Pie Gestures and Nova Launcher....

[KillerQ]

Even with the workarounds, the 'most common' app icons don't seem to show with any gestures outside of the stock Launcher. Oh well...

 

[Captivational]

I enabled the pie gestures and I have Nova Launcher running. While it works, one thing that I noticed is that the second swipe of the "pill" does not bring up the app drawer. Of course I can enable a Nova Launcher gesture to show the app drawer by swiping up on the main screen which I currently have configured. Another thing I noticed is that the back arrow on the left side of where the buttons normally are (or...where the buttons were) is always enabled and does not disappear in the manner it is supposed to work.

I did re-enable the pixel launcher as an experiment and found that everything works as described.

I am just curious if others have found this to be the case. perhaps there will be an update to Nova Launcher to address the issue or perhaps there is a setting that I missed to have the pie gestures and back button work with Nova Launcher as it does for Pixel launcher. it's not a big deal of course just posting an observation.

Same exact issues - 2nd swipe up doesn't produce the app tray and the back arrow is persistent even on the home screen. No Nova Launcher updates are available - currently running Nova Launcher 5.5.4

Yeah it kinda of sucks. I went back to buttons. Couldn't take it.

I like buttons as well..... won't be changing unless I'm forced to ;-)

How do you access recents with the pill in Pie and using Nova Prime? I can't figure out how to change back to the three buttons in Nova either.

I have Nova Prime, I access recents by swiping up on the pill.

To go back to the default buttons:
- Go to Settings
- System
- Gestures
- Tap Swipe up on home button
- Toggle the On/Off button to Off
