yet another neat launcher

[Wbutchart]

And then there is Microsoft Launcher

Personally I think this is the best of all launchers, especially for those who use their phones to do 'stuff'. I am on the default just now as I wait for pie but I ms is the only launcher to really impress me.

The only negative is it doesn't have livetiles!! As a Windows phone user those were awesome.

But Squarehome does

I've tried it in the past but was really unimpressed at their attempt. Has it improved now?

I liked it...very visually appealing

Square Home is pretty slick. The closest one to actual windows phone that I have used on android. Very stable as well. So many diff ways to customize it.

Microsoft launcher has pulled me away from Nova Prime. Frequent updates, and integrates with calendar and tasks like a dream.

I almost jumped ship also. What held me back was no able to swipe up on an app and have it launch another app.

MS Launcher can do that as well (maybe updated to that feature since you last used it).

Smart Launcher 5 has improved a lot.

If I didn't use Google for all of my business stuff I'd give it a shot.

I've used Nova for years, but I'm going to jump on SL5 and give it a shot for a while.

How would using a third party launched compromise your business stuff?

I've been using Evie Launcher for quite some time. Maybe it's time to try out something different. May just try out SL5 or Squarehome. Pretty curious about those live tiles. Sounds like it has possibilities depending on battery drain.

You can’t go wrong with either of those choices. Square home will give your pixel the windows phone look and the live tiles work well with tons of customization. The latest version of smart launcher is rock solid. It is One of my go to Launcher’s and one of my favorites.
I didn’t notice any particular battery increases using either one.
Smart launcher also supports the Google feed to the left of the home screen which I like.

I played around with launcher 10 for a while, I guess because of nostalgic Windows Phone feelings At the moment I use the default Samsung launcher and don't feel I am missing something.
