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

    Not being a Debbie downer but what’s good/different about this launcher?

        That was honestly the only thing i needed from a launcher when i got my pixel 6a two years ago, but there is so much more to it as i later discovered. All the tweaking that is possible on top of the (very good) pixel launcher, which it was built upon but had this one flaw.

          Same here. I literally swapped to Lawnchair to get rid of Google search from my home screen.

          Unfortunately it doesn’t support Private Space yet.

      Feels somewhat close to the Pixel launcher, with icon packs support, with a couple of extra features and doesn’t belong to a company that is trying to monetize it to hell.

        I still can’t believe Samsung now supports icon packs but pixel launcher still doesn’t

        Dumb question, I’ve been using Nova launcher since forever but I think there was some drama recently about it being acquired. Is that the major difference between it and lawn chair?

          Nova is more flexible, but honestly I find that Lawnchair strikes a good balance between simplicity and customizability.

          One of them. The other is that this is open source which has certain implications that don’t exist exist for Nova.
