Never Sorry With The Best! I don't know what I could possibly say about Nova that hasn't already been said. It is the smoothest, most stable launcher on the market, bar none. It has been for years, and it still is today. The devs have designed a feature-rich, rock solid launcher that runs on just about everything. I upgraded my phone to MM 6.01 today, and after the BFH (boot from hell) there it was, just like an old friend.

Very good solid app I have used Nova for years and whenever I get a new phone it is one of the first apps that I Install. It works well and has a lot of options for power users. It also allows you to back and restore which is a real bonus when you have to wipe your phone, or if switching from one phone to another saving you lots of time. It's not 100% perfect but it probably is closest to that than any other Android launcher. I have the paid version to support the developers but the free version is also very good.

Great launcher, easy to setup, stable I have several Samsung devices running Android 4.4.2, Android 5 and Android 6 with different versions of the standard Samsung Touch Wiz launcher which is frustrating. Using Nova I can give my devices the same look and feel. I love the App Drawer and the extra config options. I can now run everything off 3 home screens. I recommend trying Nova if you have multiple devices, it greatly improves my Android experience and battery life is not compromised. 18 months on very stable, no issues, brilliant.

Yasssssss Can't believe it took me this long to purchase this amazing app. Didn't want to buy it at first cause I didn't want to believe the hype surrounding the app, but have to admit I regret not buying it sooner. Amazing launcher all around! Runs so smooth and has amazing customizations. If you have the cash I'd say don't wait a second longer. Go for it and purchase this launcher ASAP I promise u won't regret it!

Perfect! I wanted to be able to turn off my screen with a double-tap instead of having to push the power button. This fantastic app makes it possible and it works every single time. I also love not being forced to have the Google search bar permanently on my home screen. I removed it first thing.. Thank you. Google Nexus 6

People say it's the best... It is!!!! So many people said it was the best. I kept hearing it. I tried many others. This one was put on sale so I took the chance. It is. You can change everything to be complicated and super customized, or super simple. You want everything completely different, you can. You want a dark version of Google launcher, you can. You want Samsung easy (senior friendly) format launcher, yep got that too. You want to change icons specifically, enlarge them, getsures, quick launch. What are you waiting for? Get it!

All the customizations! Feature rich with tons of tweak options to explore, so many I likely couldn't get bored trying them all. Even if I didn't use any of the Prime features at first, making this purchase to support the author is my way to thank them for such a great app! Many thanks :]

4 stars for now.../5* and + It's an awesome app, no doubt about it. I recently had an update to Lollipop and the gesture for expanding notification bar stopped working. Pls check and advice. I would definitely change my rating back to 5stars when fixed./Fixed and as I promised 5* no doubt... Thanks Dev... also if its possible to add random scrolling effects instead of just one or the other, thx...

Almost Perfect It is not a theme oriented launcher but you can change most everything from the icons size and image to making your screen transition with lots of different effects. I want to change my setting menu background color to dark so it's easy on the eyes and less power consuming. It doesnt seem any app offers this with out using exposed though which is not currently compatible with my version of android so poo. But this is the best launcher I've used so far and ive been through, solo, smart, & action launchers.

I can't believe it Was very happy with the launcher. Very fast. Customizable...buttttt you can't rearrange apps in the app drawer.... whyyyy nova whyyyyyyy. It just ruined the whole launcher. Everything else amazing. You have so much to customize. But u can't even put the apps in the order that you want. Bought the prime version thinking it might be a prime feature but I was wrong. Even the stock launcher has this function. I mean you would just assume nova would. If you bring can do it with the next update then u get 5stars.

Beautiful, fast and functional After having tried hubdereds of launchers from all over, i cant help but cone back to nova. It's just too faculous to loose. The premium version is even better and provides a lot of fubctionality. A must have for people who want the cream android experience with a lot of added and useful functionality

Very good launcher Have tried many launchers and have been a big fan of apex. However got Nova in an offer so opted for it. The prime version is good, has no ads and is quick to respond. The effects for scroll - desktop and launcher both- are not so good. Customization options are really good. One of the best ones I felt is the one where you can overlap many icons or widgets in the desktop. love this one. Keep up the good work.

