Apps that I'm Adding and Deleting because of my new G-Nex

[Lanhoj]

I highly recommend Apex Launcher as an alternative to Nova Launcher. Has more features than Nova Prime and is free.

Nova launcher updated today adding a bunch of nice stuff.

I've read that Apex is set to soon release a paid version too so they'll likely make some of the currently free features into paid.

I'm running a beta version of Apex that requires a key (which is free for now), and it indicates that it will eventually have a paid version. The option in this beta that I really like is the ability to create custom groups in the app drawer. That was one thing I missed about my Droid X (though maybe the only thing). It also gives you the ability to merge app folders on the home screens by dragging and dropping them on top of each other; this may not be first launcher to offer this but it's the first I've seen.

That does sound pretty cool

I didn't know that. I don't think it was an option when I was using Nova before I switched to Apex. Thanks.

Gekko if you just want to get rid of the Google search bar uninstall that app. Thats how I got it off my home screen.

Wait...if you uninstall the Google search...it gets rid of the bar?

Disabling it does the same thing.

no that still leaves an unusable dead space where the bar was.
