 AppCore Performance Testing 

By moving all compute-intensive tasks off the main thread. The latest "installed app" list loads in the background asynchronously, while the "pinned apps" are cached and displayed instantly within milliseconds.

This means virtually no loading time, regardless of how many apps you have installed or pinned.

I also performed a comparison with a app found on the Play Store, which offers some simpler functionalities.

Testing Environment: Medium-spec testing devices with 250+ popular apps installed. Both apps were used and then force closed (cache not cleared).

Results: The difference is striking—approximately 20 seconds vs. less than 1 second.
