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.

Even for its non-standard layout, I've really fallen in love with Kvaesito. Maybe it's because I now don't have to work out which widgets I want to have on my main screen and how to lay them out.

I use the Windows launcher, it's really smooth.

I'm using CalyxOS's default launcher, but on regular Android I pretty much always use Nova launcher.

Since gestures don't work with 3rd party launchers, I am stuck with the default one. Hope Google fixes this issue.

I use ADW because when I switched phones my new version of Android didn't have the carousel home screen and it was the first one I found 😅

SimpleLauncher. Does everything I need it to and nothing more.

[–] Double_A 2 points 1 year ago

I always end up sticking with the stock one. It's usually the only one where widgets work properly.

Smart Launcher. It feels more polished than Nova Launcher, and has most of the features I'd expect from an alternate launcher.

With that said tho, I'm actually using the stock Pixel launcher because... Why not, it's not really bad.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Dunno. What do CalyxOS use? Quickstep? That one.

I'm this weird person who loves the pixel but at the same time tries to degoogle myself. Meaning I have a Pixel 7 Pro with Nova launcher. I think it works okay!

[–] pianoplant 2 points 1 year ago

Haha totally get it. I'm there too....

I use productivity launcher. Its very barebones, works well, quick access to my apps and it's not bright and colorful so my phone is a little less appealing to look at and might reduce my screen time a tiny bit.

Ratio Launcher ! Nothing compares, i always end up going back to it . Not most customizable but it being well designed more than makes up for it . I hope they open source it
