Used Nova Launcher Prime, Lawnchair V2 for a long time but switch to Ruthless Launcher around 4 months ago and never looked back since then. It is light weight and has almost all the required features and most importantly free of cost. Those who haven't tried it, must try... It is just 👌

@karaxxii Жыл бұрын

I have been a Niagra user since early this year, and I love how minimalistic and organized it is. I do not like a lot of widgets on my homescreen, and I only need the ones that I use frequently, so this is the best launcher for me. I tried going back to Nova, but nah. I am so used to this simple launcher now.

@abhik1059 2 жыл бұрын

I've got almost all launchers premium versions like Nova, Action, Niagra, Smart etc. But in the end, I get back to Nova as primary home screen setup just because of its gestures & ability to mold perfectly into any set-up. Although Niagra is one of a kind & best looking one of the lot👍

It's now April 2022, almost a year after this vid was released. Full disclosure, I'm a die -hard Niagara fan. Since this video, Niagara has made even more advances in folders, streamlined customization features, implemented Android 12 style theming, widget implementation, and the list goes on. The developers are very engaged with the user community and are constantly fine tuning the launcher and working on new features, while at the same time keeping the launcher true to it's minimalist roots. I recently tried to go back to a more typical "Android style" launcher (I think it was Lawn chair), but setting it up from scratch just took too damn long. Niagara is, hands down, the easiest launcher to set up I have ever used. Thanks for the video!

I love Niagara all the way! Because of it's simplicity and minimalist look. Everything I want is just in front of my eyes when I unlock my phone. And if I want to use any specific app I just tap on the Alphabets and it shows all the apps starting with that letter. I don't prefer nova because it's not for those people who tend to mess up their home screens with kwgt and klwp, it's quite a hassle for a new user. I purchased Niagara pro , and it's worth every penny here in India but in other countries like USA, it's expensive yes. Niagara ftw!

Niagara still cannot backup and restore settings. They used to make them work thru Google sync or something. But that service blocked backups over 25Gb which Niagara goes over. And their their space for notification is limited which kinda sucks as I don't like their stacking method they're using at the moment.
