    I can’t tell, haven’t used either. What I like about ice box is that I can put a link on my home screen that looks just like the real app icon and opens it on click, with auto hibernation right after use. And that it’s completely removing apps from automatic updates, since there are some I absolutely want to preserve in their existing state. But if you’re happy with your existing setup, why change a running system :-)

      That sounds kinda cool, actually I struggle a bit after the freezing action because when I unfreeze them they take forever to re appear in the homescreen/app drawer, or they never do… (maybe a restart or cleaning cache would bring them back, IDK).

        Then give it a shot maybe, they launch pretty much instantaneously.
