Please read the "Planned Features" section before making new feature requests.

Quote:
I don't want to use GO Launcher, but might be forced too if its the only launcher with notifications in the dock icons, for missed calls, and unread texts.
We'll consider the notifications feature in the future.

Quote:
Can we get a gesture option of opening any application?
Thanks for the suggestion. We'll add it in a future version.

Quote:
+1 for having the option to lock/unlock desktop!
We also find this feature from ADW useful, so we have implemented it in Apex as well. Just a quick tip: long press on the "all apps" button in the middle of the dock for faster access to the lock/unlock desktop option.

Quote:
I'll probably try this when I can hide apps.
The option to hide apps in the drawer should be coming in a future update.

Quote:
App works great I like the infinite scrolling that was the only thing that really made my change from Nova. I would love to see gestures in the dock, cause I got very used to that with go launcher. Also I may not have seen it but does this offer custom dock backgrounds, cause I would love to see that too
Quote:
Is it possible to add a scrollable dock pages like Nova or Go launcher?
Dock customization options are planned.

Quote:
Does the launcher have removable search bar (in portrait at least)?
Is it fully compatible with 240dpi?
Yes, you may hide the persistent search bar from the settings.
We have tested Apex on a HDPI screen (with CM9), and it works just as expected.

Regarding usage @ 240dpi:
1. auto grid doesn't work: remains 4x4
2. in app drawer with grid 7x7, app icons overlap dock icons
3. in app drawer , the dock should be visible or not? it's visible atm and go back to 2 for possible bug
4. cannot edit number of icons in dock. In 240dpi you need more than 5 icons. I think this is not implemented yet as I cannot find a setting for this.
5. after a few unlocks of the screen the launcher has to redraw the apps in app drawer (pretty long too, like 2-3 seconds)

Now setting it up and it seems very flexible.

Noticeable differences from Nova so far: Gestures on home screen & app draw transparency.

I'm liking it a lot so far. Good launcher!

Very nice launcher. Overlapping widgets are really the only thing I'm missing from from this launcher to replace ADW EX. Great work.
