    Great launcher, I've been using it for years on many handsets.

    The ability to finely adjust just about every aspect of your homescreens and display settings is unmatched by any native launcher or any other 3rd party laincher IMHO.

      Microsoft launcher is good if you use Outlook (y).

      What does Nova have that Microsoft launcher doesnt?

      • Tacooo on 22/12/2019 - 15:46

    Nova Prime $0.99

    I need another app(s) $1.02 or more to get me up to $5 (for the Amex cashback of $3). Any must-have suggestions please?

          • pennypincher98 on 22/12/2019 - 20:37

            @WilhelmBargo: Interesting, I looked up PTV and got "2.1 stars from 778 reviews" and

            Melbourne has stuffed up its app to track buses so badly that it is completely useless.

            Meanwhile Tripview gets 4.8/5 from 148k reviews.
            Although yeah you are paying $6 or so just for the ability to save trips.

      Microsoft is a data collector and advertising business. By installing it's launcher you lose money.

    If you're after a more Pixel experience, Lawnchair 2 is considered to be the best Nova alternative. From a dev side it's not relying on old redundant code either.

    Being an Oxygen OS user I have no use for either. Still a good deal regardless.

    • hen dawg on 22/12/2019 - 14:39

    • whyisave on 22/12/2019 - 14:57
      +2

      Agree.

      After Samsung, Asus, Motorola phones
      and their launchers, Oxygen OS has been the first launcher
      (or phone - OnePlus),
      where I just thought everything was just fine.

      No need to replace the launcher or the OS (well, it is still fine-tuned a little bit to my liking :-) ).

  • ModBot on 22/12/2019 - 14:53

      The free version of Nova is going to be enough for me, but here's my chance to throw a tiny bit of money to a great app developer.

  • Hawi on 22/12/2019 - 15:04

    100% get this launcher. The customizability is endless.

  • Twocupteabag on 22/12/2019 - 15:24

    Great customisability.

  • telljoolz on 22/12/2019 - 15:27
    +1

    Besides all the other praise by other posters for Nova, another reason to get it for this good price is the ability to create folders.

    Folders on the home screen(s) AND folders in the app drawer. I'm surprised by how many launchers do not have this simple but useful feature. Folders allow you to organise your apps into groups. So you don't just have an endless scroll of apps in the app drawer.

    Other benefits:

    Stock-like feel.
    Huge customisability beyond icon sets. eg. short cuts to specific app functions.
    Constantly kept up to date.
    I love trying new launchers but always seem to come back to Nova.

  • Yamun121 on 22/12/2019 - 15:28

    Had this launcher for a couple months, and paid full price just cuz its that good.
    Been great past few years!
    Great find!

  • Click_It on 22/12/2019 - 15:29

    This is the one app I've always installed on all my phones right back to my very first smart phone. It's also the very first app I install. I think I paid full price for it but that's still a good price, you'd be nuts not to buy it at $0.99

  • pennypincher98 on 22/12/2019 - 15:35

    Unpopular opinion: I like HTC Sense Home.
    There's a useful "extreme power saving" mode (that is basically only messages/email/calendar etc) I haven't seen anywhere else.
    Also in general, I just am a fan of the layouts and customisable floating app space. Auto Themes are nice too.

    Does anyone know if there's a Nova alternative like it?

    • Tacooo on 22/12/2019 - 15:47
      +1

      Launchers don't control your power settings.

      • pennypincher98 on 22/12/2019 - 18:20

        Hmmm that's a shame. Don't want to have to root just for that. May end up buying a HTC just for that purpose aha.

  • Windows98 on 22/12/2019 - 15:42

    If you're on Android 10 you lose the new gesture navigation when using 3rd party launchers
    Which means you also won't get the new assistant style when it's released.

    Shame. I loved Action launcher. But can't do without the gesture navigation.

    • thingling on 22/12/2019 - 15:58
      +1

      Not sure about other phones, but Oxygen OS 10 (my OnePlus 7T) with a third party launcher, still works with the OS built-in gesture navigation.

