Android Launchers - eviltoast

I’ve always used custom launchers on Android. The stock launchers like One UI Home and Launcher3 just don’t cut it for me.

Despite that, I’m hard pressed to find any open-source launcher that meets my expectations like Smart Launcher does.

Any suggestions?

    I’ve been using KISS launcher for ages. I just can’t go back to a “normal” launcher again. No more swiping through pages to find and open an app. Just type a letter or two of the app name and voila.

    10/10 - Would FOSS again.

        LOL! Me too, I started using a lot the search function and I ended up moving to a FOSS alternative that is search-focused (and a lot lighter)

      Same. Been using it for ages : nice background pic & just a calendar widget, the six shortcuts at the bottom - it’s so fast, simple, unobtrusive.

      pie launcher is similar but with a quickdraw action for the commonly used apps.

      once I got used to it I could never think about going back

      been having some issues with it lately though and it’s tough!
