I’ve been using the releases from github for a while, but this is a great step towards availability for many.

    Is there something I would be missing when moving from Nova?

      As someone who used Nova for … shit, feels like a decade, I was also concerned about this when switching (I heard Nova was sold to an ad company and was super sketchy) but after using Niagara Launcher for the past month, I realized Nova was more complex than I ever needed. I haven’t tried Lawnchair yet, but don’t be afraid of switching unless there’s a hyper-specific feature you can’t live without. Give another launcher a shot for a week and see if you’re really missing Nova still!

          I use Total Launcher, and it has this (and in fact you can swipe in 4 directions ⬆️⬇️⬅️➡️ rather than just the 2 that Nova offers).

          Means that from my home screen I could, in theory, access 48 different apps/actions/shortcuts, as well as opening the 12 folders they represent. I use about 40 of them, but it’s good to have space for more if I want it.

      I thought nova wasn’t being maintained anymore.

      I was on nova too. I tried a couple of launchers and settled on lawnchair. I like that it doesn’t try and force a new way to interact with your icons and screens.

      It hasn’t the amount of flexibility of Nova, but I really didn’t need all that, I just want a nice stable launcher I can set up and forget.
