ADW Launcher 2, beyond tweaking your android desktop

You may think the original and best launcher of all time has not been updated, because people assume that time is a strict progression of cause to effect, but *actually* from a non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint, it’s more like we released this update 3 years ago and you didn’t realize. Don’t worry, we understand not everyone has…1.21 gigawatts!! to spend.Having said this, we’ve been reading a lot about Google recommendations on abusing app options and settings, and we’ve talked a lot about it. But as the ability to speak does not make us intelligent we’ve made all the opposite. You know, without freedom of choice there is no creativity. The Launcher bores.You may also think “I find your excess of settings disturbing” and we don’t blame you! It’s a totally normal reaction. I guess you guys aren’t ready for that yet. But your kids are gonna love it. In the end, the possibility of configuring it to your likeness is approximately 3720 to 1, what makes it the best launcher because maths never lie.And yeah, we have screens, ¿and icons? for sure, ahh and we have widgets too, what more?, I mean what else?, in fact, you can make your own. And if you prefer getting everything pre-made, use themes! Or widget and template packs! ¿Is your device’s desktop boring? Change it again Sam. Your style, your rules, Do. Or do not, there’s a setting for it, tweak it, change it, shaken, not stirred.And remember, “There’s no such thing as ‘the unknown,’ only options inside ADW Settings”¿Are you gonna miss it?*Endless Features*Most of the application have been reprogrammed and redesigned from scratch. Also we have added a lot of new features. Here are some of them:* Support for Android 7.1 launcher shortcuts (limited support on older versions down to 5.x)* Added new icons effects section. You can choose image filters and compositions. Awesome!!!* Dynamic UI coloring using wallpaper colors.* New way to manage screens. Hold down an empty area of the desktop.* New way to add widgets and shortcuts.* New way to change the wallpaper, lock/unlock the desktop or access settings. Hold down an empty area of the desktop and choose the option.* Added fast scroll app drawer style.* Added indexed fast scroll app drawer style.* Added some desktop transitions.* Added new section to configure icon badges.* Added a visual mode to configure desktop, icon appearance, folder appearance, and app drawer options.* Added option to change the top panel/widget.* Added option to change the content type of bottom panel (dock/widget).* Added new wrap folder mode to folders. This mode lets you launch the first app in the folder on tap, and show the folder contents on swipe up.* Added new fast application search in app drawer.* Improved app categories in app drawer.* Improved way to manage user gestures.* Improved way to apply internal and external themes.* Improved context menu for all desktop objects.* Added new Custom Widget object. You can add new custom widgets from widget list, import them from friends and other developers, create, edit and share your own.* Added some initial extensions for the custom widgets (time/battery)* Check out ADWExtensions pack for more extensions (weather, gmail, etc).* Added template manager. Remove, add and share templates easily.* Improved icon properties dialog.* Improved folder properties dialog.* Added backup manager in advanced settings/system. Now you can import data from other famous launchers (if you miss one, report back to us so we can include it!)* Added the possibility to set a secondary action on desktop shortcuts. Swipe up over the desktop shortcut to execute the secondary action.* Probably 2 or 200 things I’m forgetting…* A bunch of wibbly wobbly timey wimey stuff inside!Final ADW Launcher version for devices with android < 2.3.x.Sorry guys, get a new device ;)Updated privacy information

Great app, just one problem, everytime I change my resolution, (which is quite regularly for battery saving when I'm not at home) the icons on the bottom bar change in size (smaller with higher resolutions and larger with lower resolutions) please fix this and I will rate 5 stars

THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! I have been using an outdated launcher forever because I could not find one with every feature that I like. This launcher has all of it. I never write reviews so speaks to how much I love this application. Thank you developers for such a great creation. I highly recommend it it's very worth your money.

Good launcher, but can you add a feature to let us disable categories. I will rate 5 stars if you do add it.

I don't like my home screen it's just...... 😑boooorriiinngg it's just that like the home screen is just simple and not comfortable and the drawer too on my Samsung but when I found this app.... I am ready explode fireworks on my head!!!!! You could change the app theme, home screen, edit apps and more I would never delete this [ Edit: ayo bro i have been using this app for over ( a year ) ← { i will edit this for every year :) } and i never regretted my words ] → "i would never delete this"

Prior to settling on ADW [many years ago], I tried a few other launchers, including the much-vaunted Nova. For me ADW beats them all. My devices look, feel, and function exactly as I want. Since I'm a Linux-only person, I'm used to having environments that *I* control 100%, so ADW is a perfect fit. I just wish its developer hadn't [apparently] abandoned it. It deserves its rightful place in the Android world limelight.
