    Thanks! Don't need it but bought anyway

  • KoNpHuSeD on 08/12/2015 - 06:59

    I just signed up to Google Opinion Rewards in the hopes of getting this for "free"…
    If you're looking for a free alternative launcher I highly recommend Solo Launcher.

      …or the free version of Nova is also excellent.

    • KoNpHuSeD on 14/12/2015 - 06:32

    If you have never used a launcher before, give this a go. Takes about an hour to set up but totally worth it because of the increased functionality and efficiency of your phone usage.
    I also recommend DCikonZ as a theme and wallpaper manager. Free, smooth and beautiful.

    • CyberMurning on 08/12/2015 - 08:33

      My problem with themes for Android is the icons need to be made for each one, if you happen to install one rare app, it will use default theme and not match with others and kind of ruin the theme.

      is there any theme app that change the whole system globally for example to Gray colours, etc?

      • soggyandugly on 08/12/2015 - 09:32
        +2

        Icon packs usually come with a bunch of extra icons anyway. If it happens to be a rare app with no dedicated icon, you can still change the icon individually. (If youre using nova launcher), If you long press on an app on your home screen and then tap edit it will let you rename and change the icon. Tap on the icon square thing and then you can choose whatever icon you want.

        • 7hours 44min ago on 08/12/2015 - 10:02
          +1

          Correct. DCikonZ has a magnitude of generic icons you can choose from if your app does not have one specifically made for it. It defaults to an image of the original app's icon on top of a slate/button that looks similar to the other icons. Honestly, give it a go, it's pretty good (and free with no ads or permissions needed).

      • bbourizk on 08/12/2015 - 10:40

        You can always make your own icons for missing apps. Especially apps that aren't popular or for your specific needs.

        Install themex and extract the png file.
        I search for the icons in Google for the app then a two minute job in Photoshop and you have a perfect icon.

    • brownhux on 08/12/2015 - 17:01

      Shouldn't take an hour to set up a launcher.

      • dazweeja on 08/12/2015 - 17:24

        Obviously, it depends on what you want to do with it. It could take 30 seconds or it could take an hour. I have a lot of apps which I put in specific folders and that does take a while to do the first time (after that you can backup and import your layouts). Same with re-creating widgets.

      • 7hours 44min ago on 08/12/2015 - 17:58

        When you take in to account a theme, wallpaper, swipe commands, look and feel, layouts, animations, and other integrations/customisations one hour is reasonable.

        • brownhux on 08/12/2015 - 18:19

          I respect and see what you're saying. But having done most of that when I set up Nova Launcher Prime it took 20 minutes max. Just my anecdotal experience though.

  • droodle on 08/12/2015 - 07:29

    Any good for a oneplus 2?

    • [Deactivated] on 08/12/2015 - 08:43

      It works on any device.

      My question is, why would you want it…

        why wouldn't you want it…

          I got it..

        • [Deactivated] on 08/12/2015 - 13:07

          Haha…

          No seriously though, I've never thought, "hmm, my icon size is too small, I think I'll buy a launcher to fix this…"

          Having said that,I think Nova Launcher is losing sales, thus this sale…

        • CodeXD on 08/12/2015 - 13:35

          @inose:
          Nova Launcher is so much more tho. Each brand applies their own ui to their android phone launchers…snd typically, they're terrible and slow. Nova fixes that for you with a clean, pretty much stock launcher with all the customisation to personalise it to your liking.

        • [Deactivated] on 08/12/2015 - 15:06

          @CodeXD:

          I disagree with your claim that typical default launchers are "terrible and slow"… Especially in Kony 2015.

          … Which is why I don't see a real need for it. :)

          (But for 20c, might as well… :/ )

        • CodeXD on 08/12/2015 - 15:51

          @inose:

          Stop trying to make Kony 2015 a thing, it's not going to happen

        • peterpaoliello on 08/12/2015 - 17:07

          I think it depends what skin you have now, i loath TouchWiz so i would if i had a Samsung. My Sony is near pure Android so i'll stick with that for myself.

  • goevencheaper on 08/12/2015 - 07:44

    Got it, not sure if it is better than default laucher on Sony phones.

    • [Deactivated] on 08/12/2015 - 08:42
      +4

      To me, default launchers are good enough these days, including Sony's and Samsung's, especially the later ones.

      I don't feel like I need an external launcher anymore, unless you can't hide apps. It's not kony 2012.