Fingerprint scanner to unlock the lock screen stops showing up after updating to Marshmallow on LG V10. We noticed that it is somehow connected to Nova Launcher's double tap to lock gesture of which after you double tap to turn off the screen, if you try to wake the V10 up with either the power button or double tap, 95% of the time the fingerprint unlock will not show up but whatever you set as the secondary lock would (pattern, pin, tap, etc). But if we revert back to the stock LG UX launcher, the fingerprint to unlock prompt always work. Kindly look into this as the fingerprint unlock was working perfectly with Nova Launcher on Lollipop. Thank you and also for your wonderful launcher.

awesome, have a suggestion have been using adw for 3 yrs.. shifted to nova prime now.. can u plz allow us to protect our locked desktop by a pin or password.. this used to happen in adw.. so instead of just showing us the pad lock on desktop (which can be unlocked by any other user also), let us use a pin so that only WE can unlock the desktop in order to rearrange icons or do whatever we want.. also the same with NOVA SETTINGS, let us lock them with the same pin or password so only we can access them

One of the best apps in the market I bought this ages ago, but recently decided to give Touchwiz another try. It was okay, but I went back to Nova and have no plans to leave it again. Smoothness, loads of customisation and an all round better experience for your phone. If you're new to launchers, don't waste time - choose the best.

Go-to launcher First thing I setup whenever getting a new phone. Plenty of customization without being confusing. It also gets updated with meaningful improvements. Free version is great. I paid for the full version and don't really use the additional features, but I can see why some people would find them worth the upgrade.

Definition of a phone launcher! Love it. Not a fan of TouchWiz. So I originally went with Google now launcher, which I find issues with I.E. Battery, icons, general layouts of things, then I found nova! Nova let's me import my mobile desktop!customizing as much as you'd like to get into. It's really a nice app. So far so great!

The best all-rounder I've tried many launchers. Some has many customisation options. But they lack the simplicity. Some has simplicity but they lack customisations. I found nova as the best in overall category. I've some suggestions for improvement. 1. Add triple tap in gestures. I saw in it some other launchers and they are useful. 2. Add some widgets like recent actions, recent calls. I saw it in arrow launcher by Microsoft. 3. Option to lock horizontal scrolling in desktop and add swipe to left and swipe to right gestures.

Loving it! Better than oneplus launcher! This has really made things so much easier. When I used to use the OnePlus launcher that came with my OPT, it would automatically delete my gadgets from the home screen, as it decided I clearly didn't need them when hard resetting. Real pain. I decided to try this and voila, no problems anymore ☺ Also, folder with many many icons in one small place, great. Generally love it. Nothing I dislike so far.

Nova Launcher Review This app is awesome if you're looking to change your launcher and overall look and feel of the phone. My only issue is I am unable to use the Google Calendar widget with nova launcher. I have a galaxy S7 edge model. On TouchWiz or the standard launcher, I can use the calendar widget fine. Any suggestions?

Nova launcher alone is the best launcher for speed, customizability, and is battery friendly. Prime even adds more features, such as gestures, that really makes your phone quicker to use and makes it even more customizable. Don't regret buying it. I would definitely recommend this to anyone. Edit: 4.3.1 seemed to have issues with gestures not working properly sometimes. 4.3.0 works just fine though

One of the best launchers but... I set Nova ( prime ) to default home nd it keep reverting back to the crappy LG ui on my g4. Particularly after exiting Google+ app it doesn't stick. Otherwise it's the best launcher for a completely stock phone. Good work devs, i like how the ui changes when I updates my phone :)

A cut above This is the single most feature rich and, above all, resource light launcher I've ever had the pleasure of using. My only complaint (which, depending on who you ask) is that there's no version of this to turn your launcher info something more like Windows phone. Let's face it, W10M is a gorgeous interface.

YES! Just YES! Easily, hands down, the best android experience. On the S7Edge it's just RIDICULOUS! Easy, smooth, fast, customizable, and very rarely a glitch. Feels like a totally different phone when changed from TouchWiz. My only suggestion would be to have a blurred background for opening the app drawer or folders the way the Note 7 has. Other than that 4.8/5. Love it!

Wow... I didn't know I could take control of my phone like this. It's great to be able to toggle all of these options and have my phone look exactly how I want it to!! Being able to know how many unread messages I have is a godsend on my Nexus 6p. And I think this is the first time I've ever paid $5 for an app, but it's well worth it.

Puts all other launchers to shame Nova launcher has consistently outshined any stock Android launcher or any other third party launcher. I know everyone has their own preference, but I urge you, if you truly enjoy having your tech personally customized then Nova will not disappoint. I've used a ton of launchers over the years, and nothing ever compared to Nova. Very simple Ui, and yet the perfect blend of customization for a truly unique experience. I don't ever make purchases on applications, but I was more than happy to "show my support".

