This is an app recommendation made by an Android guy with 10 years of experience in computer industry.
Trying out efficient software is very cost-effective. A good app can not only improve efficiency and save a lot of time and energy, but also most Android apps can serve for many years. I have used the oldest app for nearly 10 years.
Too long to see version: The recommended app is Microsoft Desktop C Notice、MiXplorer、App usage、 Edge task Speed.
In addition to App usage, you can find it in the "Little Red Book for Men" of Ku'an, or in the Love to play computer games The public account replies "apk" and also has their 5-in-1 dial link.
This article is about the system optimization app, and sharing the idea of using the machine. I will do it next time with my commonly used efficiency tool app.
Cold Desktop and Microsoft Desktop
When the mobile phone is available, the first thing to solve is the desktop/application launcher/launcher. Due to frequent machine changes, and the desktop data of various manufacturers can not be migrated with each other, the third-party desktop is selected.
Before 2019, the local people used cold desktops, and the core feature was the application of the "freezing" function, which could easily make applications sleep (requiring root), long press the frozen app (the icon turned gray/multiple snowflake marks in the lower right corner), click the automatic unfreezing, and automatically resume freezing after locking the screen. Because it is a desktop, freezing/thawing is more convenient than refrigerators and black holes. It was very suitable for the domestic application environment at that time.
In addition, it does not use a drawer, and the installation package is about 2MB (only 864KB in version 4.5). It is a smooth, fast, and power-saving ultra lightweight desktop.
The disadvantage is that it has been stopped for a long time. There are compatibility problems with new systems after Android 10. It can't generate small bugs such as desktop shortcuts, so it has to give up.
Now we use Microsoft Launcher on the Microsoft desktop, whose score on the "Little Red Book for Men" Ku'an is as high as 9.4 points. If you are a Microsoft family bucket user, you will be very comfortable to use the notes and other functions of Win10.
But one thing to say is that the old Microsoft desktop is a cancer app, an endless broadcast receiver, service, activity list (generally only Taobao, WeChat and other apps will have the same scene). The background of the new version of Microsoft's desktop is cleaner and more beautiful, but it is more castrated. The app's long press menu function is incomplete, and the shortcut bar can no longer put desktop plug-ins. So I still stay in the old version, version 5.8.54040.
The reason for choosing Microsoft Desktop is that it can automatically generate desktop icons for newly installed apps, customize icon layout (up to 12 columns and 12 lines), adjust the size of desktop plug-ins in half grid, and quickly jump to application details and desktop plug-in list by long pressing the app.
The personal computer use policy is "efficiency first, aesthetic requirements are zero", and desktop modeling is a trigger for intense phobia. The goal is to put all the apps and plug-ins on one page, and the application drawer is also a page to read (it is a bit eye-catching). In the current large screen mobile phones, the mainstream 4 * 6 and 5 * 6 apps are arranged too conservatively, too old, and the efficiency is too low.
C Notice
C Notice is a simple function that replaces the notice bar. All notifications are synchronously generated into semi transparent floating icons, which can be moved and folded. The upward stroke clears a single notification, the downward stroke clears all notifications, and the inward stroke opens the corresponding app. Click the hover icon to view the detailed notification pop-up window, and even the buttons of the music controller can be mapped.
Today's mobile phones are too big to reach the notice bar with one hand. C Notice can reduce the strain of the thumb tendon, and you don't need to worry about missing the notice (occasionally, you will scratch the notice with your hands cheap).
Because Google ads are used, if there is no ladder or if you manually cut off its network access, the free version is also advertising free
MiXplorer
The best file manager to use, no one. Migrated a lot of desktop operation habits:
Direct display of folder size and number of files
Click the icon to trigger multiple selection. At this time, long press other icons or double finger operation is the shift+left button batch box selection function on the computer.
With its own "pasteboard", it can copy/paste/cut multiple times
The renaming tool supports regular expressions and can automatically rename apps
Folder multi label management (labels can be saved), multi view optional, and double finger zoom
It comes with a variety of network disks and webdav support, and can self install decompression, decoding, PDF, SMB and other plug-ins
MiXplorer's degree of freedom of interaction and customization is too strong to add. There are a lot of user-defined items, such as toolbar position, buttons of each menu, sorting, and even automatic tasks (set repeated file copying/moving operations).
If there is any shortcoming, its Chinese language pack can only be downloaded by ladder, but you can find various resources in the comments area of Jilao'an.
App usage
Although Android and iOS have native usage records, they are both brothers in front of App usage. App usage is the ultimate mobile phone/user life recorder, which can never be found by "post checking enthusiasts".
App usage includes time chart, bar chart, hotspot chart, detail chart, timeline (app opening record accurate to the second level), battery usage record linked with app opening time, separate phone opening record (screen opening, screen closing, unlocking), notification history (what app, when the notification was pushed), and naturally, "over use reminder" function.
The most frightening thing is that it even links location recording information (using Google Maps, the positioning logic is a bit supernatural, and is accompanied by well-known drift). When, where, and how long to open any app are all recorded, which is simply terrible.
All usage records can be exported and imported, and can be exported as csv files for direct viewing in excel. The free version can record the information of the last three months. The paid version mainly lengthens the record duration (three years) and provides regular backup function.
Edge Task Speed
The edge task Speed is not as strong as those apps above, but when many new machines cannot root, there are few options for free gesture apps.
"Left and right sliding" and "three-stage" are optional. The former has the trigger operation of sliding up and down, while the latter divides the side into three sections to trigger different functions. Click, double click, long press and four corner click gestures are not practical.
Although it is a free version, it provides a full range of trigger function items: shortcut app、 You can choose from various physical and virtual buttons, even the negative screen and the expansion panel of similar control center (volume and brightness adjustment).
You can control tactile feedback, visual animation (choose MIUI or Sony style), and developers also integrate "fancy" functions such as advertisement skipping, water drinking tips, eye protection mode, etc.
