Since a few folks seem unaware of this, I’m posting anew for visibility.

    I like to categorize my apps. In Nova I have them divided into Web / Media / Games / Tools / System and I can swipe between each page (horizontally) of them. I use quite a few apps to do a lot of things tho, so *shrug.

    I also really like the Sesame search integration, Lawnchairs adaption of Pixel Launchers is good. But there is style and behavior customization that Nova offers that Lawnchair doesn’t.

    I am pretty particular about making my phone just look and behave the way I want it, of course it changes over time as phones and apps get better but yeah… It’s largely why I preferred Android from the start and have stuck with it

      Agreed. Lawnchair was highly recommended, and when I tried it, I realized it’s recommended by people who were never actually utilizing Nova’s full potential. It’s basically just pixel launcher with more bells and whistles, and that’s not what I want. I use Nova because I wanted to make my own launcher that looked and worked exactly the way I wanted it to, not just be pixel launcher with some minor customizations.
