[APP][2.1+] NEXT LAUNCHER by Go Dev Team

Installed and got a Window asking me to share it before I use it. I don't like to spam my friends, so I said no, and it closed. Tried again but this time said yes and texted it to myself. Now on a blank single home screen with no icons and an unresponsive menu button.

Edit: reinstalled and emailed to a friend and same issue. Just a blank screen with a blue wallpaper.

Running a nexus 7 with paranoid android, maybe the tablet ui is the problem?

The approach of most developers is to follow market trends. No developer will get anywhere if we always have to support "legacy" devices. This is evident when you look at whats happening with library support for arm 6 devices. I also use a now "legacy" phone, because this little phone has given me great mileage.
I started using Go Launcher Ex and that was it, I was sold. Till the v3 series came out and the launcher just became bloat, which would only run on better powered devices. One forum user actually told me to get a better device because I mentioned the memory issues in the newer versions.
This being said, it's also a good idea not to lose focus of your target market. Nova and Apex do very well because those launchers are fast and have enough features to switch on and off to run on any device. New and exciting features do make apps more popular, but if the Go team start building in ways for us to disable features we do not need at all and still give a nice smooth, fast, good looking user experience, they might be able to gain back their user base.

To those users who sit here and slander, use foul language and the like. Android is about choice, xda is about sharing with the community. If you don't like something, simply chose something else.

I for one am excited to see where the Go team will take this.

Uh ... Indeed, I had not thought of. I sent them an email as requested, I expect a response from them.

Can I know what happened with Go dev team ?

They tend to not support the apps outside of what is popular in China and there were concerns raised about privacy with the GO SMS app and keyboard. They refused to explain and stopped posting in the thread when called out. Now while I understand there are things that are OK in china when it comes to collecting personal data but that is not the case everywhere. Until they get back to you I am closing this thread. You have to have dev permission to make threads about their apps.

As for above post. XDA us about learning as much as sharing. The main focus is on development