      Edit: I just installed Nova and got the warning about the above (however it still worked). Have used gesture navigation on a Pixel and it is slightly different to Oxygen, so there is obviously a difference to the stock Android one.

    • MitchyD1989 on 22/12/2019 - 18:29

      Action Launcher just recently released a beta update that supports the Androind 10 gestures.

  • ExtraSalt on 22/12/2019 - 15:47

    Now ya'll just have to get KLWP. Kustom apps and Nova Prime are the perfect pairing imo

  • John Kimble on 22/12/2019 - 16:33

    Which of the prime/advanced features do you recommend?

  • mooreshady on 22/12/2019 - 16:36

    This nova is not good enough. I reckon yandex is a better one.

  • Shwayne on 22/12/2019 - 17:08

    Currently has serious issues with Android 10 gestures / app switcher fyi, there's no certainty on whether or not Nova Launcher is going to be able to fix it either.

    • ExtraSalt on 22/12/2019 - 17:27

      That's am Android 10 issue mate… All 3rd party launchers are in the same boat

    Undoubtedly the best launcher since day 1 till date. Period. I paid the full price when I bought Nova launcher years ago and it's still worth it.

  • bigredaus on 22/12/2019 - 17:24

    might be a silly question but is it limited to the device or the user? i.e. more than one device?

    • ExtraSalt on 22/12/2019 - 17:28

      If you are apart of a family plan you can share the purchase between all users of that's what you are asking

      • bigredaus on 22/12/2019 - 17:36

        when i go to check out it has a drop down choice for the phone so i was wondering if its locked to one phone or if you can download on your phone now and maybe if you get a new one.

        • ExtraSalt on 22/12/2019 - 17:38

          Oh the license status with your account. I moved from s8 to s10+ no issues. Imported my old settings without an issue

      Haha…only for $0.99 though…not $5.99?

  • EyyBanane on 22/12/2019 - 21:56

    I did purchase Nova ~6 years ago and was very happy with it. However, I switched to iOS after a while. When I come back now to use my work-provided Android phone, there is one major issue that I can see. Samsung stock launcher has a better UI to segregate the personal and work profiles, however Nova has not caught up with it yet. I can see many posts in the community requesting Nova to add this feature, but they have not bothered according to the replies. Any one knows, if this is possible in Nova launcher?

    • crackhead on 25/12/2019 - 11:56

      absolutely

      • EyyBanane on 30/12/2019 - 19:39

        Care to share?

  • Kiro on 22/12/2019 - 22:25

    The only issue I have with third party launchers is the customer widgets from manufacturers don't always work on them.

    I have got nova prime and I do always like this over other third party launchers.

  • myusername on 23/12/2019 - 07:08

    great launcher been installed for years now, never had issues

  • ippybear on 23/12/2019 - 07:18

    I also purchased it years ago. Its absolutely brilliant. It just about completely takes over from those awful bloated screens and junk that some manufacturers insist on putting on their phones. A really really great addition to your phone.

  • AngusD on 23/12/2019 - 08:16

    Wow, I'm actually surprised people still use launchers. I would imagine less and less use them as stock ui in most phones is vastly improved.

    I remember using go launcher ex. That was the goods.

    How is nova launcher when it comes to resource utilisation? Do you notice more of a battery drain or no real difference?

    • profaner on 23/12/2019 - 19:10

      It about 10% worse for me. So i switched back. I am using Accubattery to monitor the difference.

      No real difference for me

      • TigerWoops on 23/12/2019 - 14:20

        When I start the app all icons are gone and too many things to do. I gave up.

        • Typical16-bitEnjoyer on 24/12/2019 - 12:10

          Sounds like a common PEBKAC error but involving your phone.

  • Pneen on 28/12/2019 - 00:57

    I bought it! I've always used Nova and I really like it! Honestly, I was surprised that pretty much all of the functionality is available for free and that really only notification badges and folders in the app drawer are available in Prime.