      • spoonmugen on 08/12/2015 - 11:17
        +1

        Samsung still cant change individual icons/re-size etc…

        nova is still king of launchers

        this + dashclock = win
        bought at $4.99 full price and still money well spent

        • [Deactivated] on 08/12/2015 - 13:02

          Yeah… Ok. (Samsungs got their theme store but whatever)

          Why would I want to resize an icon? I don't.

          That's what I'm saying. I'm claiming that most people don't need, nor ever had the want to have this much of customisation.

          Most default launchers just "work" lol

    • get-innocuous on 08/12/2015 - 13:13

      If there's anything you've ever thought you'd like to tweak about the stock launcher, chances are Nova has that option somewhere. I only use it over Sony's because it allows for a bigger icon grid and no labels.

      • goevencheaper on 09/12/2015 - 08:08

        Used Nova on my sony phone for 1 day, the gesture does make some difference. At least save one press on the power botton when lock the screen.

  • Brick50 on 08/12/2015 - 07:53

    Bought this for $5 a week or so ago

  • inthemoney114 on 08/12/2015 - 08:04

    If you want a free launcher, I recommend Yahoo Aviate Launcher.

  • misu p on 08/12/2015 - 08:05

    Thank you, I was considering buying it anyway.

  • googoogaga on 08/12/2015 - 08:09

    could anyone comment as to which is the better launcher between this and the Smart launcher from this deal;

    • pyramid on 08/12/2015 - 08:14

      Depends on personal choice. I like nova cause it allows you to hide apps easily, whereas in smart launcher you need to click each app icon and need to hide it manually. But i guess Smart is bit faster than nova..but i always go back to Nova…

    • gentlecrack on 08/12/2015 - 12:32

      I bought Nova earlier at full price and got a refund after I found out that it is slower than Smart Launcher Pro in my Note Edge.

      However, it's well worth a shot at .20c.

  • CyberMurning on 08/12/2015 - 08:26

    When you change or upgrade mobile phone, reinstall Nova, restore all the settings, do you feel you don't really change your mobile after all?

      I agree with you there. I can't look past Action Launcher 3. It's the best I've used and I've tried a lot.

  • CLoSeR on 08/12/2015 - 08:49

    • JohnnyP on 08/12/2015 - 11:36

      I have the google now launcher and quite enjoy the features it provides by 'swiping left'

      That being said Nova is the launcher of choice in the rest of this IT department. I have tried it and it is a superior launcher but doesnt provide the google now features I like. For 20c might as well give it a go and if google now becomes crap at least you have already purchased it (presumably using the Google Opinions money)

      • brotherfranciz on 09/12/2015 - 01:13

        Thanks. :)

        Coming from a Galaxy Nexus to a LG G4, I just wanted to be cautious about installing bloat (i.e. crap that I don't need). Having read a few reviews and the comments here, Nova Launcher seems like a useful app to spend my Opinion money on!

  • [Deactivated] on 08/12/2015 - 09:29

    • d3ft on 08/12/2015 - 12:53

      It will have negligible impact on battery, it's just a launcher.

    • fryandlaurie on 08/12/2015 - 14:58

      Launchers mostly affect RAM and not the battery (processing). The lightest launchers include Smart Launcher and Lightning Launcher.

  • CVonC on 08/12/2015 - 13:22

    I've always used Go Launcher.. was even better when Prime was free. But then they fk'd shit up in the Z version. Downgraded back to 5.15 and haven't updated since.

    Anyway had 90c google credit after the survey thing during the PowerAmp freebie. Might as well get this for free.

  • KBZ on 08/12/2015 - 13:25

    This launcher is great to use, only gripe I have is you have to go to the app settings to put apps into folders unlike drag and drop in standard.

    • jzdhgkd on 08/12/2015 - 16:36

      Do you mean within the app drawer? Because you can definitely drag and drop to create folders on the home screen.

      • KBZ on 08/12/2015 - 16:56

        in the app drawer.

    • iridiumstem on 08/12/2015 - 21:19

      I know this is slightly more complex than on homescreen, but you could go to "Edit App" by holding the icon and dragging it to "Edit" and put the apps in folder on app drawers (it's marginally faster than doing it via settings, I found).

  • Max Power on 08/12/2015 - 13:56

    I paid $5.99 for it last night, after not finding any past discounts on OzBargain.
    I'm a little disappointed I missed the discount, but still happy to support the devs. Especially since it's improved the performance of my Nexus 7 over the stock launcher.
