Just got a new work phone: Galaxy S22. Wanted a pixel but it was out of stock in our internal allocation. Already tired of samsung’s UI and interested in something new.
So what do you like? Bonus points if it works with android enterprise’s profile mode dual app drawers.
SmartLauncher, no contest.
Tell us why. I’ve never used it. What’s the feature that keeps you there?
Probably the app drawer is my favorite feature. It automatically sorts your apps into catagories (Contacts, Games, Internet, Media, Communications, Utilities and Settings, although you can change any categories or create your own). In addition to the categories, you can search alphabetically or find apps via a universal search. The widgets and widget stack handling is great, icon Pack Studio to design your own icons if you’re into that sort of thing. Fun little features like blur and parralax 3D if you choose to enable it. Overall, its a really slick launcher and mature product that’s actively developed with devs that interact with the community. I’ve been using the paid version for years and its the best $ value for anything I’ve ever purchased on Android. It’s this very first thing I put on a new phone. I love playing with new launchers and I try out pretty much every launcher I come across, but this is always my daily driver.
Well, that’s pretty convincing!! I’ll try it! I’ve been using nova pro and never knew about the ownership stuff.
I’ve been using smart launcher for years, I love it. But I just got a new phone, and they seem to have taken away the “flower” pattern for the homepage? I loved having my home page blank, then tapping the center of the screen and having my folders appear
I think those configurations are under smart widgets now, but to be totally honest, I never used the flower stuff, so Im unsure exacctly what you’re describing. Im boring and always just have rows of icons.
