Ratings and reviews

Z launcher was my all time favorite launcher for the scribble search and usage-based app presentation, so I'd been dutifully installing it from repositories ever since it was abandoned. ReZ is exactly what I'd hoped Z would be by now if it were still in development. Much to my surprise, ReZ is even better than the original (I prefer the app tray and the second page for widgets). Thank you for creating this!

Excellent implementation of scribble search; I've set it as my default. A major issue for me is that work apps can't be toggled on or searched for because of a "security exception," which offers no explanation.

Thank you!! After this last update the Z Launcher just wasn't working right. I feel like I can't even navigate other launchers anymore and this is SO close to the Z Launcher. Maybe it can learn our habits, and when we use certain apps the most (like time of day we generally use them). Not sure how difficult that is to program. Maybe it already will but I just downloaded so not sure. Still, LOVE IT!! THANKS AGAIN! Would love to donate a little to the cause if possible.
