From 5 stars to 3.5 - I loved this launcher years ago. I got the premium version and love my setup with covers and folders. At some point though my backed up settings got messed up and many things would change to "name_not_found" and I couldn't find a way to fix it other than starting from scratch. Now for the past year my home screen freezes and I have to fight to get to "restart app" and then the issue is resolved... but I'm ready to switch. Happens 1 to 10 times a day.

This app was running great on Samsung phones. I've been using it for many years. Still love the app, but having an issue with Samsung Modes and Routines widget not loading properly. The widget appears on the home screen, but I can't select the routine I want on the widget. Currently running One UI 7 software, but worked fine on One UI 6. All other features are running. This is a great launcher with a lot of features. Should be 4 ⭐ but 3 1/2 ⭐ until widget is fixed.

Been using this launcher over 8 years and I've relied on it to make the use of my phone a pleasure. But like others, it had issues lately. Couldn't add most widgets and it crashed frequently. On 4/29/25, my phone updated to OneUI 7.0 and now I can add widgets again! we'll see if the crash issue continues but that hasn't been a serious issue for me.
