Fastest Android Desktop (launcher)

Make that Android fly!

Zeam Launcher for Android is by far the fastest Android Desktop that I have ever used. The CDMA Hero that I rock, was not this fast when it was brand new. Now I can flick through home screens, launch apps, call friends, send texts and whatever else I want, without the customary lag that comes with an underpowered smartphone.



Zeam Launcher is about being fast and lean.

When your launcher doesn’t consume resources like it used to, more power can be dedicated to doing what you want on your phone. Apps open faster, allowing you to access those emails without hesitation.

Features:
- elastic scrolling
- scrollable dock bar
- 1 to 7 screens with pinch screen previews
- configurable action bindings (swipe up, swipe down, double tap, home)
- long hold uninstall from trashcan
- hide home screen icon labels
- scrollable widget support
- auto rotate orientation
- widget size spanning
- live wallpaper support
- fullscreen mode

Favorite feature
My favorite feature has to be the ‘configurable action bindings’. This allows me to set a ‘double tap’ to launch the phone dialer. I love this!
Now, I realize that I could simply tap the phone icon or even hit the physical phone button, but I think it is way cool that I can double tap the screen and launch something.

Scared to try
What happens if I try out Zeam and I don’t like it or I want to get back to my default desktop?
Simple, just navigate to menu–>settings–>applications–>manage applications–>downloaded(tab)–>zeam. Scroll down to ‘Launch by default’ and click ‘Clear Defaults’.
The next time that you hit the ‘Home’ button, you will be asked to choose which desktop to use. Good to go!
