I didn't know I needed this app until now. This improved the way I navigate my phone in subtle ways that make a huge difference. If you make a long press shortcut to, let's say Wikipedia, it launches new instances that remain as tabs in Chrome. If you make a traditional homescreen shortcut, it always links back to the same instance. With Sesame as an option, I ca now set up different behaviors! Also, once you customize Sesame search, it gets you to exactly what you need quickly! Love this app!

This app is very peculiar. It will absolutely revolutionize the way you CAN your phone, but ONLY if you disclipline yourself to remember it's actually there and use it. Once you get over the initial hurdle of forming the habit of using it, you'll wonder how you ever got along without it. For me, I have nothing but my dock on my main home, I hide my notification bar, use a live galaxy background, set Sesame to open on home tap, and the world is at my fingertips. Minimalist functionality.
