Love this app, just two things.
1. Calendar is blank.
2. Can you add the choice of Celsius to weather.
Thanks

[APP][2.1+] Appsi sidebar, a plugin supported sidebar application
- Thread starter nickmartens1980
- Start date
1. go to calender plugin settings and make sure you have correctly selected the right amount of days to display and select all calenders
2. its already there.. just long click on the weather and a settings icon (wrench) icon will appear on the top of sidebar. click on it and select Celsius from the pop-up window...
I hope it solves both of your problems... :good:

Hi there!
Where to find other dashclock extensions for home sidebar? I can't find any on play store, probably because my device is 4.1.2 and dashclock is only 4.2+
Note 2 N7100 - Alliance ROM - SpeedWizz kernel

still no reply from the dev about "license check failed" failed problem..
This would be a Google playstore purchase problem... They can easily sort it for you... Get them to check your purchases... Unfortunately I don't think the dev has any options..

dev asked me to email them to sort out this problem. i mailed them but still got no response from them..
OMG OMG this app is great - I had been using some other sidebar before, but this one beats them all imo!
(I tried out many: Sidebar, Sidebar+, Sidebar Plus, Swapps, Bubble Launcher, etc.)
I got some suggestions / feature requests though which I think could improve it even more:
- Ability to launch apps into a multiwindow for samsung devices that support it AND for halo enabled roms: Ability to launch apps into a floating window. (take a look at bubble launcher - there you can decide whether you want normal or floating window app start by long/short-pressing the app).
- Ability to configure the apps list and add self defined shortcuts (like chosing which activity to launch), or to run scripts etc through shortcuts.
- Ability to "split" recent apps and the normal apps plugin page into two sidebars / plugins so that you can open recent apps and the "app drawer" seperately if wanted. (just as an option off course). The easiest way would be to allow multiple instances of the plugin pages with different settings each. (on one you would just hide all apps and favorites, and on the other you would hide the recent apps - then you have two sidebars for recents and normal apps.) This would also allow to set up multiple favorite lists which leads to my last suggestion:
- Ability to set up more than one "favorite list", to have seperate sidebars/gestures to open different app categories (like: "games", "system tools", "email and browsing" etc etc. - you get the point im sure)

This is all not really necessary to be honest but it would improve appsi even more.
These sidebar launchers (especially this one here!) need way more attention! They reallly give a whole new multitasking experience.

thats right. i posted the problem and emailed the devs on 2nd oct, and its 17th oct today. also as the dev replied here, it is a common problem reported by many users. so, are they trying to solve that problem once again ? cant they respond to me and tell the generic solution that they give to every one who face this problem ??
I'm going to contact developer, but in case I'm missing something maybe someone here can help.
My phone case is made it such that I need a wider swipe margin on my phone. Also based on the way I handle it, I'm not a big fan of swiping at other locations. Therefore...since I use Nova Launcher Prime, I have created two Nova shortcuts to Appsi panels. One is a shortcut to SMS, edited to allow access to the Call panel on swipe of same shortcut. The second is to the Apps panel, edited to allow access to the Settings panel on swipe of same shortcut. This works great for me, however once I reboot all shortcut settings default to the Home panel and do not stick. Appsi issue or Nova issue? Ideas?

Do I need to enable it from somewhere? I'm on the latest beta and for some reason I only get this by long pressing:

Hi hemroyd, to get bigger hotspots go to hotspots in the main menu then select hotspot width. Now you can set the width.
The second thing with the shortcuts appears to be a bug, I'll look into this

September 4th (beta 1.4.21):
It's been a while and I think it is time to give you all a little update on what's going on behind the scenes in beta. I am working on fixing the issues that are left and hope to release the upcoming version as Appsi 1.5 soon.
I have got tons of new cool features coming up. To name a few:
1. A new (100% free and a part of Appsi itself) page in the sidebar with support for
- App widgets in the sidebar
- Home plugins (Appsi specific plugins, more below)

