TouchWiz or Nova Prime

[anon(153966)]

I wish there was a paid version of 'Home Chooser Flow'. I detest ads...

Thank you Mr. Metropolitim

I love this app

Until they decide to take the limit off home screen icons and allow me to remove the search bar, Nova. I've been using it for years. Also look at Apex launcher - very similar.

I tried Apex Launcher a few years ago. But, Nova just seemed to offer more...

I am using stock samsung keyboard (awesome) and messenger.

wow, that's a horrible mess of a screen... looks like a kids phone, specially with the font, worst font ever created.
pink and yellow chaos..

(post not intended to be a personal attack, I hate that Font. it makes me puke when I see someone actually putting that crap on their phone)

There is 1 thing i find annoying on nova prime. Apps have to be added into folder from nova settings. (No drag and drop in app doc) and if i remove/delete an app out a folder on home screen , it gets removed out of that folder in app doc so now i have this lone app outside of the folders.

You can drag and drop apps into a folder and to the dock in Nova....

You can't drag and drop in the app drawer. But instead of going into nova settings, simply click the folder to expand and show the content and then long press the back capacitive key to bring up the menu options and add more apps into the folder.

Nova prime is a customization beast, yet easy to use.
One new feature I really like is the ability to standardize the size of the various icons, especially that android app icons have significant differences in shapes and sizes which make some icon packs (including the stock icons) look weird. With this feature the home screen looks really harmonious

I also forgot to add that the ability to set "Swipe Actions" to items on the home screen in Nova is also a big plus. For example, tapping the camera icon takes me to the camera app. Swiping up on the camera icon takes me to Quickpic. Tapping the phone takes me to the dialer, swiping up directly calls my wife. Taping What's App goes to What's App app. Swiping up on what's app sends her a text that I am leaving the office, etc.

OK are you guys not using Nova Prime? I can drag and drop from the app drawer directly to a folder. I'm also on the beta of Nova Prime. Maybe that's why?

This allllll day. Swiping on my phone button to dial my favorite contact is the BEST THING EVER. Going to steal your camera gestures though.

I've been using Prime for years. You CANNOT drag and drop apps from the app drawer to a folder in the app drawer. When you long press an app from the app drawer it brings up the home screen previews where you can then drop the app. Of course this means you CAN drop apps from the app drawer to a folder that's already situated on the home screen to begin with. It's been like this for years I highly doubt they changed anything in the recent Beta.

How do I go about assigning commands like that to individual apps? I see where I can set certain gestures to perform certain actions.... Like open a particular app. But how do I set where swiping on whatsapp messages particular contact our phone does certain thing. Thanks

Long press on an app, then select "edit."

Oh to a folder in the app drawer. Missed that part. When she said "doc" I thought she meant the actual "dock" not drawer.
