I was using the Nova launcher forever, but it's been getting buggier and buggier and support just blames android. plus I understand there are privacy concerns about them these days
I switched to hyperion, and it works just fine except for one feature, and I can't get support to respond anywhere for any reason.
which launcher do you use, and why do you like it?
Lawn chair, because it's unopinionated and stays out of the way, mostly
well I just spent 8 minutes trying to figure out how to get in contact with their customer service and it's already a pain in the ass.
Niagara. i pay the yearly subscription for it. but it's not for everyone
What is the amount of the yearly subscription and what don't you get with the free version that promoted you to get something you had to pay for?
I am not trolling, just can't find info on it and don't want to check it out if some reliant features are behind a paywall.
it's 3.99 a year. the description of the Pro version benefits are listed:
Niagara Pro is the premium in-app upgrade to unlock all of the app's features.Benefits of upgrading to the paid version:
- Pop-up widgets: Get timely information at a glance
- App list pop-ups: Add folder pop-ups to organize all your apps
- App pop-ups: Swiftly access related apps, shortcuts, or widgets
- Ad-free experience
I'd say i use all the paid features all the time. i also prefer this launcher because I'm ADHD af and it helps keep things looking clean and there's less distraction. my favorite things about this launcher are the weather widget and calendar agenda built into the home screen
it's really just the best minimalist launcher i could find that still looked good, could be personalized, and didn't limit me too much . i use the Panels app with it for more quick shortcuts that don't fit on the home page, since there's a limit. but the paid version lets you make pop-up folders for apps too.
Smart launcher. Because it has automatic app categories and supports smart gestures and is a nice replacement for Nova launcher.
I also like Niagara launcher for its smoothness and fast search based app launch
I used Nova for a while and even paid for the upgraded version, but it's kind of specific in what everything looks like. Like you can use a phone and know immediately that it's running Nova. I switched for that reason.
Categories, dynamic material you theme, smart display off are the main reasons I use smart launcher.
Plus, its not sold to an analytics company like nova launcher.
Used Nova for a long, long time. Would still be using it now, had I not made the mistake of switching to iPhone for the first time in many years. On my tablets however, I use Smart Launcher.
I switched to Kvaesitso from Nova. It takes a lot of getting used to because it does most stuff differently, but I'm finding it light, efficient and functional.
