Best Rated Simple Launcher?

[cristianocr7]

Looking for a simple launcher that will have themes integrated. Is there one better than the other that is rated best?
Would like unread counts notifier. I cannot seem to get any unread counts on any of the launcher I have tried to work? Rather than spending all my time doing all the work (I do not have the time), looking for one's I can download to work out of the box.

Most of the launchers I can think of need an extra plugin for the unread notifications, or the 'Pro' version needs to be purchased. Nova works quite well, and there is an unread plugin available.

No it not free. You have to buy the prime version of Nova to get the plug in

The plug in is Tesla Unread and it's free but you need the Nova Prime version to run it. It's a great plug in and you can custom size, colour and position.

I am gathering that no matter what, you need to buy the prime version or the paid versions of the launcher to get the unread count badge notifications?

Thoughts on KK launcher?

The Prime version of Nova is well worth the minimal price charged. It's fast, irrevocably stable (at least it seems that way), highly customizable, supports gestures, icon packs, multiple different layout backups, and more.

It's just a great launcher.

I've heard so many good reviews on Nova.

1) Can you get the icons to look like Lollipop?
2) If you did not choose Nova, what would you choose?

Most icon packs are made with Nova in mind so if you search for Lollipop icon packs in the Play store you'll likely find what you like. If I couldn't have Nova I'd fall back to Apex Pro. It's very similar but, to me, not quite as prime (pardon the pun) as Nova Prime.

Take a look at this pack. Moonshine.

Nova Prime is simply a rock solid, never miss a beat, launcher.

Customizable to your heart's content.

Simplistically simple if that is the way you want it.

I love the fact that it will import your OEM home pages including folders.
Once that is done, it will create a backup of your home pages. TouchWiz just leaves you hanging in the wind for home page backups.
