Im not gonna lie to you! this is the best launcher out there, I also thought nova was but this is amazing especially if you are a gamer on your phone/tab as is categorizes everything.
I wasn't a fan of quick start so I changed it back to the usual home screen.

I had this on a Samsung Note 3. It's a great launcher, does well for a large phone when you are using it one handed.
Had roughly 6 icons on my home screen in a dial set up. Each icon had a single press for one app and double touch for a different app.
But for my Samsung s6 edge. I went with the Nova launcher an with a retro icon pack. I've found the standard style is a much nicer look and a lot easier for people to use my phone.
Their both good launchers. Doubt ones much better than the other.

Which Rayman game is that?

Possibly the one that was free with ubisoft's 30 days of gifts.
I've used this on my last three phones - so easy to set up, customisable, intuitive, well worth 10p for the full version. Beats MIUI which I use on my current Xiaomi phone hands down.
Lots of different themes available too

I also like that you can set the option to just say OK google to it without doing anything.

I do it all the time on the App Store, I pay far over what I should for games that I play the odd time and forget about like punchclub :smile:

It's an OK launcher and well worth a look for 10p. Still, I will continue to use Action Launcher 3.

It was a year or so back, I just remember mine being in a circle dial, with either 6 or 8 icons.
Something close to
But the other options were bubbles along one side, or a grid system, if I recall correctly.
was a great launcher but didn't find it suited me for the slightly smaller screen. :smiley:

The Nintendo Gameboy screen was under 3" (edit: It was 2.6")
I paid a few days ago €3.99 for it...doesn't matter, the developer deserves it, it's the best launcher by far.

Used to use an older version ages ago on my previous donkey of a phone. Gonna try this instead of Nova Prime for a bit and see if it's better for me battery life wise. Been wanting to try out Evie Launcher too.

Excellent! I`ve used this on all of my android devices, even cameras. Every manufacturer seems to have their own idea of a `good` different start screen. Some are simply awful. It`s good to put a familiar face on all!

Any if that controller works on PS1 Emulators?
On topic, I've been using this launcher for the past couple of years and I love it. Keeps things simple and can even set up double tap options on the dial screen to achieve ultimate laziness; ie if I double tap the Facebook icon the Messenger app loads.

As standard it doesnt work with any games only their own but if you install
It works with pretty much anything, i use it with SNES/Mega Drive emulators

I'm sorry to ask a silly question, but what is a launcher and why would I want one?
Looking at the posts it looks like it is some sort of skin that simplifies the screen layout of your phone. Is that what it does?
Thanks in advance.

29 Nov 163#38
It's what runs your home screen so how quick you get to apps and how good phone looks and how it scrolls to other home pages. A great way to make an old phone look new.

how do you find yours?

Take out a Google Play Music Trial, that should give you a 10% discount, bringing the price down to 9p

The OK Google isn't related to this skin. I think to be able to say it even when off, is particular to Marshmallow or Nougat. I can do it (and to be able to do it when on standby is brilliant) on a Nexus 5x running Nougat and using Nova. Still going to try this launcher though - it's 10p and I'm bored...

I got a moga pro, closer to £20-30, has a feel that's closer to an xbox 360 shaped controller.
I don't recall having to download drivers to get it to work with fpse ps1 emulator, gba or snes emulators. Just connect via the moga app in mode A or B (think B for emulators) then play.
I can't give an opinion on the lower model unfortunately.

Would get it, but can't be bothered with loading up 10p on my account. First world problems!
Anyone want to buy it from me and I'll put two extra euro in our next charity round at work..

Time for a reminder about the Google Rewards app?
I'm sure most are aware of it but it might help someone...(and it's been a while since it was posted in freebies)
answering 1x 2 question survey would be enough to get this for free.....

As someone who loves all the settings and customisation in Nova, what features make this better/different and worth trying?

Each to their own I suppose - hated this launcher, uninstalled - can't argue with 10p though I suppose.
This said, I also hated Nova. Maybe I just don't like launchers?

Why would I want this over stock Galaxy S7?
Would it slow the phone down/ bloat it or use more battery.
Can someone tell me why I would want this- sorry, but I am reticent to download and it muck up my phone.
Many thanks.

I thought I had been blacklisted for making up random answers to all the surveys, but I recently reinstalled it and lo and behold, it is working again.
I got 60p for a survey yesterday, for which the first answer indicated I was female and used every kind of advertising every day. The way I figure it, the more answers you give a positive answer to, the more surveys you will get as a result.
Let's hope their team aren't reading this or I will be getting banned again. :sunglasses:

Also with vivid mode and a decent brightness scaler the color seems enough. Don't think it's captured well in a print screen though.

I noticed if I don't get surveys for a while I just open the app again. This seems to wake it up as there's usually a new survey next morning and for a little while after before it goes back to sleep.

There are many free launchers, which are ten times better than this like Apex Launcher. This is absolute crap, a waste of 10p.
