Love the app, it would be ideal if not freezes time to time. Sometimes it just stuck on refreshing apps list and only Restarting KISS help. Maybe this problem exist only on Pixel 3, but it's worth investigating and fixing. Still good job making this app 👌 Upd: 2021/05 still same issue on Pixel 3, occurs around couple times a month. I can help with debug if you provide steps to collect data(I'm not android dev) Btw I'd donate for awesome development job but can't find any ways to do so.

best launcher ever, seriously, its quite limited in customisation, but it works surprisingly well with live wallpapers, specifically klwp, so if you know how to use klwp, its easy to create home screens to the level of customisation offered on launchers like nova or lawnchair. And with the main search bar feature it really puts it in another league it terms of usability. easy 5 stars no questions asked.

I would like an option for the app list to appear as an icon grid vs a giant list. In my first 3 minutes of using the launcher, that was my initial "ugh moment". Yes the search is fast, but if i could customize the list into a grid of apps 2, 3, 4, 5 wide and alphabetical through the rows i think id be more happy. It is blazing fast so far at least. Ill give it an honest try.

I have been using this launcher for the past one year. Absolutely stable and user friendly. I love the feature to freeze the history, so the list appearing on homepage is stable and i can always reach the required app instantly. Adding/removing to the lists, tags etc are extremely user friendly. Launcher works at lightning speed and without any issues whatsoever. I'm using KISS launcher on almost 4+ years old lenova vibe and it still feels like a new phone. Thank you Neamar for the wonderful piece of software.

basicly kiss is a start menu, which is what makes it great, i don't have ti remeber the page or app name, i can search streaming to bring up youtube, netflix, viaplay two things needed is fixing the offset of separators and more color choice, both of these are nice to haves, so it is a five star

If you have a low end phone this launcher is simply the best choice. There is a bug where icons in the favourites bar disappear randomly would be appreciated if the dev fixes it asap.
