Pixel-2-Launcher apk & flashable zip from Google pixel 2 (either ftom Android Oreo 8.0 or Android Oreo 8.1 DP1)
Flashable zip will enable Google now integration & simple apk will not include Google now integration.

How to..
Flash Pixel-2-Launcher zip from TWRP (as system app)
Or install Pixel-2-Launcher apk as user app.

From attachments
Any of following
Pixel 2 Launcher from Android Oreo 8.0
Pixel 2 Launcher from Android Oreo 8.1 DP1

Note: All features are working only in android oreo based ROMs. I tested all files in Nougat & Oreo based custom ROMs. Some users are reporting that app is crashing in marshmallow based ROMs. You need to give location permission manually to get weather data as launcher is not asking location permission but by default all permission are set off.

How to uninstall?
Flash Pixel-2-launcher-uninstaller (file from attachment) using TWRP or other custom recovery.

Magisk module of original Pixel 2 launcher for systemless installation is available here:

Is there a way to uninstall it once flashed?

It's same as original. Use it only if original version can't be installed. Like in some custom ROMs. So if original version is working, no need to install modified one.

Reflash current ROM or
Go to system/priv-app & delete folder nexuslauncherprebuild. It'll get removed.

Thanks for letting me know.

I only asked because the notification dots were working in the Pixel Launcher 7.1.2.

I have a Nokia 8. I guess I will have to wait for Android O update to get this feature back.

I have the original installed on my current ROM (current unofficial DU for Galaxy Nexus). While I don't have the Oreo-style notifications, it's actually cleaner than the original Pixel Launcher. I will likely swap the flashable version to gain Google Now integration - and I definitely like the cleaner approach this launcher takes compared to the launcher from the original Pixel.

Not working for me sony xperia Z2 6.1mm
I flashed by recovery

xitopodo · Oct 13, 2017

Not working neither in my Blackview R6 (Mediatek chip) with Android 6.

When I open the launcher, it crashes.

But the idea it was good, so, ny other option is continue using the older version Pixel Launcher that works good in my device
