Any way to disable the 'frequent' & 'recent' apps to be shown under the pull down search menu in app drawer?
[Nova Launcher] m0han:
try disabling 'frequently used apps' in 'app & widget drawers' page of nova settings
[Nova Launcher] Araltd:
I tried that. It shows the default system icons, but not the themed icons that TouchWiz displays? They do show up on the lock screen but that's it. Someone said I had to manually extract the icons from the theme and make a icon pack for Nova? That doesn't sound right? But I dunno - that's why I asked. ;)

Double tap to sleep

Hello,

I've set up a double tap gesture of screen lock, the first time I did it it asked me if I want it to go to a deep sleep immediately or timeout of 5 seconds, I checked the deep sleep immediately, but found out I needed the other one. How can I change that now without restoring to defaults? Cheers!

[Nova Launcher] bubba1601:
Weather has been hidden in an experimental menu called labs.

But you must be mindfull that if you enable the feature and it causes problems, there is no support from the nova development team.

Google made some changes before Christmas to some permissions in their ApIs that make the weather work.

These changes broke some features of the weather, although it is reported some can continue using the feature but the weather does not update frequently.

Google controls the weather updates not nova.

This Does not work now on any android version OLDER than 6.0!!!

To enable weather in search.

Goto nova settings.

Press and hold vol down for 2 seconds

You will see a pop up message "labs menu enabled"

Go to labs menu

Tick "enable weather in search bar"

Goto desktop

Select your chosen search bar

Tick box to enable weather

Goto device settings/apps/nova and enable location Permissions.

Restart nova.

Done.

[Nova Launcher] bubba1601:
It won't.

The weather on the search widget is controlled by Google.

A recent Google update changed some APIs and permissions nova use to make the weather widget work.

As the Google changes broke some of the weather features, the nova team were unable to fix the issues because Google don't allow third party app development teams to use their newer APIs.

The Devs were left with no option other than to remove support for this feature and now Google has switched off permissions for all android versions older than 6.0.

The weather updates are known to be infrequent and stale, that's down to Google, and nothing to do with nova unfortunately.

Have a read of the nova community on g+, there's far more info on there about this, but it's unfortunate we all have to keep explaining this problem is Google's and nothing to do with nova.

Until Google issues the newer APIs to third party app developers, it's not going to work or will the nova team be able to fix the problems with it.

That's why the feature is now hidden away in the labs menu.
[Nova Launcher] droidcol:
And yet somehow it keeps updating, not real time 100% but it does, thanks, I'll read the g+ community for further problems and info.
[Nova Launcher] Thebear j koss:
Same thing was the culprit for the swipe right to open google now from the home page. Google loves adding stuff and not allowing others to implement those features. Yet somehow they also seem to add features to apps that are not native to google APIs, pretty much pilfered from independent devs that get the short end of the stick. Oh yeah, they are google, they can do whatever the hell they want...

Hello,

A few days ago i updated to Nougat 7.0 via odin no wipe.

Today i decided to do a full wipe to fix some light issues i was having.

Since the full wipe i cannot get the stock Weather clock widget to work in Nova launcher, it doesn appear anymore in the widget list.

Beforehand it did.

Please Note the weather only stock widget is available just not the weather clock widget.

Does anyone have a solution?

Thank you

Jay
[Nova Launcher] Ja_som:
How it looks, that "stock Weather clock widget"?

If is part of the TouchWiz, then it maybe it is only for TouchWiz.
[Nova Launcher] j1978:
Hello

Yes, it is the Touchwiz widget. but as i said, the widget was working till i did a full wipe and now only one Touchwiz weather widget is available.

Photo Number one does not work. Photo Number two Works
[Nova Launcher] bubba1601:
Unfortunately it won't work anymore, even if it did before.

This issue has been reported like thousands of times in the G+ community, I only know that because I follow the community a great deal.

Samsungs own stock widgets are not designed to work with nova, they are only supposed to work on touchwiz or what ever its now called.

Many people have complained in the nova community these widgets worked until the Nougat beta was installed, now it doesn't.

The support staff of Tesla coil software have constantly dismissed these "bug" reports as "device limitations" and not a fault of nova or nothing to do with nova.

In other words, your device and Samsung is no longer allowing these widgets to be displayed on nova.

Doesn't matter that they did before, it matters now that they are not supposed or designed to work with ANY third party launchers, not just nova.

They are for touchwiz exclusively.

LG and Huawei owners have made the same complaints.

