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

    Can recommend Lawnchair. Have been using it for a couple of years now.

    Can I create shortcuts to files and use a custom picture as an icon on the home screen?

    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!

    Unfortunately Lawnchair hasn’t been well on Android 15 for me. Hopefully there’s an update coming soon

    I’ve never really liked any other launchers I’ve tried, but this one does look nice.

    For those who have used it, how does it improve on the standard Pixel launcher?
