That’s a long way away from being useful.
Edit: opinion changed, as per the conversation below. I’d say limited use, but definitely viable for those use cases
Can you elaborate ? I’m looking for a mLauncher replacement and this one seemd interesting, as there is picture/image background for my Onyx e-book
It’s too basic.
No folders, no ability to freely arrange things, so your app drawer is everything, and unorganized. Same with the home screen.
Which, I guess that might actually work for an eink device now that I think about it (just bought a poke 5 myself), particularly one that’s only going to be used as an ereader rather than a general purpose tablet with an eink screen.
There’s just a minimum degree of organization that becomes a problem when it isn’t there, and the device needs to be easy to use. But, yeah, I think you may have just countered my “useless” opinion. It might well be perfect for that use case, both in its bare minimum features, and how lightweight it is.
all these new launchers don’t understand why people stay on nova
because they don’t have some little additions that make a bigger impact on my workflow than I’d expect. like being able to add an empty home screen to make my KLWP setup work properly. or using folders in the app drawer. or swiping sideways on the home screen to launch an app. and so on.
I gave up trying new launchers years ago, I would try them and fall back on Nova. No one even comes close to functionality as Nova
Never heard of ActionLauncher until last year, but because I bought a new phone, decided to see what’s out there. Multiple slidable docks that enable each app to be an app shortcut as well as a cover/folder for other apps on double tap, completely delighted me. 😉
I don’t like how I can’t choose to have icons anywhere but the bottom two rows
