[Q] Apex Launcher Question... - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

I had a quick question for you Apex Launcher users...
I recently decided to try hiding some apps in the app drawer... I was wondering, is there any way to access these apps without un-hiding them???

A search should turn them up assuming you include applications in your searches.

This.
Also, if you used the market to install the particular app that is hidden, you should be able to open it from "my apps" as well

[REQ] easy app uninstall

Ok, I have noticed on some alternative launchers (like launcher pro for example) if you drag an icon onto the "desktop" from the app drawer and hold it on top of the trash for a few seconds, it will prompt you to uninstall the app.....
Is there any way of getting this implemented into some of the custom roms around here? or is there something I could install as an "update.zip" to acquire this ability? I like the stock sense launcher so I don't really want to install and alternative launcher for this.....surely there is a way!

does it do what I requested? I've never heard of it....I'll have to look into it, thanks!
It's an app you click into it lists all installed apps so you can uninstall easily its not the same thing but its easier uninstalls

I'll pass then....if I'm gonna do that then I'll just go into the built in manager apps and uninstall it.
Thanks anyway!
Like I said, it is a feature that I like about launcher pro, but I don't want to install a different launcher JUST for that feature. Oh well, I'll just deal with the normal process!

If you download a custom launcher from the market you can change the names to whatever you like. GO Launcher EX will allow you to change the names however due to GO Launcher being a RAM hog your phones performance will slip a little. I'm unsure if other less-RAMhogging launchers will let you do that but you can look on the market.

Yes. It's been a while since I used GO Launcher so I've forgotten how you get the menu up to change it, but it definitely works.

You don't have to capitalize every letter of every word. That seems very illiterate.
Also, thanks for the share.
Holo Launcher can do it easily.

When i hide an app like setCPU with this app will it still work in the background ?
Hi i use 360 launcher it has a hide option as well as many other things also in my opinion its the smoothest launcher for are ace. not had the launcher F/C for along time.
play store link:https://play.google.com/store/apps/...uncher&feature=nav_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDNd
with out a doubt this is in my opinion is the best free launcher

This is a launcher specific feature. Stock launcher doesnt have this option. Nova launcher along with many other custom launchers have the ability to hide apps.

You can launch shelf on any launcher with a shortcut from back or recent keys shortcut. I use nova launcher and i've set double tap recent key for shelf.
