Launchers that are worth a shot

[Sadman Khan]

Hi guys! I really love the fact that android can be modded so easily...well there are hundreds of launchers in the play store! Any suggestions? This will help anyone who is interested in replacing their launcher

3 Most well known, should get you started:

1 - Nova Launcher - Very nice, fast and stable. Constant updates and has a Free a Prime Available.

NOVA LINK

2 - Apex Launcher - Again, fast and stable, has a Tablet UI mode which may be of use to some (Free and Paid Available)

APEX LINK

3 - ADW Launcher - Fast, Stable (don't know much about ADW) (Free and Paid Available)

ADW LINK

All 3 of these accept Themes, and Apex/Nova often come with the same themes, so in play Store you'll See: Theme Name Apex/Nova

Sometimes ADW is usable too.

Less popular (perhaps still well known):

1 - Lightning Launcher - Very nice launcher, a little different to the rest with some nice features. (Not used myself)

LIGHTNING LINK

2 - GoLauncher - VERY WELL KNOWN (MOST DOWNLOADED LAUNCHER), Been around for quite some time, however I heard security issues with GoLauncher and other Go Products.

GO LAUNCHER LINK

3 - Holo Launcher - Don't know anything about it just know it exists.

HOLO LINK

Hope this helps.

For me Action Launcher is the best, Apex Launcher being the 2nd choice, I've tried all the "best" launchers and these are my absolute favourites

I think I never experienced lag on my device with those launchers, not noticeable. But Nova Launcher is very good too, I used it before but I remember that there was something missing in there that I wanted, forgot what it was now

I swear by SSlauncher.
I takes some time to set it up but the options are endless and you are really only limited by your own creativity.
I haven't found anything you can't do and it's really really customizable.

 

[Sadman Khan]

Will try it!
