I’ve always used custom launchers on Android. The stock launchers like One UI Home and Launcher3 just don’t cut it for me.

Despite that, I’m hard pressed to find any open-source launcher that meets my expectations like Smart Launcher does.

Any suggestions?

    I want gesture support so badly like in Nova Launcher.

    Swipe up for one app, swipe down for another app, etc.

    smart launcher does exactly one gesture (double tap) and is woefully inadequate for me.

    Does lawn chair offer that?

      I’m seeing a “Gestures” section in Lawnchair which has the following:

      • Double tap
      • Swipe up
      • Swipe down
      • Home button
      • Back button

      Each one of them has the following options:

      • Do nothing
      • Rest mode
      • Open notifications panel
      • Open app drawer
      • Open app finder
      • Open search
      • Open app (this one seems to be the one you are asking for)

      Not sure if this are the exact names they show up in english, though

          Oh no, don’t thank me - thank Lawnchair devs! Their launcher is actually great (well at least for me it is, hope that it is for you too).
