Are you using a heavy launcher on your android device because it looks great, smooth and have a lot of features? What if you are using an old device with just 512 MB of RAM and not so fast processor? I'm quite sure that it will just further slow down your phone. Today I found a free launcher that could give your old and slow device a new look and a little boost on performance.

Apus launcher is a free android launcher that just works! It is currently the lightest launcher I've ever tested that is free of use. It offers a clean looking flat design that's really good looking and does the job right especially when it comes to the older version of Androids.

- 1 Tap clean - Ala Clean Master
- Very clean UI and smooth overall feel even with older android phones.
