So, anybody know a good launcher to use once Nova goes offline?

    Man I am really struggling to find a replacement launcher that works for foldables. Neo and Total have scaling issues that make icons giant

      I’ve been using Niagara launcher and it works great. It’s a different launcher “workflow” though.

      Microsoft launcher is super underrated IMO. Lots of customization. I use it for my foldable, but it’s a bit hit or miss sometimes (scaling of folders sometimes gets messed up going from open to closed).

        Seems to have a lot of features I like so far

        I can’t seem to add more than two apps to a folder, is that a known bug?

          It’s not a known bug, could you provide more details? I just tried creating a home screen folder with 4 apps, and am able to.

            Yeah sorry lol, I was not clear.
            When I go to add a third app it just goes behind the folder. Tried a dozen times with different apps and only ever takes 2 per folder.

            Just tried again and it let me do 4! Then the 5th just goes into its own folder and cant be added.

            Here is a clip showing it happening

              Thank you so much! A video speaks a million words and yours helped me to instantly identify what’s causing this.

              What happens is that when you remove apps from a folder until one is left, that app remains as a folder, and currently this launcher doesn’t allow you to drag one folder over another.

              A workaround is to tap that “folder” and drag that last app out from its “folder”, into the other folder you want it to be in.

              A fix for this is planned, thanks for highlighting this confusing behaviour ;)
