Description

From the listing uploaded by “leighakat”.

Swapper allows you to manage your swap files without the need for a swap partition on an SD card. Swap files contain data taken from system memory or RAM. When you move data from your RAM to a secondary storage device, it happens in the form of a swap file and a lot of memory can be freed up this way on your main device. Swapper is a great tool that makes managing your swap files easy. You don’t need to create a partition on your SD card for this purpose anymore and the app doesn’t allow you to manage a partition that you created beforehand. Be aware that your phone needs to be rooted and have kernel swap support for the app to work to its full capabilities. The default swap size is 60 MBs but you can really easily increase the size all the way up to 100 MBs, as soon as you open the app. Set a different value, depending on what you need. For a cleverer and more practical management of your swap files, use Swapper on your Android device.

Swapper APK: questions and answers

Can I install this APK over the version I already have?

Only if it is signed with the same certificate as the copy on your phone and isn't an older version. If Android says “App not installed”, the certificates differ; uninstalling your copy first works but deletes its data unless it is backed up.

Is the Swapper APK safe?

No one can promise that a file is safe, but some things can be checked. The source store rates this file Trusted. After downloading, check that the file's MD5 is 4d62f398ec4e950deaf61e750e42a408.