This is Samsungs fault, I suggest you take the issue up with them, but I doubt they will allow their widgets correct permissions to run on a third party launcher!

This is so sad I have no words [emoji22]
[Nova Launcher] j1978:
Ok. Thanks for the answer. Fyi it was even working on nougat 7.0 (none beta). Which I updated manually via Odin without doing a wipe. But as soon as a did a wipe it stopped working.

For people who don't use English language.

When I do a long press on Google maps I see the "shortcut" work and home in my language (Italian, lavoro e casa), but when I click on one of it the app search the word in English, not "casa" (home) but literally home, so search the nearest place named "home "

Is it the same for you?
[Nova Launcher] Pika-life:
I have a similar problem too. Please fix this
[Nova Launcher] AndroidDeveloperLB:
Hi,

I've used this launcher for years, and always had this setup :

3 desktop pages, while the middle one is the main page.

Each time a new shortcut was created, it was created on the middle page (the main page), which is just as I wanted.

However, a few weeks (maybe months?) ago, this has changed, and all shortcuts get created on the very far left page, no matter which one is the main page.

It doesn't matter which app created the shortcut, whether it's the play store, Nova launcher, or another app. It always gets created on the left page.

How come?

Can I somehow change it?

It's really annoying.

Because of this, I've switched the middle page with the one on the left.

OP, can you please fix this, allowing to choose where new shortcuts will get created? If there is no room, just go to the next page.
[Nova Launcher] Thebear j koss:
It is how launcher 3 is set up. Move middle page to the left most and left page to right most. Enable continuous scrolling, then when on left most page, swipe right and that page you put on the right most side will be to the left.

The savage mutilation of the human race is set on course

[Nova Launcher] AndroidDeveloperLB:
I don't understand. Is it possible to still have it the way I used it? To have 3 pages, while the middle is the main page, which will get shortcuts created into it?
[Nova Launcher] Ja_som:
Try to disable adding shortcuts in the Play Store and enable it in Nova settings - desktop - first option under new apps
[Nova Launcher] AndroidDeveloperLB:
As I wrote:

"It doesn't matter which app created the shortcut, whether it's the play store, Nova launcher, or another app"

I already tried using Nova Launcher settings for this, even though I prefer not to use it.
[Nova Launcher] Thebear j koss:
Not the way it used to be. Android launcher3 which new nova is based off of doesn't use the launcher2 method of creating or adding screens. Same as how adding widgets or changing wallpaper is different now too. You can have it your old way, just need to make the 1st screen your middle page, the 2nd screen your right most page, and the 3rd screen your left most. Then when on your 1st screen or middle page, swipe left the last screen or your left screen is there, swipe right and your right screen will be there. Icons are added to the 1st screen until it is full and then added to the next available screen. If there is nothing on the screen, or empty screen, android by default deletes that screen as it is wasting resources and it is deemed unnecessary.

The savage mutilation of the human race is set on course

protest&survive
[Nova Launcher] AndroidDeveloperLB:
So it's not what I wanted. :)

OP, please allow to set the shortcuts being created on the main page, instead of just the most right page.

[Nova Launcher] belmore:
Is anybody else having an issue with widgets like Fancy Widgets and Beautiful Widgets updating the time?

They update fine on other launchers, it seems like it's just Nova that I have the problem on. App was updated, and problem is still there. And like I said, update just fine on other launchers. So my guess is that it has to be something with Nova. I had the problem on beta10, and updated to beta12, still not updating time on widgets.
[Nova Launcher] just4747:
Yes, if you search my posts in this thread, you can see that I've many times mentioned this widget freezing/not updating issue with all versions of Nova since the first version. No amount of wiping/ROM reflashing fixes this, it is Nova causing it. My last posts I even quoted about 5 other cases posted in this thread about the same issue, but no fix and no confirmation from devs/Kevin yet. In fact when he did respond to this a few weeks ago, he said it isn't Nova, it must be a widget itself. But ALL of the widgets as a whole stop responding/updating. You can still press buttons/menus on them, but they will stop visually displaying updates/changes.

I have to restart Nova or even reboot sometimes to fix it. And when it does fix, it usually starts happening right away again (I test by changing my power widget options like sound/vibrate to see if the button shows the active light on or not- if it doesn't I know the widgets have frozen/stopped responding again). Very very disappointing every time I see this, often.

Belmore, I bet if you go to Nova settings and restart Nova (or Force Stop it in system settings), then go check the widget again, it will be updated. This shows the same issue I have with Nova, which is that the widgets suddenly stop displaying any changes until Nova is restarted.
