    Kvaesito keeps the idea of easy access to main apps which I used with the bottom favorite drawer + the side scroll ABC drawer, however it can also stack widget in a scrolling screen which is the main use of the app, which is convenient because widget take up a lot of space in a regular launcher. Really cool!
