As the title states, I have used Nova launcher for years. As it is the most feature rich, most customizable launcher that supports basically everything I could need from it. However I am looking to switch away from it.
What launchers are you all using?
I have tried a handful of them and none quite fit the bill. And one feature nova has but no other launcher seems to is invaluable to me; that feature being able to swipe up or down on an app on the home screen to launch another app or task. It’s how I keep my main page from being cluttered.
I have tried Neo Launcher which I love, but it doesn’t seem to be updated anymore.
I have also tried:
-
Trebuchet - I am on LineageOS 21
So the only option I am feeling is gonna work is Nova but I am trying to ditch as many closed source, data thieving apps and services as possible.
I could however just use AFWall+ to block internet connection.
Any suggestions?
You could try Niagara Launcher. I’m using it and it’s got that decluttered home screen but it’s fairly minimal. It’s worth mentioning you do get most relevant features in the free version.
Is Nova Launcher stealing data?
Ever since Nova Launcher was acquired by Branch, many users have had privacy concerns.
I just blocked it’s Internet access
Niagara.
Cool disclosure: I haven’t tried any others. I was really impressed by Niagara and just paid the asking price.
