    I don’t like how I can’t choose to have icons anywhere but the bottom two rows

        I don’t know how less space to place icons keeps it more simple. I have been using the same layout in nova launcher for like 10 years 😂

    Like the ideas so far.

    My requests/thoughts:

    Option to integrate or remove the bottom icons with the other rows… When setting sizes they don’t match up.

    Love the rows themselves, fits my preferences well. Especially the arrangement haptics!

    Disable the media players option? Maybe dynamically expand from a single icon when in use? Dedicate to a specific media source?

    Widget picker is a bit of a mess, option to sort by application?

    So far really liking what it is. Keep at it please!

    Kinda like it, and mostly because it’s FOSS, but will keep using “Home Launcher” (app.homelauncher, 28.0.28):

    • Allows to tie gestures to certain actions, though it still can’t bind double tap on an empty area of the screen to turn it off. I wish either one had this option
    • Won’t distort the icons in any way besides their sizing, as Ion Launcher does
    • Lets to set another icon for any app
    • Can hide apps from the drawer

        No need to thank me, I’d like to contribute by coding but I have no idea about Java/Kotlin/Dart/etc so… I hope you keep with it though - I’d try it again in the future to see how it’s going and hopefully move to Ion. Again, the fact it its FOSS it’s a big plus.

    I gave up trying new launchers years ago, I would try them and fall back on Nova. No one even comes close to functionality as Nova

    Never heard of ActionLauncher until last year, but because I bought a new phone, decided to see what’s out there. Multiple slidable docks that enable each app to be an app shortcut as well as a cover/folder for other apps on double tap, completely delighted me. 😉1000057923

    That’s a long way away from being useful.

    Edit: opinion changed, as per the conversation below. I’d say limited use, but definitely viable for those use cases
