Which Touchwiz or 3rd party launcher are you using on your Note 5?

I used Nova on my Note 4, but I'm liking Touchwiz on the 5. I wanted full S-Pen functionality and the Touchwiz calendar app. I'm really liking the Material Dark them .
 
I am using the stock Touch Wiz currently, but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to move the Apps shortcut in the dock to be the middle icon instead of the last one. I can move around, remove, change, etc. all of the others, just not Apps. Any ideas?

Not doable with TW

I'm on Nova Prime.

I like the gesture option. On mine I set it up to open S Finder when swiping up.

Action Launcher 3 pro with Muzei pulling wallpapers from reddit. Great setup.

Re: Touchwiz or 3rd party launcher

I haven't used a "normal" launcher in many years, just too much of an inefficient hassle to scroll through screens of icons. I use the Null launcher, which has zero icon, takes minimal space. Then I use the Smart Task Launcher app to have quick, multitasking access to 56 apps at once, accessible from any screen. I haven't exited an app in forever, simply switch from app to app.

Nova Prime. I've been a long time Nova user and have tried other launchers recently, but none feel as smooth as Nova. Plus I love using icon packs, so I'll never use the TW launcher (since the Samsung Theme store doesn't have icons I actually like)

And an issue about the Theme Store, even if there are good icons, it is only the main icons and not icons for other apps or even many things on a phone at start up.

Applying a theme and then using a launcher will change the messaging orange color but won't fix the no notification if the convo is still open issue though.

Nova Prime (and just added Material Dark theme. So much better now...could not stand the orange-ness of the messaging screen!)

I don't think you can. Samsung forces it to the lower right.

No allowed (taking cues from Apple I guess).

I installed Nova last night. This flavor of TW was much better than on my S4 but it still basically sucks in comparison with 3rd party launchers. No battery penalty either. Actually, today is even a little better than yesterday.

If I use Nova Launcher (Prime) is it compulsory to use something else (Telsa) for notifications? Sorry, new to this and confused...
 
Re: Touchwiz or 3rd party launcher

All,

Just wondering what launcher are you using on your Note 5? The stock Touchwiz or a 3rd party ie Nova or Action Launcher? I'm currently using Action launcher but actually considering going back to Touchwiz.