.. And a lot more.
The Home Plugins are small extensions to the home tab/plugin. The are small plugins you can add to the home tab in Appsi. They can be used to show things like, missed calls count, launching certain intents and a lot more. There is an open source sample project with docs on Github. And there's some instructions right here.
If you are looking for screenshots, take a look in the G+ beta community.
July 30th: Version 1.4 released
Last weekend I updated Appsi to version 1.4
New features:
1. Customize the size of the text and icons
2. Change the spacing between the items
3. Global search
4. New icon
July 15th: Version 1.3.3 in beta.
Very small amount of changes for this beta. Moving to production on 18th if no issues arise.
1. Option to minimize the notification. (no icon and smallest possible notification, no extra actions etc)
2. Bug fix for android 4.0.3 and 4.0.4 devices, causing crashed with hardware acceleration enabled.
3. Fix issue with long texts on items in the sidebar when there is a title and a description. The title will now also have ellipsis.
July 13th: Version 1.3 released.
Today I moved version 1.3 from beta to production. The following changes are probably going to make 1.4:
Improved search: Search through all apps, even if the section is disabled. If you have plugins, search will include all results from all plugins.
Live folder support in Appsi (add a live folder as if it is a plugin)
If you have a suggestion, just let me know.
Also I will add new translations once they have been completed. This is just a matter of time. If you would like to help out, pm me.
July 6th: Version 1.3 beta released.
I just finished uploading the new beta version of Appsi to Google play. This new version contains the following new features:
Proper favorites manager
Contextual action bar to perform actions on long press.
Switch plugins by swiping left or right on the sidebar
Updates to all plugins for the contextual actions
Fixes:
Fixed a bug in the icon caching mechanism
This is a beta release, so for now only accessible for beta testers (wanna be a beta tester? let me know). This version will most likely move to production within one week.
July 1st: version 1.2.4 was released
Although it may not sound like a big update, This version adds support for the following new features:
* transparency in the sidebar
* the ability to choose a background image for the sidebar
* Choice between light and dark theme
* Improved the way to get the data from the plugins.
* Improved user experience, especially for new users.
Special thanks go out to all the people helping with translations and beta testing. Thank you very much!
See https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.appsimobile.appsi for the Google play listing.
Appsi sidebar is a sidebar application for android. It comes with an embedded App plugin (more about that later) that allows you to see all your apps and add your favorite 5 apps as favorites.
It supports 3 distinct gestures when opening the sidebar, by default they will all open the sidebar normally. The gestures are moving horizontally after touching the hotspot, moving up or moving down. For each of these you can set the action to perform, these actions are:
- open the sidebar (default)
- open favorites swiper
- open recents swiper (needs plugins with recents)
- open plugin swiper (swipe to the plugin you'd like to open and then open the sidebar)
The swiper is the same as what you might know from other apps (like swipepad), it allows you to open something with one single touch, by moving your finger from the sidebar to the item.
The hotpot is either on the left or right side of the screen, it can be positioned manually and can be as big as you want.
Thanks to the wonderful people on this forum Russian translations have been added in the latest version. Also simplified Chinese has been added. I'd like to know what you all think about this app
Appsi is plugin based (and supported). This means it allows you to buy plugins to extend the functionality. This is not needed for normal operation, but it will add more types of things you can add as a sidebar.
You can either add a hotspot for each plugin, or use one hotspot for all plugins. The opened plugin can be changed by tapping the title of the sidebar.
If anyone has suggestions or improvement, either for plugins or Appsi itself, please let me know.

Appsi 1.5 release6
Hi all, yes, Appsi is still alive. I just had to take a little break for a while. A few days ago I have started working on a completely renewed version of Appsi. I will not say too much yet, but the most important changes will be:
- Material design
- In app purchases instead of separate plugins. This allows much more freedom for each of the pages and better integration between the plugins.
- Performance improvements
- Folder support
- Proper theming engine
- Grid display
- Weather integration
It will be using the same Appsi engine, with a few upgrades of course.
And most importantly, if you purchased a plugin before, it will unlock the matching feature in the new version.
When it is ready for early access testing I will update this thread again. I expect it to be ready for early testing early october.4Appsi is in the top five apps from August 2013. see http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/09/12/roundup-our-top-five-favorite-new-apps-from-august-2013/ for the full story.3If I'm right, this sidebar uses a service as "sidebar", doesn't it?
All other apps I've seen start up an activity if you touch the gesture area. If you press the home button and try to launch an activity from the gesture area, it has a 5 second delay.
So that's a really good thing.
Overall UI looks pretty good, which makes the users first thoughts about the app very positive.
ActionBar in the sidebar is awesome and usefull.
Logo isn't the best I've seen, you could improve that.
This is my opinion 4 seconds after installation.
Edit: search bar is very usefull
