I love this launcher! although it would be dope if u brought back the custom notification bar toasts [they dont work on samsung galaxy on5]. and if you brought back the lockscreen . i am a long time fan of this app and ive seen it through almost day 1 around 2014 amd it is very reliable and highly customizeable. after that long android just doesnt feel right without this app . great work on the translations guys. just dont remove any features! i love it!!!

I've owned a Windows phone and enjoyed the tile effects. Of course you can't beat android so Launcher 8 is by far the best I've found. I use the Pro version with v.i.p and it's worth every penny I paid. I like the fact you can backup your home screen so if for some reason you change device you can restore to that. Each tile is customizable with colour, title and what you want to link to it. To really set off the Launcher I use drupe dialer Pro version and really do have a brilliant setup. I highly recommend this Launcher and would say once you've tried it then it's hard to try anything else. Top developer.

I was a Windows Phone holdout, liked the interface, the tight integration with office, and a different look from the crowd. A review of this app nudged me to make the plunge to android. The interface is impressive, actually more flexible than Windows. The outlook app is better than the Windows built in mail app. And I have access to cutting edge hardware and all the apps. The best of both worlds!

This app now officially sucks. After running it for 2 years on my tablet i needed to format/reset my tablet. After doing so the first thing I was going to do was reinstall launcher 8 pro (yup, I bought this) only to find out that it now longer can run on my tablet, and there is no replacement option. Nice job. Please fix this. And stop asking me to set up a password. I don't need a reminder every time I unlock the phone. Each update makes this app worse. Really sorry I paid for it.

I bought Launcher Pro a few years ago.. Now you want me to pay for VIP services. To things that I had access to before! Ok! I don't totally agree with!! So I purchased one month of VIP and it's still not giving me access to the fonts, themes etc. And it's showing that I have a subscription under your Launcher WP app! Can you fix this!!???
