Very impressive launcher. As good as Nova or any other, have tried them all. The features that would be cool are - folders in drawer and ability to hide multiple apps at once.

So far on Android 11 it is beating the others I'm comparing it to (Hyperion, Nova) and the ones I've ruled out (Lawnchair, CPL, rootless, ruthless, trebuchet) due to bugs or missing features. My requirements were pretty slim - I use a 7x11 layout and *many* of the launchers don't "go to 11" (the Spinal Tap test?). The icon customization will show options across all installed packs, which Lawnchair used to do (but it isn't working at all on Android 11). It also seems fast. The only bugs I've found so far are: 1, when customizing icons, there are "stray pixels like broken text" but only until I do backup/restore at which point it is fixed, so not a problem. 2, the "keep your place in drawer don't go to top" seems to not work or not always work, but, it is only a minor inconvenience and only during certain very uncommon tasks that I care. A winner so far!

May be its a good one. However I ven't been able to locate its settings so I can't talk much, bordering on application customization. I don't know what size are the default icons but they seem to be so big for my eyes. I ve to uninstall at the moment as I might not need it. Thanks.

some gestures like pinch in and out can be added ,iOS style dock ,even small settings like scroll effects and changing theme are deep buried in settings and it can be Placed on bottom part of overview which is empty ,in overview corners of page can be rounded , when long-pressing blank space of home page it should open popup message or overview like that , instead of google now left most page a page with cards like favorite contacts,weather,notes ,storage etc.like that I needed.

I very much like this launcher and I want to be able to rate it higher, but there are issues that take a toll. The launcher frequently just stops responding to certain gestures - specifically the "left" for Google Feed (Google Now) and the "up" for app tray. I have to restart the app (settings, advanced, restart) to get the app try to work again, but I have to restart the PHONE to get the feed gesture to work again. If it weren't for these daily occurrence inconveniences, it would be 5 stars (Samsung Galaxy S10e on Android 11).

Excellent launcher, go for pro version. One of the many features I like the most is to just shake device to lock screen. But facing few problems frequently;taping or sliding up for app drawer wont open. Status bar icon & text turns dark even in day time. In that case I have to restart the launcher all time.
