I’ve seen quite a few launchers on F-Droid, but I really fail to see what their advantages over the stock one are. I mean, what can be meaningfully different about arranging apps in a grid? But I guess the existence of so many options goes to show I just don’t get the gist of it.

So what launchers actually provide some interesting features that make it worth switching to them?

    It’s been a while since I tried Niagara, but I’ve been using Pro Launcher the past few years. Earlier this week I decided to try a more traditional launcher again. It was terrible. 😆

    I like that Pro gives me the second set of apps on the right. Then a swipe in from the left gives me my Capy feed while a swipe in from the right brings up Pro’s built in quick notes. Swipe up for all apps going straight to search.

    Quick update: my home screen went totally unresponsive after I posted. Then I realized I was tapping at the screenshot. Derp.
