Ratings and reviews

It has some running issues. Apps will not uninstall, even if I try the way it describes in the directions, and my newest installed apps don't appear at all. Also, icons for apps I deleted using settings, since I couldn't access them from the homepage, are not disappearing. The layout is really clean, so I hope the developer can work the bugs out.

Very simple launcher which uses a tiny amount of space. Way better than using Google's default "stock Android" launcher which is full of Google data collection and uses up RAM. I keep it installed on my phone as a backup launcher incase my launcher gets messed up for some reason. Also great for old or slow Android phones which makes it run better and use less RAM. New version uses 893 kb storage while old version uses 84 kb, probably Google's fault. Guess I'll be keeping the old version.

Does what it says but "Dial" is not showing up, I have to tap "Contacts" and go to the Dial tab instead. Also, some apps show up twice. I have Android 4. If there was some sort if favorites option then it would be more usable as daily launcher. Cant complain, does what it says, good work, thank.
