Clauncher vs Rootless Pixel Launcher
Side-by-side comparison of two open source alternatives
Clauncher
Yet another Olauncher Fork where apps are invisible by default, you only need to type which apps you want to open. It should reduce your screen time from opening apps you didn't plan on opening. Would recommend using a grey or black wallpaper (for immersion?, idk just recommending) FEATURES * No ads * FOSS forever * Clean, fast and lightweight HOW TO USE * Swipe up to see all the apps and quick search * Swipe down for notification drawer * Long press home apps to change them * Important: Long press on empty space to open settings Once you open the settings, you'll see all the available options.
Rootless Pixel Launcher
Pixel Launcher is a close to AOSP launcher that only changes the necessary code to allow for small extensions and backporting to older Android versions. If you want a more feature packed launcher use Nova, Action or Lawnchair. Pixel Launcher is focused on simplicity and rock solid stability. Features include: * Search bar at the bottom * Wallpaper based theme selection * Regular Icon Packs * Adaptive Icon Packs, such as my Google Icons * Icon Shape selection on Android 8.0 For Pixel users, there's also a Magisk version.
