If I use a thrid party launcher....

I know the S-Pen is still functional with most things... but does the Air Command Menu still work when you hit the button? Haven't heard anything about that.

The launcher should allow those actions to take place. The worst that happens is they are blocked, and you either have to run stock, or try another launcher.

The spec functions along with the menu. On my Note 3 I ran Nova Launcher and was able to use it without any issues.

I'm still running stock Launcher on my Note 4 but I'm sure it'll be fine.