Best one for me but... This has been the only "go to" launcher for me. Ive been using nova with my past devices. Now, my only problem is that your double tap to sleep locks my nexus 6p. And when i use the fingerprint, it would still require me to input my pin password. Hope you find a solution to this. Only way to use double tap to sleep is to root. And i dont want to root :)

Night Mode Added After Request 7 STARS! Before, Nova Launcher had no option to set the settings menu to a black background. It has many useful features, but the one I wanted the most was missing.. AND THEN THE DEVELOPERS ADDED IT! 👍👍👍 After using Nova Launcher for a few days, I changed from 1 star to 4, now to 5. Nova Launcher ends the Samsung lock on how you use your phone. This is the best Launcher by far. It made my phone much more enjoyable and easier to navigate.

Best launcher ever. I have used a large variety of launches available on the play store and as soon as I got this one, I stuck with it. It's simple, high performing and has better variety of functions then android stock launcher, like the search for apps really is a basic thing that should be included... after a month or so I purchased the prime version, I'm committed to keeping this launcher

Brilliant ! Very customizable but simple to setup and use. Other apps seem bulky and complicated to customize but this app has got it just right. Faster, smoother and far better than Jelly Bean's stock launcher. Absolutely love that you can hide the clock in the status bar. Only downside to this app is you can't arrange apps as you wish in the draw. Also needs an app lock feature. Other than that, I would recommend.

Wallpaper issues. It would be truly the best if we could also change the fonts without the need to root. It is simple to learn and use, looks great! >< I noticed wallpaper rendering issues in landscape mode when using Twilight. Also there are issues with the wallpaper in portrait mode, somehow a smaller version of the image is superimposed on the actual wallpaper. It can only be fixed if I change the wallpaper.

Alternate Home Screen with LOTS of Options I have enjoyed Google Now as my home screen but was looking for more customization. Nova met this need much more than all the others I tested. It's responsive and has many features. One item I would like to see is allow new names to start Google's voice search. This doesn't lower Nova from a 5 for value, speed and options.

Default launchers should be this cool I have only tried a couple other launchers many years back and was a little skeptical that this one would be that different but I am glad I gave it a try. This has been the best user experience that I have had with any phone setup. The customization options and speed at which everything flows is top notch. I am glad I stumbled across Nova Launcher because I don't see myself going back to any default launchers again.

Excellent Continued Improvement I am a long time user of Nova, having started using it about 5 years ago. At the time it was a necessity for the performance gains and battery saving it provided over the bundled Android launcher with my Galaxy Nexus and later with my Note 2. Now I use it for the excellent improvements in UI customizability, cool animations, and continued focus on a clean and non bloated / adware supported launcher like so many others out there. Really great job by the whole team, keep up the good work!

Nice, simple, smooth and effective! I used Touchwiz but wasn't pleased that it isn't possible to get more rows and columns... untill now! This one rocks and it took over my screen layout from Touchwiz (position of buttons and widgets and all) and that made me very happy! Gestures are also very handy. I use double tap to open file manager, swipe up for camera, etc. Definitely recommended!

Best launcher I've used The customizations with this launcher are amazing and robust. You can really release the fun and personalization of your Android. However, in a time when we accept products that don't work, this product works as described. It has yet to crash once and very smooth. One suggestion to the programmers, an option for a blurred background when opening folders or the app drawer, would be awesome! Fantastic product overall!

Love it Awesome launcher. After marshmallow update I have been experiencing problems though. Number one... After I wake the phone up, I see that the launcher is opening apps on it's own. I would make sure that I have no open apps before putting it to sleep so I know it's not user error. Also my notification bar is hidden by my own choice, however when I manually call it down, it almost immediately goes back up, even if I'm scrolling thru it. Please fix then five stars.

Best launcher out there I've used almost every dang launcher out there. They're normally great at first then a week, or a couple weeks go by and your phone lags out, battery dies quick and several other things... From the launchers. THIS LAUNCHER I've been using this launcher for about 4 months and there are ZERO ISSUES. it's frigging fantastic...

Amazing launcher, minor gripes. While I absolutely adore all the personalization(too many options to list but I love them all), I couldn't help but revert back to TouchWiz on my s7 edge. My motion effect option and predictive text disappeared after a couple days with nova. If this bug gets fixed, I will come back to nova.

Best Launcher across all Android devices Title says it all, had an S5 works on S6. Getting a Nexus 6P and will still use the same launcher. The unread badges is one of the best things about this launcher. Other launchers usually glitch or don't appear at all. This one is reliable plus customizability is endless with this launcher. I've had over 10 different home screen setups because of the creativity you can get with a launcher this powerful. Gestures and circle animations are the best to make your Android device unique from others.
