I really like the simple, stock - ish layout on my home screen, which rules out a few popular suggestions like Niagara.

  • I liked Lawnchair, but development is dead. Even the new alpha hasn't been updated in a year or more, and is missing features.
  • Neo Launcher perhaps came close to being the most ideal, but it is buggy as hell and also hasn't been updated in a year
  • Nova is what I'm using now, but I hate that it does not remember the drawer groups for each app once they're reinstalled. I work as an app tester and having to sort work apps manually every time drives me up the wall

Does anyone here have any suggestions?

Maybe I'm leaving myself hanging out, but I'm still using lawnchair because I like it! Perhaps worth using again?

I really like having a plain home screen that I can put widgets onto, so that leaves Niagara out

Sorry, I didn't know lawnchair was related to Niagara.

Woops sorry I think I replied to the wrong comment. Lawnchair is pretty great, but I shifted to Neo where at least the community is a little active.
