Sidebar Lite 4.4.0
That's why users need sidebar apps, to help them access functions and apps, even when working on their phones. Sidebar Lite is a nice app that can let you do just that, but the free version is a bit limited compared to the features that the premium version offers.
Sleek interface with plenty of features
The app comes with many instructions and tips on how to make it your own and how to access the side bar from the left side of the screen. It comes with some settings but they're not that many compared to other similar apps that we've come across.
It doesn't actually have an interface, just a page with settings that overlays your home screen covering it almost completely. You can enable the app with a single tap of a button on the top corner of the screen.
Tweak settings to meet your preferences
You can make the app start on boot so that you'll have access to the sidebar instantly. You can also adjust the length of the bar and select the area where you'd like to slide and open it. Users also have the option of adjusting the thickness of the interface and the animation speed.
The app comes with some animation, but settings are locked in the free version. Still, you can adjust the edge swipe sensitivity of the app, together with the position of the sidebar.
Choose from the left and right side of the screen. The app lets you create shortcuts for main applications and functions on your phone. You can also access toggles and a whole list of apps in the side bar.
Unlock features by upgrading to the premium version
The free version doesn't come with that many features and some of them are locked in the pro version. An upgrade would get you an unlimited number of items, the option to choose from multiple animations and to adjust the color and opacity.
It also lets you place the sidebar on the right side of the screen and to select from custom colors and icons. It will also show you running apps and give the possibility to kill them by simply swiping the screen. The price of the premium version is 1.71$.

Bottom Line
Design / UI8
The interface is nice, with plenty of animation and customization features, but it could use some more themes. |
Function8
It's a bit non-responsive at times and quite limited compared to other side bar apps that we've tested. |
Security9
It doesn't need many permissions from your phone, which means that it won't pose any privacy issues. |
Battery6
Consumption is quite high, so keep an eye on resources when using this app. |
Price9
It's free of ads but has in-app purchases. The price of the premium version is 1.71$. |
Compatibility9
It should work just fine on devices running Android version 2.1 or later, making it accessible to many users. |
A nice side bar app that could use some more features.
