Ratings and reviews

I 've been using this launcher for years. There is only one small issue. Sometimes, not always, after rebooting the device, all the chrome shortcuts disappear from the homescreen. This also happens with the profile shortcuts of the Volume app and i have to set them up again each time. Again, this seems to happen randomly. Other than that, kudos for a great app.

Would love a UI shortcut update to lock/unlock home screen. A regular use case having to toggle on advanced options is a minor pain. Once updated to v7 that floating icon ontop I can drag around that seems to do nothing and I can't remove that I have to shift out of the way when blocking icons etc. Ultimately a great experience even on the lower mid tier devices use.. free update to v7 was a banger.. I swear by Nova and apart from a couple bugbears it runs smooth and is feature rich.

Nova is the best launcher I've found on Android, by far. A lot of other launchers are gimmicky and unpolished. But Nova provides a clean, baseline experience akin to a generic Android or Apple home screen. It then lets you make it your own; with customization options for nearly everything you could think of. Icons, fonts, colors, spacing, gestures, app drawers, and docks. Past releases had a few crashes and visual glitches, but lately things seem pretty stable.
