I think *all* app drawer apps are available in *all* launchers, so, just
searching in Google Play for "app drawer" should get them all for you (or
most of them, as they are not all called "app drawer").

I'm no expert - but I think the way it may work is that *each launcher* has
a *default* app drawer app; but that every launcher can handle ever app
drawer app.

You can even install a dozen different app-drawer apps if you like, since
they're just apps.

If you want to start with a good App Drawer app, try "App Swap". I have
version 1.0.0.500, App Swap-net.ebt.appswitch-5000002-v1.0.0.500.apk

That App Drawer app organizes apps any way you want.
It can even *hide* apps from the app drawer (although I'm not sure why
you'd want to hide apps in the app drawer).

It searches for apps by name.
It can display either the application name or the package name.
It automatically organizes all apps by however Google organizes them.

And it sorts them alphabetically if you want.
Or it sorts them by category if you want.
Or it sorts by most often launched if you want.
Or it sorts them manually if you want.
It can even sort by *color* for heaven's sake!

Just to prove the sort by color, here's a "red" sort on my phone:

And here is a green sort on my phone:

And here is a blue sort:

You can tag them any way you like, where the point is you can sort by 
almost anything you can think of.

If you find a *better* App Drawer app, let me know because I'm always
looking for better freeware.

PS: App Ops Starter also sorts apps by "type" of app.
PS: App Backup & Restore also sorts apps by size or date installed.
