I'd like to get the community's opinion of Apus Launcher. I like it because it is slim and trim, but I think I have noticed some very troubling behavior and as a result, my gut tells me this is something that should be uninstalled. Yet, I see many sites praising Apus and it often if not routinely makes the lists of the best launchers.
Behaviors that trouble me that I think are attributable to Apus are: accessing mobile data when data is turned off, and turning on Wi-Fi and searching for a Wi-Fi connection even when Wi-Fi was turned off. The reason why I think it's Apus is because when I engage No Root Firewall that behavior stops but then again, there is one other app that it could also be. However, I never noticed these problems until I installed Apus.
Behaviors that are troubling to me that I know are attributable to Apus are: sending a notification about updating even though it is not set as my default launcher and I haven't used it in weeks, and listing itself as a device administrator.
I don't know if these behaviors are normal for apps and I'm being irrational and paranoid, or if Apus is indeed troubling. As I said, I'd like to have a slim launcher because my phone doesn't have much memory and Apus seems to be praised a lot on the internet although I have come across several posts of people who have trouble uninstalling it with some people even calling it malware.
