Branch Metrics sucks. They fired almost of all people working for Nova.

    Neo Launcher is the way. FOSS with all the same features as Nova.

      You’re posting this brief message a lot, so I googled it, and, no releases since October 2022? Only on f droid and is there really no way to pay other than PayPal donations? Am I looking at the right neo launcher?

      Development isn’t dead, but the lack of releases and fees (one time purchase, please) don’t give me confidence.

        I moved to lawnchair 2 beta (or whatever it is.) I liked neo but the promised release just never came. I kept having it crash and it always took a few seconds to restart.

        Lawnchair has been reliable though even for a beta.

        Dev seems close to next release, I put in a bug on searching with SearXNG and it was fixed the next day.

        And looks like alpha 1 hit the release page.

        One time purchase?

        It’s a open source project, you can install it for free, but you could still donate.

        As far as I can tell they are working on a new release.

        Don’t use it now, but you can follow their GitHub/ F-Droid to see when they get a new release.
