    For those who don’t know, Nova got sold to an analytics company a while back. It’s a spy app now.

      I remembered that I bought the launcher at 0.99 USD but not when. I checked my emails and it was 8 years ago. I think the last time I used Nova launcher was around 6 years ago.

      It’s unfortunate that they got sold to an analytics company. It was an good launcher

        I’ve been using it the whole time across dozens of devices. I love it. I guess I need to look into switching.

      There’s never good news. Guess I gotta try and find a new launcher that isn’t ass. Update: did some googling of the time line and my Nova launcher hasn’t been updated since Dec of 21 ,before the acquisition, so it should be good.

        I like action launcher. I’ve tried Lawnchair 2 but it’s still in beta after like 7 years. Honestly haven’t found any launchers that are still actively updated that aren’t shitty. The others seem to be either lacking features, customization or are overly simplistic.

        Unfortunately nothing much. I tried Lawnchair, ADW (on a whim, hasn’t been updated in almost a decade), and action launcher. Went with AIO again lol.

        I hear LightningLauncher got open sourced! Pierre isn’t working on it anymore though; there’s a fork being worked on here.

          This app isn’t available for your device because it was made for an older version of Android

          Boooooooo!

          How do I go about installing the fork?

            Oof, looks like the only available release is a debug version. It’d probably be a good idea to hold off until it’s a bit more up to date. I loved lightning launcher and I’m excited it’s making a comeback, it was the only app that would let me do a vertically sliding single-column folder lol.

      I was just thinking “it’s refreshing that you only have to pay for it once, instead of it being a live service.” I guess there’s always a catch.
