Launcher recommendation (lemmy.one)

submitted 1 year ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

I have tried alot of launchers but never really settled on one that meets all my needs. I have also read all the threads on reddit about FOSS launchers.

My preferences:

Multiple pages
Widgets on home screen
search function; app/contacts/ddg

The closest one yet is NeoLauncher, but the search function is not quite there I reckon.

Any suggestions?

I have tried it but it has no second page and no widgets on the home screen without a swipe, can you tell me how you did these two?

I am not sure what you mean by second page, but widgets can be added in home screen when toggle of "fill the entire screen height" from settings under clocks section.
