From what I found, the short answer is no.

Long answer, summarized from a form post: the original dev got sick and launcher was left in limbo. Someone eventually contacted dev, the dev got better but "left android" and gave the person permission to open source it.

It is now avalible on GitHub, but does not seem to have an apk for download.

Is apple still blocking apps from telling users they can subscribe outside of the app store?

I.e A message on check out that says "You can save 30% if you subscribe directly the website. Apple charges a 30% processing fee for using Apple subscriptions, please just subscribe on the website."

Anyone know if any alternative supports app-drawer paging? Ive tried around six in the last few days, and none so far have. I'm open to trying other workflows but the "catch all" dock isn't it.

I like to keep my home screen with a few widgets and the dock - stuff I want to see often, but not open an app for like weather and calandar.

When I open the app drawer I see a page full of everything I use daily, then I can swipe to the other pages organized for work apps, games, and other crap.

Folders don't work as well because they usually sorted at the top of the screen and not quickly reached.

I've tried some of the minimislt scrolling launchers, but 1) I dont remember the exact name of every app and 2) for me, having to scroll through a list 100+ apps to get to "outlook"(for work) is not faster than having a page of my 20 most used apps.

They banned Rock-a-Bye Bivalve too?!

Thats where the piles of trash meme came from!

Edit, Wait that list "banned/controversial", so maybe not banned?

Nah, Klingons have honor. Whoever it is, they are the "perfectly clean $80,000 pickup that has carried less in it's life then my Mom's little sedan after a single Costco trip" drivers of space.

Verify! But what will all the "Cändy Crunch 7 Browser Edition with 12 Free Play Levels" players do?

Ads and crappy installers, all though that seems less common than it used to be. I can't say if that's a general trend or tunnel vision due to me not installing crapware.

Well that really sucks.

It sounds like the file permissions were changed/reset. As a not Motorola user, I have no clue any difference you may have, but I'll try to help.

Judging by your date of June 22, I'm guessing its been a month sence you got this, or was it just rolled out to you in the last few days?

Here a few potential spots to start, theres a high chance you've done them already, but I'll start here.

  • If you share a new folder to your device, does it ask permission to "access the folder". You may just have to redo all your syncs.

    • if you where previosuly syncing to the system "root" folder, you can not. (The folder with "Android" and "Pictures". You have to be in a sub-folder. (No idea how long this has been a thing, but will include anyways)).
  • Does sync thing (and your file apps) have any new required permissions, obviosuly ensure your running the latest version. It might require a reinstall to retrigger the permission diologues.

    • There is a backup option in the sync thing app, however I have never used it and thus have no idea how "complete" of backup it is.

Have you ever seen them use their turn signal? Starfleet pilots are the BMW drivers of space.
