Hiya all

[Lilith Tannin]

I've been lurking in the shadows on here for a few weeks now , and, since I'm about to install a 3rd party launcher, I figured I should come out of the shadows and introduce myself. I traded my dreaded iPhone 4s in for an LG G3 about a year ago. I've always been a PC girl, so I was kicking myself for picking that darn iPhone within a week of having it.

I used the LG stock launcher for a few months, and then made the mistake of installing Go Launcher. It was lagging and throwing error messages, and my phone would restart when I tried to get my voicemail. That's when I did a Factory Reset. Now I'm stuck between Buzz Launcher and Nova Prime. I'm leaning towards Buzz because there's pages of people complaining about Prime, and it hasn't been updated since 12/06/2014. The free & limited version of Nova was updated 10/02/2015, but I don't want limited or a buggy out of date launcher. I'll let you all know how it went and what launcher I went with later ( it'll probably be Buzz until Nova Prime's devs get it updated and bug free) :'(

I wanted to thank you all, as well, the information I found in this forum helped me a whole lot!

Have a good night ~ Lilith

Welcome to Android Central! Lots of other good launchers to check out as well--I know some of the AC staff like Action Launcher.

Hello Lilith, welcome to the forums!

You don't need to worry about Nova Prime most recent update. The whole launcher is included in the free app with some options locked. Nova Prime is just a key (licence) to unlock the premium features, so it's normal that it doesn't get updates.

Thank you all for the warm welcome!

I installed Buzz last night. I've been playing around with it for a few hours now, and my final impression is meehh. I think I was in awe of all the awesome and beautiful pre-made themes I could access.But they need some serious work on organizing their Home packs (Themes). You can spend hours just looking for a theme and see the same tweaked theme 5 or six times: Just too unorganized for me. After reading Javier P's response, I'm uninstalling Buzz and going with Nova. I did look at Action Launcher for a bit but decided it wasn't for me.

Hi and welcome to AC

Welcome to AC. Launchers are just one of many ways Android allows you to be you. So many custom features and ways to make it different.
