I give this app 5 stars because I like how it works in every way, I couldn't be happier with the app and have put my money where my mouth is. Be aware that support, in my case, is non-existent. Been waiting 4 days for a response to my query on Reddit and Discord. Not even recognition that my issue has even been noticed. I feel as if they are more concerned with increasing their base as opposed to servicing their existing supporters. Beware if you have an issues. 2nd rating after a month of use.

Have tried many many launchers, this is exactly what I've been looking for! A perfect mix between minimalism and customisation options. The ability to replace app icons with coloured dots (optional) is a refreshing approach. And the pop ups and their options are designed beautifully. More than happy to support the devs with the paid version.

just installed it, and absolutely loving it! I'm currently using a very low end samsung galaxy device. and for some unknown reason the default launcher on the phone would NOT let me add a clock widget to the home screen. thus began the search and I ended up finding the niagara launcher, while i was looking for another (light weight, open source) launcher. and do i love this app? 😍

This is easily the most innovative and easy-to-use launcher available. One tap to all your apps in an elegant and powerful interface is no small feat! I've used this launcher for a long time and it delights me daily. Set up is quick and painless - there's no picking and arranging apps and widgets on home screen after home screen. The interface interactions are intuitive and smooth. Bravo. I take one star off for not being able to customize the accent color for search and floating button.

Niagara is a brilliantly implemented and carefully crafted launcher that is one of a kind. It has been flawless for me through beta and continues to be rock solid. Access to apps is very fast and you can even access hidden apps with just a few keystrokes. A simple swipe on a favorite and now new pop-out menus provide simple rapid access to all your apps in a variety of ways. It is a joy to use. I grew tired of the clutter of a traditional launcher so I took Niagara for a spin. I'd been using traditional launchers for years so it took me a week or two of daily use to adjust the the change. Take a little time with it before you decide and you will find this remarkable launcher is classy, reliable, and fast. It is unquestionably my favorite launcher of all time. Enjoy!

I downloaded it yesterday. The interface is easy to understand and use. Simple but still customisable. It's very intuitive. I didn't have to learn anything. I downloaded it because i would find myself staring at my phone looking to distract myself. I feel this launcher makes it harder to do that. There is an option to upgrade but the free version really good. I haven't felt the 'need' to upgrade though i might in the future. The price seems reasonable as well.

About this app

The traditional home screen we know was made more than a decade ago when phone screens were smaller than your credit card. Smartphones keep growing, but not your fingers. The minimalist Niagara Launcher makes everything accessible with one hand and lets you focus on what matters.

🏆 "The best Android app I've used in years" · Joe Maring, Screen Rant

🏆 "It changed the way I look at the full device—big time" · Lewis Hilsenteger, Unbox Therapy

🏆 Among the best launchers of 2022, according to Android Police, Tom's Guide, 9to5Google, Android Central, Android Authority, and Lifewire

▌ Top reasons to use Niagara Launcher:

✋ Ergonomic efficiency · Access everything with one hand - no matter how big your phone is.

🌊 Adaptive list · In contrast to a rigid grid layout used by other Android launchers, Niagara Launcher's list can adapt to your needs. The media player, incoming messages, or calendar events: everything pops in when it needs to.

🏄‍♀ Wave alphabet · Efficiently reach every app without even having to open an app drawer. The launcher's wave animation does not only feel satisfying but also helps you navigate your phone with just one hand.

💬 Embedded notifications · Not just notification dots: Read and respond to notifications right from your home screen.

🎯 Stay focused · The streamlined and minimalist design declutters your home screen, reduces distractions, and is super easy to use.

⛔ Ad-free · Having to endure advertisements on a minimalist launcher designed to keep you focused does not make sense. Even the free version is also completely ad-free.

⚡ Lightweight & lightning fast · Being minimalist and fluid are two of the most important aspects of Niagara Launcher. The home screen app runs smoothly on all phones. With just a few megabytes in size, no space is wasted.

✨ Material You Theming · Niagara Launcher adopted Material You, Android's new expressive design system, to make your home screen truly yours. Set an awesome wallpaper, and Niagara Launcher instantly themes around it. We went one step further by bringing Material You to everyone by backporting it to all Android versions.
