I’m very familiar with different launchers, as I used Nova Launcher for quite some time on my old OnePlus phones. But when I made the switch to a Pixel, I enjoyed the default Pixel Launcher so much that going back to Nova didn’t even cross my mind.

However, I eventually got tired of it and wanted to try out something new. I wanted to get away from the classic grid layout present on most Android phones with their large and colorful icons. I wanted something cleaner. Something simpler. Something designed to encourage intentional phone use instead of endless scrolling. I found it, and I love it so much that I decided to ditch Pixel’s default launcher altogether.
