A good Nova replacement but still lacks some features and polish. Wallpaper picker always seems to offset the image you select and align so if its symmetrical in the picker it will be offset to the left once applied. No option to reorder app folders in the app drawer so once theyve been made you would have to empty them out and rename to change which folder appears first. There are a couple more examples but otherwise it's a nice clean launcher that gets the job done.

Best launcher I could find! No ads, no premium prompts, plenty of customization, and the option to make it look completely stock. You can make it just be a simple home screen with no search bar or anything, but if you prefer that stuff you can still add it. The customization is just great. This app has everything I could ever possibly need in a launcher. Only tiny complaint is more themes would be nice, and I'd like to remove the arrow at the bottom. Great work devs!

the simplicity of this launcher is refreshing. I was using Flicr Pro but since Android 14, it started to get hung and unresponsive. It has stopped development long time ago. Then I found Pear. The last breed of its kind. So far it works well on 14. If the app drawer would spring up faster to fill the screen, it would be superb. Anyhow I hope the developer would continue the updates and features. I would pay for it on a version to version basis.
