Hi everyone, can someone tell me what changed overnight for my phone. My app drawer now scrolls down instead of flipping through pages. And at the top of the page seems to be a "most used" section.
Thanks
PS. I have been on LMY48MM for the past month or so
 
This happened with the most recent Google App update. This is the way the app drawer in the Google Now Launcher will be.
 
I love that change, the only thing I don't like much is the app suggestions in the upper row, I disabled it.

I just got the change. Sucks! I've not used a third party launcher in a long time. Looks like more I'll go back to Nova.

What you are seeing is the 6.0 Google launcher. Anyone running the M Preview has seen this scroll behavior for a while now. To each, their own, but I prefer the vertical, continuously scroll rather than the page-based one from 5.X.

Granted, I've started to just use the search bar to launch apps most of the time... hit search, type in the first couple of letters and go from there.
 
I like the new app drawer showing 4 most recently used apps and the ability to search for apps to launch. This is actually something I missed from BlackBerry 10 (before they messed it up with 10.3.x).
