Google now launcher or Nexus launcher

Poll : how many are using which launcher? I love the style design of the new dock bar, and the folder look. Thanks for helping out.

I use the Nexus launcher.

Nexus Launcher? I was not aware that there is such a thing.

Did you mean Nova Launcher?

Yup yup, check it out. Download the new Google Nexus launcher APK here - Android Authority

Cool, but I'll wait for the Play Store download.

I use the Nexus launcher.

Like I said, I love the new look of the dock bar, and the folders. It looks very clean.

Nova Launcher has had that folder look available for quite a while now.

I like stock Google or Nexus things though. Lol what can I say, I'm a fanatic.

Nexus launcher is really nice... But I miss swipe left for now.

Touché, me too as well but I just have the Google now cards widget on my main home screen which does help. Like I said, the style of the folders, and the near invisible app drawer are really nice. Day and date are a waste of space in the home screen, by I also did read that the actual official release of the launcher, it's supposed to be a shortcut, or widget for the calendar. Hopefully that becomes true.

I still use Nova too. I switch back and forth.

I'm starting to look at nova launcher settings and how to mimic the Nexus launcher now.

My main gripe with the google now launcher was the inability to change the size of the darn icons. This is my only reason to use Nova (and has been since my Nexus 5). Is there an option to make the app icons smaller in the new nexus launcher without rooting?

 

[eric002]

No, I don't believe there is. As for Nova launcher, I looked at the setup for it online last night to make it look like the Nexus launcher, it's very complicated. For now, I'm just going to stick with the Nexus launcher.

Here's a Video but I think you need a root for this

With the Nexus launcher, how many icons can you fit vertically? Is it still 5, or do you lose one?

I know that in the new dock bar, you can now fit 5 apps which is really nice!
