MODERATORS
Genuine question from someone with Nova launcher since like Android 6: do these alternatives have all the same features?
No, but as someone who just dumped Nova after realising I've been given some company free reign of my device (because I've had it so long) I feel Neo is closer to being a more comparable feature set... though still not as much as Nova
Thanks for the recommendation. I'll have to check it out after work
Agreed, I haven't been able to find one launcher that has all the features that Nova has. Neo is close, but still doesn't have swipe on dock icons, you have to choose either tabs or folders in the app drawer, you can't do both like you can in Nova.
