APUS Launcher holds the top position among Android third party launchers. Along with the Icon pack support it has built with some handy and useful features including APUS Mobile Search, APUS Radar, Smart Folder, Priority Apps, APUS Boost, etc.

Recently I tried APUS Launcher in my GS3 but, it wouldnt help me to keep using it even the mentioned features are available. When I try to uninstall the APUS Launcher It couldnt. In app manager Uninstall button was disabled. Then I noticed that I was activated the APUS in device administrators list to enable double tap screen lock. So deactivating the same will do the trick.

Follow the complete steps below.

Deactivate Apus Launcher in Device administrators

1. Go to Setting -> Security -> Device administrators
2. Tap on APUS and click Deactivate.
Or
1. Go to Setting -> Privacy -> Device administration -> Device administrators
2. Tap on APUS and click Deactivate.

Uninstall Apus Launcher

1. Go to Application Manager
2. Click on Apus Icon
3. In Apus App info page tap Clear defaults.
4. Finally, Tap on Uninstall

Thats it.

TouchWiz is the default launcher in every Samsung mobile which is developed by Samsung. When I was using Galaxy S2 the only thing i hate in the phone was the TouchWiz user interface. When i use stock ROM by samsung i always used to change the default launcher to Apex , Nova like launchers as like many Android users i too like the Holo UI.

Even i am lover of Holo UI, i am started loving TouchWiz Nature UX from the day i got my Galaxy S3 with Android 4.1.2. The UI improved a lot from the old TouchWiz versions. The only option i miss from the Android stock launcher is the drag and drop uninstall.

Yesterday, when i was surfing through the XDA forum i noticed a thread which asks how to Sort Apps on Touchwiz App Drawer alphabetically. I dont know whether if its possible in the older TouchWiz versions, but it is possible in the current version which i have in my phone. So i just want to share the simple method to sort apps grid in TouchWiz alphabetically without any third party app.
