Top5: Most-used apps widget

You have dozens of apps on your phone, but how many do you actually open every day? Top5 is a home screen widget that keeps just those few within reach. It looks at your recent usage time, picks your 5 most-used apps, and swaps them in the widget automatically whenever the ranking changes. ■ Why I made it I only use the apps I use. Most of the others I hardly ever open. But every time I installed something, my home screen filled up with icons I never tapped, and I had to dig through them to find the apps I open every day. "I wish the apps I actually use would just gather in one place, ready to tap." Top5 was built from that one thought. ■ How it works • Allow "Usage access" once after installing — that's it • Adds up your usage time over the last 1, 3 or 7 days and picks the top 5 • Recalculates every 15 minutes, 1, 3 or 6 hours and swaps the apps in the widget • Tap an icon in the widget to open that app right away • See the current ranking and each app's usage time inside the app • Time spent on the home screen doesn't count — only apps you actually open • Available in 9 languages: English, Korean, Japanese, Chinese, Spanish, German, French, Italian and Portuguese ■ A home screen you never have to tidy Making folders, moving icons, clearing out unused apps — Top5 does it for you. When the apps you use change, the widget changes with them. ■ Privacy • Usage data is only used to calculate the ranking and never leaves your phone • The internet is used only to confirm Google Play purchases • No sign-up, no ads ■ Good to know • "Usage access" is a permission you turn on yourself in Android settings. The app takes you straight to that screen. • On some devices with aggressive battery saving, updates may be delayed. Set Settings > Apps > Top5 > Battery to "Unrestricted" to keep it on time. • The widget is 4×1 and can be stretched horizontally. ■ Price • Try every feature free for 7 days after installing • After the trial you can still tap the apps in the widget — only automatic swapping pauses • Buy the lifetime pass once and it keeps updating on its own. It's not a subscription.
