Ratings and reviews

I've been using this launcher for quite a while now. Have tried many launchers in the past but this one gets the blend of minimalism and features just right I think. My only problem is that sometimes the app drawer icons get stuck as white dots like some animation stopped and never proceeds. I have to go into the advanced settings and restart KISS to get them back to normal.

1.The app icons of certain apps from time to time goes missing, though everything works mormally. After a restart this is resolved. Please work on this. 2. While using high intensive apps such as Camera, i have noticed that the launcher crashes. So, again i would have to wait a few seconds for it to become normal. p.s the concept of this launcher is quite brilliant. People should try it at least once to get a taste.

Best launcher I've ever used and ive used all the major ones (and many others too). Too many are focused on all these useless gimmick features. All I wanted was a nice clean, empty, screen. This launcher achieves that perfectly. Been using for almost a year now with no issues. I would like to see some additional gesture support but other than that I have no suggestions. It's perfect and exactly what I've been looking for. Oh and it's FOSS. I'd give this 6 stars if I could.
