Ratings and reviews

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.

Ive used this app for 5 or 6 years now. Seamless and clean, with great customization that isn't overwhelming, but also can be very personalized. Being able to tap my home button to pull up my frequent, recent, and new apps, plus an app store/google search bar just feels so much simpler and faster. Came back to rate this app because I accidentally deleted it with some other apps and I could tell immediately that it was removed. When I reinstalled it, all my settings had saved. 10/10

I've been using this for years. Love this app. Unfortunately, as of the recent Android 14 and UI6 update, it has been crashing whereby I can not navigate the pages or utilize any of the functions. The app is essentially unresponsive. Often times requiring a reboot to resolve.
