Description
Open your recent and frequently used apps from one easy-to-browse list.
Recent App is an app launcher that helps you spend less time searching for apps and organizing your home screen.
Sort apps by last used or usage frequency. Browse your apps in a list or grid and choose the one you need.
Keep your current home screen setup, or add a widget to launch apps directly from your home screen.
WHAT YOU CAN DO
■ Quickly reopen an app
Want to return to an app you just used? Find it in a list sorted by last used. You don’t need to remember its name or where you placed its icon.
■ Keep frequently used apps near the top
Sort by usage frequency to bring the apps you use most toward the top. Find your everyday apps without constantly rearranging your home screen.
■ Keep your home screen tidy
Pin your favorites and find the rest through usage history or search. Add a widget to reduce the need for pages of individual app icons.
MAIN FEATURES
■ Five sorting options
• Last used • Usage frequency • Total usage time • Install date • Name
Sorting by last used, usage frequency, or total usage time uses Android’s usage data.
■ Home screen widget
Display your app list on your home screen with your selected sort order and pinned apps. Launch apps directly from the widget.
Customize the number of columns, icon size, app name visibility, background transparency, theme, and more. You can also hide buttons and section labels to show only apps.
■ Pin your favorite apps
Keep your favorite apps at the top of the list. Drag pinned apps into your preferred order.
■ Hide unwanted apps
Hide apps you rarely use or don’t want in the list. You can show them again at any time.
■ Search by app name
Type an app name to filter your installed apps. Find what you need without scrolling through a long list.
■ List, grid, and edit views
Choose the view that suits your needs.
• List view: Easily check app names and usage information.
• Grid view: Browse more apps in a compact layout.
• Edit view: Manage pinned and hidden apps in one place.
In grid view, you can adjust the number of columns, icon size, app name visibility, and more.
■ Automatic or manual refresh
Choose whether to refresh the app list automatically or update it manually when needed.
■ Settings backup and restore
Save display settings, pinned apps, hidden apps, and other preferences to a file. Restore your settings from that file when switching devices or reinstalling the app.
■ Themes and display languages
Choose a light theme, a dark theme, or follow your system settings. You can also change the display language within the app.
PRIVACY
App information and usage data are processed on your device to display and sort the app list. The developer does not collect or receive this information.
The app uses no advertising or analytics SDKs and includes no custom tracking.
Usage access is optional. Without granting it, you can still:
• Sort by install date or name • Search by app name • Pin apps • Hide apps
See the privacy policy for more details about how data is handled.
ABOUT USAGE DATA
Android limits the availability and retention of usage history. Usage frequency and total usage time are based on the data available from your device.
Results may vary depending on your device manufacturer and Android version.
Less searching. Start with your recent apps.
Keep everyday app access simple, even as your app collection grows.
Recent changes: Added a “Show only apps in widgets” option. When enabled, the Settings, Search, and Refresh buttons and all section labels are hidden. App groups remain separated, providing a cleaner widget that focuses on your apps.

Does what it says if you have a lot of apps then switching between apps by this recently used list is better than swiping around
★★★★★Mark Brasche· Sep 20, 2022
Works exactly as advertised. SO much more convenient than the card style recent app switcher Gaggle forces on us with no other list options! Used to be there but took it away because they know what's best for us. Right? WRONG!!!
★★★★★Shelby Mattea· Mar 6, 2025
This app works exactly as described. In older versions of Android you could go to the play store and go into app info and sort them by updated, newest, oldest, but most importantly "last used" this was great to quickly find apps that were running themselves in the background generating full screen pop-ups constantly. Basically an app with adware. Well, Google took that "last used" option away a few years ago for some reason. This app does exactly that allowing you to identify the malicious app

I can't customize it like filter apps or custom last used apps 1 day before only.
