@jeswinjv I added Next Launcher 3D in Donate Version .. Will inform u when it will be live on PlayStore :)

--------------
update:

just like Apex, its working flawlessly :good:

btw i feel it's not as sensitive as google now, i mean i need to talk "wake up" very close to the mic to make it work.
Also its working inside the drawer too
but over all, its good ;)

u don't need to hold close ... i'll post a video in which u can see it works well from few distance as well :)
It might be the case that , after u speak "wake up" once , it needs 08-1.00 second in being ready for listening again..

will be possible to change hotword in "ok, google now" in the next version?
I will try to add that in future release :)

I can add more languages but that will increase the size of apk too much .. & u can test in Free version on apex or Nova ,
if it works then Surely it will work on Touchwiz , & if not , i'll refund u ..
It will work as detecting of hot word is independent from ROMs & all ... :)
