I’ve been just not updating Nova as I haven’t had a ton of time to research this, I really like the GUI, what are my privacy friendly/FOSS options for an android s21 5G?

Update: Went with Neo launcher. It’s got enough of the features that I’m willing to use it.

There are a few spots where padding can’t be removed that is obnoxious, FF search bar and dock are what I have noticed so far.

I also don’t like that I can’t continuosly scroll through my home screens.

    At one point, I would have said Simple Launcher, but Simple Mobile Tools is now adware.

    And unfortunately, the vast majority of alternative launchers are in the “minimalist” category, which means that there’s basically no way to organize your apps in a way that makes more than a handful of them convenient to access.

    I’d say, if you’ve got a Samsung phone and you’re not planning on turning it into something else, stick with the Samsung launcher.

    ETA: Fast Draw is very new and actually has categories, and it’s not the worst in terms of ease of use either. But if you like widgets, you get 0 or 1.
