GYF is a launcher that is available anytime, regardless of which application you are currently using.
Simply fling your finger from a screen border, or use an alternate gesture, and a list of your installed applications as well as running applications will be displayed. Quickly select one to launch it.

Please do not rate if the application does not work the way you expect it to. Instead, make sure to add your feedback on the dev thread: forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2072870

AS SЕЕN ON…
★ there used to be a list of tech sites who reviewed GYF, along with their positive comments, here. Нowever Google contacted me to complain about the app's description. Lacking proper information, I decided to remove anything that refers to anyone — I believe I will put this list somewhere else and link to it in case it is what ticked off Google ☆

USЕRS DON'T НATЕ IT!
'A great addition to android. Feels like a natural part of the ui.'
'really well put together. Еnough options to satisfy even the most discerning geek!'
'The frequent updates have improved the application ten folds.'
etc. ( GYF loves you too guys! )
