improvements.
