Most of the application have been reprogrammed and redesigned from scratch. Or do not, there’s a setting for it, tweak it, change it, shaken, not stirred.Īnd remember, “There’s no such thing as ‘the unknown,’ only options inside ADW Settings”
And if you prefer getting everything pre-made, use themes! Or widget and template packs! ¿Is your device’s desktop boring? Change it again Sam. In the end, the possibility of configuring it to your likeness is approximately 3720 to 1, what makes it the best launcher because maths never lie.Īnd yeah, we have screens, ¿and icons? for sure, ahh and we have widgets too, what more?, I mean what else?, in fact, you can make your own. I guess you guys aren’t ready for that yet. You may also think “I find your excess of settings disturbing” and we don’t blame you! It’s a totally normal reaction. You know, without freedom of choice there is no creativity. But as the ability to speak does not make us intelligent we’ve made all the opposite. Having said this, we’ve been reading a lot about Google recommendations on abusing app options and settings, and we’ve talked a lot about it. Don’t worry, we understand not everyone has…1.21 gigawatts!! to spend.
You can also determine actions for apps to perform when you swipe over them.You may think the original and best launcher of all time has not been updated, because people assume that time is a strict progression of cause to effect, but *actually* from a non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint, it’s more like we released this update 3 years ago and you didn’t realize. This functionality lets you set app launch movements, such as pinching or double-tapping the home screen. Most notably, you get access to customizable gestures. However, purchasing the Nova Launcher Prime gets you some extra features.
You can use this app 100% free of charge. The issues don’t reoccur each time you unlock the phone or drain your battery. Still, it’s smooth and quick once it’s up and running. Nova’s a bit slower to load than your regular home screen, taking two to three seconds to display the apps when you turn on your Android. The gestures and swiping functionalities also increase app usability, making Nova a fantastic, lightweight productivity booster. Since you’ll remove all unused apps in drawers, you’ll only see what you need upon unlocking your phone. Other options include switching between light and dark themes and adding or removing widgets. The tool creates subgrids across your display, making the addition of apps to the home screen and the creation of app folders easier and more intuitive. It’s not the most feature-rich launcher around but instead, revolving around the organization of what’s already on your display and letting you customize it to your liking. Nova Launcher moves in a similar direction, striking a balance between customization and speed. For example, Smart Launcher 5 emphasizes organization, while Evie is all about minimalism. However, if you dislike that setting, there are tools to shift it.
Various smartphone models come with different displays, but they mostly follow the same principles.
