An Android digital assistant that can be used as an app launcher! Swyp Launcher is a modern Android assistant application that serves as a launcher to launch apps quickly. The app provides four distinct interaction modes (handwriting, index, keyboard, and voice) optimized for single-handed operation. All UI elements are positioned in the bottom half of the screen for easy thumb access. It's completely free and all four modes run locally without any internet connection.

• Handwriting Mode: Draw letters or gestures to find apps using on-device ML Kit recognition
• Index Mode: Browse apps alphabetically with letter-based grid navigation
• Keyboard Mode: Traditional text search with real-time filtering and calculator support
• Voice Mode: Hands-free app launching with speech recognition

• Usage-Based Ranking: Apps automatically ordered by frequency and recency
• App Shortcuts: Quick access to specific apps by searching pre-defined terms
• Hidden Apps: Hide certain apps from appearing in the main app list
• Customizable UI: Adjust grid size, icon shapes, background blur and sort order
• System Integration: Works as Android's default assistant (swipe from corner or long-press power button)

• 100% Offline: All processing happens on-device
• No Tracking: Zero data collection or analytics
• No Network: No internet permissions required for core functionality
• Open Source: Fully transparent codebase

• Android 14 (API 34) or higher
• Approximately 20MB storage space
• Optional: Microphone permission for voice mode
