  • Neo-Launcher

    Neo-Launcher

  • Just switched to Neo Launcher today and I'm very impressed so far. There's a few odd glitches here and there but nothing that was a deal breaker. It feels like Pear Launcher with a modern design based on Material You. But there's also little touches such as an outline of where your icon is going to be placed on the desktop and a much longer delay before apps are rearranged which makes folder creation so much easier that I really appreciate. Looking forward to where this app goes, hopefully it's a viable alternative to the rewrite of Launchair since that is mired in controversy now.

  • Kvaesitso

    A search-focused Android launcher

  • I've been using Smart Launcher for a while and I think it does pretty well for me. I'm also keeping a close eye on a new FOSS launcher called Kvæsisto, which is still early but very promising.

  • Lawnchair

    Discontinued No clever tagline needed

  • I tried few launchers to find some (preferably privacy friendly) replacement. Namely: - KISS launcher F-droid - Ruthless launcher Play store - Lawnchair 12.1.0 Alpha 3 pre-realese Github - Neo Launcher 0.9.0 Github

  • tracker-control-android

    TrackerControl Android: monitor and control trackers and ads.

  • I was refering to https://trackercontrol.org/ app as it performs it's own tracker lib detections (scanning installed apk) - aside from traffic categorization and blocking ofc.

NOTE: The number of mentions on this list indicates mentions on common posts plus user suggested alternatives. Hence, a higher number means a more popular project.
