I’m a little worried about Niagara, since they have a sponsored result for every time I’ve searched for another launcher. Is it a paid launcher? Usually the heavily advertised stuff I see on the play store has all kinds of issues.
I’ve no idea why it has sponsored search results, but I’m sure that the dev is legit.
It uses a free for most features/pro for extras model, but it’s slightly different from the usual which you can read about on their medium blog here.
There’s no ads and no tracking/scraping for profit. And it’s genuinely different to use than anything else I’ve seen, but in a very good way. Like all launchers it takes some time and effort to set up but I’ve found it easy to use straight away.
Try it, you can always uninstall if you don’t like it. You can get pro for a seven day free trial but you don’t need it to start testing. I used it for a few hours and tried pro and I’m almost certainly going to pay to keep it.
+1 for Niagara
Installed it yesterday and so far so good. I used Nova for so long I resisted change, but now I’m free. Thank you Lemmy, for showing me the way.

I used Niagara back in the Cyanogen days. I guess it’s time to give it another shot. Thanks for the tip. Now, to retrain my old brain.
Retraining keeps the brain young, my friend!
Unless you’re retraining to go back to Windows from Linux, then the brain starts farthing incessantly 🤣🤣
I believe they have Google Analytics in their privacy policy. I made the compromise a while ago, it is so good I am willing to concede that.
