5 ★ App is great again after having to buy it again, and was refunded for the second purchase. It might have caused my phone to black screen, not sure as it seems to be a problem with HTC one m8. I just know the app had updated same day as black screen. Other wise great app :D
4 ★ App is nice, runs fine and all, but it just isn't unique enough. It looks too much like action launcher. I say open a few more features for free, and come up with some truly unique ones aswell.
3 ★ I really like this launcher but it keeps force closing. I'm not sure why but if you can help I'd be grateful. This launcher has everything I want in a launcher so I pray you can fix the problem.
1 ★ This developer has a number of paid apps on the play store that are all abandoned. He does not update our support them but will take your money through in app purchases. Beware! I was his victim twice, never again.
1 ★ Do not install. This app has been abandoned. They need to pull it from playstore. It's buggy and it won't be fixed but he'll still take your money though
4 ★ This has the potential to become one of the best Android launchers ever. This could even surpass Nova Launcher! This still has a few kinks to work out, but this is a very young launcher. I liked Launcher X.
1 ★ UPDATE: After some research it seems this is no longer being worked on. DO NOT BUY! You'll get an unusuable launcher and no refund! Its a good idea, but they really should've worked out some of the major bugs before charging $10 for it. Pluses: It has the combined functions of both Nova and ADW. The side drawer is very Omni Swipe meets app drawer, which I appreciate. Minuses: Crashes. Always.
2 ★ Give credit where it's do, I was attracted by your launchers look until I realized you blatantly took someone's ideas, not copied & incorporated into your own, but took their launcher & called it your own *from what it looks like*
5 ★ All I can say is,"impressive." I wasn't even in the market for a new launcher as Nova Prime has long been my go to and has been unrivaled. You guys really nailed it with this one. It's like Nova Prime the next generation. I look forward to what you guys come up with next.
5 ★ this app culminates the best of every other launcher South their and gives you precice control of the look and feel of your device. The only issue I have at times is the seldom stiffer or crash but for this heartache you hey the most macular control of you device, this is truly a wonderful application
2 ★ You ripped off every thing. [ಠ_ಠ] Salute to you! I have a request, Will you please make an effort to steal quick edit feature recently introduced in action launcher. That would take your ripped off launcher to another level..
2 ★ Installed on my S6 Edge. I liked the look, the options, the ability to control everything. But it was extremely buggy. There were times my phone literally stopped working. I had issues with other software in the past and have an event logger, and ran it and found an average of 14 events per day from the launcher that made my phone run terrible. If the errors, bugs, etc are fixed, this launcher will be great, otherwise don't bother installing.
2 ★ I came here after the xdadevelopers video. They said that this was a customizable launcher. But this is no where near the competitors. Check out Nova and go launchers. They have far more features. Like folders in the app drawer for example.or swipes on icons to open other stuff. This app is for plebs. Edit: so apparently you need to pay for all the features that Go gives free. How about letting the users try before they buy?
5 ★ This is the way it should be .i never had so much fun with a launcher. End less things that can be done even took my icon pack .i have tried so many launchers .but this one i really love.please you all just try it .it is very awesome. this should be at top of launchers where everyone can have a chance to try it .i came across it by mistake. And will never regret it.try snow affect with black background☺
3 ★ The app list keeps refreshing too quick and makes it harder to pick a app to use. It's annoying. Jan 10th - now this app removed apps off the bottom row. Sigh. It uninstalling.
