Hey all, newbie to the Lemmy, signed up recently.

Also a relative android newbie, I’ve had a pixel 6 for about a year and a half.

I’ve played around with tasker, KWGT, KLWP, and all kinds of other power-user techie apps, so I’m reasonably confident in my ability to tinker with my phone.

I’ve been experimenting with my launcher, having gone with stock pixel launcher for my first half, and then using Lawnchair 12 for the second half, I wanted to try something new.

So, I open the floor up to you guys! What launcher are you using, what do you enjoy, and most importantly, why do you enjoy it? What sets your launcher apart?

    I have been using Smart Launcher 6 for quite a while. Some of its features that I really like are:
    *categorized app drawer
    *Smart widgets developed by the Smart Launcher team, such as the widget stack, music widget, notes, calendar events, icon group widgets…
    *Smart Launcher has a fine positioning tool that allows you to move the widgets with very precise positioning so that you can put them exactly where you want them, it also allows you to resize them
    *The news page, which you can either use Microsoft News or Google Feed
    *Great search function, it will search for apps, web, contacts, calendar, settings, shortcuts, and Play store

      You forget one. Dynamic theme. The launcher changes theme colors based on wallpaper color.

        Yes, you’re right! The launcher has so many great features, it’s hard to name them all.
