Thanks a lot
I have tried Discreet launcher and Simple launcher. Found both to be okay.
Check out Kvaesitso, if you ever decide to try out something different.
Kvaesitso 100℅. With the widgets setup for favorite app pinning, app tag filters for searching (made me not miss Nova launcher app drawer folders) and ability to add third party app widgets is a great mix of Nova, AOSP, and KISS.
Thanks, I'll try
Very nice discreet
I like discreet launcher. So many oss launchers don't support installing web apps from browsers, but it does, and it keeps my home screen clean. Only thing i don't like is that it flows icons as a list, so if you, say, remove an app early on the list, it moves all the apps after it back one.
Check out kiss and just make it all text based by search
Totally forgot about Kiss. Gonna try. It's a classic and a must have. Hope doesn't consume much RAM
Got almost 300 mb of ram and don't know why
I haven't used mlauncher and I'm not sure what kind of tweaks you're looking for but I love Niagara launcher. I recently tried a couple others for a pretty extended period of time but installing Niagara again felt like coming home.
Like make letters bold. Can't use Niagara in this phone is a memory eater
Is there a launcher that lets me hide applications and create folders?
Nova launcher is the last non FOSS application I use
