Hello 👋
Disclaimer I would switch to try grapheneos if I could currently my phone from Verizon apparently can not have it’s bootloader unlocked so…
I am looking for launcher suggestions that are maybe less intrusive if that’s possible. I mostly just want to get rid of the Google search at the bottom and the ‘at a glance’ at the top of the home page I can’t figure it out.
Edit: forgot my phone model ‘Pixel 8 Pro’
I wish it had folders in the app drawer
Yeah, it lacks a lot of features. Feeds don’t work either.
Not a fan of feeds and I don’t need them but I get its annoying for some people. I can’t find a good launcher with folders, up to date and with some customization
Most foss launchers I’ve tried are terrible. LawnChair is the only one that stood out the most.
I used https://apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid/index/apk/com.saggitt.omega before realizing it’s 2 years old. The only one I’ve found with folders
You mean folders as in sections?
- Games
- Social
- Productivity
Something like that?
Folders in the app drawer or app list (depends on how you call it)
I use Kvaesitso and I love it https://f-droid.org/fr/packages/de.mm20.launcher2.release/
If you want something completely different check out the KISS launcher or Kvaesito.
Switching the launcher will almost do ZERO for your privacy. Just to let you know.
Anyhow, you could check out the “F-Droid” App Store, which is populated with the most privacy respecting open source apps out there. It also has some launchers.
Or you could at least check apps on Exodus for trackers.
