Ratings and reviews

It's not the most customizable launcher available but it's free and basically just an upgraded version of the stock MIUI launcher. It has an app drawer and the extremely useful feature to filter the apps by the color of their icon and is the main way I find my apps. The app search is also a really reliable quick backup if you don't want to use colors since it's at the bottom of the screen, easy to reach. Simple, but it just works.

The experience is completely fine, but I really don't understand why everyone loves this launcher. Yeah the animations are smooth and everything works as it should, but it doesn't do anything special. It doesn't support icon masking, and you can't select individual icons for ones which aren't themed. It's overall kind of just average, Nova and Apex launcher are just better. Even the Microsoft launcher has more features than this one.

So overall it's ok. Not impressed, no features.. I would like to be able to move icons around in app drawer and when they're in groups automatically be able to put ones where I want. Secondly the Launcher seems to have issues with messenger and my icon disappearing from the home screen and my texts sending and disappearing. It should not interfere with my other apps.. So I'm deleting this one and on to find a better one.
