Most powerful launcher in existence. No other launcher comes close when it comes to customization. Been using it for years now, and I will probably using it for many more.

Abandonware. This is probably the most customisable launcher ever released, but now it's getting close to three years (and three Android versions) without a single update. Time to move on…

Walter S.

The dev has made this app unintuitive to use. Im coming from Nova launcher and nothing makes sense.

K PAD IRIG

It's too bad it hasn't been updated in a few years. Was a fantastic launcher.

Brian C.

Works great except on lg velvet, long-hold doesn't bring up menu to customize a launcher. Love being able to backup launcher on one device, restore it on another

Vel Togomob

Best launcher, but has been abandoned for years and because of that it is not working well anymore. Very, very sad. The Dev could perhaps have released the source, maybe someone could have maintained it... Always sad when this happens, of course.

Marcus Widerberg

Dead project, would buy again for a updated version.

I Hella dig it but maybe instead of videos put interactive tutorials on it because I'm a Hans on learner and the video don't do anything for me playi g around to see what can go where is confusing as none other but I love it

Blaze Weil

This was a very useful piece of software back in the day, but it's kinda fallen through the cracks. It really just needs some maintenance and modernization.

Update the app, or it would be nice if you sell it to someone who wish to continue development, or make it open source so that the fanbase can contribute and continue using such an awesome launcher. System updates messed up the layouts and brought frequent crashes. To meet up with the latest Android, code should be modified preserving the usability and features. Anyhow I'm using the launcher by updating my scripts and layout size, compromising fullscreen&some other part with low/no-crash.
