Some feedback on the new version:

The ability to choose how many dock icons you want is a great addition.

I can't seem to enable my system default icons. When I go to icon theme settings, there are a couple notable settings: Default and 3.0 UI icons. I would assume the default setting is supposed to use your android system icons, but instead it uses the new 3.0 icons.

Another thing I noticed is that the homescreen grid is more vertically stretched out. This means that my clock widget on the top half of my homescreen now touches the status bar. This is not aesthetically pleasing. Having some "breathing room" between Widgets and the status bar is preferrable. It was better before when there was a bit of space between the top widget and the status bar, like in 2.87. Please add an option to restore the layout to the old style if you wish to introduce such a dramatic change.

App open/close transitions are still laggy due to the forced zoom transition conflicting with android's ICS system transitions. I hope adding an option to use the android managed app transitions instead of the zoom is something on the whiteboard for a future update.

Thank you for hearing me out. I will continue to use GoLauncher as it is my favorite launcher. For now though I'll be sticking with 2.87.

Yep, laggy screen swiping. 2.86 had good screen swiping. After that 2.87 and 3.00 takes work to swipe between screens quickly. this issue is a two steps forward, one step back result.

I love this launcher :D no lag so many themes i loved :D
[Android Apps and Games] lilxflip:

[Android Apps and Games] fergusson:
The launcher is just great!. But to much ram, I mean is there any lite version or something? My phone gets lag after a while, Its a samsung ace, I know not top of the best.. And I have a question does this app consume a lot of battery too?

Besides my rare questions, Is the best interface!
[Android Apps and Games] Big ZD:
The most I've seen is 25 mb being used. Really, for a core app, i don't think that's bad. Consider that Facebook uses 42 mb regularly... Just sayin.

I like that you added the ability to reduce the dock to four icons, but it looks terrible on my phone. Jaggies and all. But good that the option is there. Stock blur uses four and while it looks better (the icons scale up better than the ones I have there now), four bothers me. Feels wrong somehow. LOL.

Otherwise looks great!

Also, mine is only using 28MB of RAM. That is not bad. My phone has 1GB though so it's all good.

thank u for your answer it solved but still i cannot find the go notifications setting for bubble on dock:(
[Android Apps and Games] giannisgx89:
This is a really great launcher and with this version it becomes even better! :)

Although i think that when entering in the app drawer there is no need for the home button and the rest on bottom. Because not only it takes useful space for the apps, it

have no purpose there.

Why we have the home physical button then? :)

Also for us, the galaxy nexus users it is really a pain the home button.

Cause when entering the app drawer i have the ics soft navigation buttons on the

very bottom then goes the dock in the home screen which have a standard size and

when i enter in the app drawer i have home icon and the rest with bigger size than the

homescreen dock.

Look at the Galaxy SIII how the dock disappears. I mean this has to be a normal behavior.

I'm really waiting for those changes if you're planning to add them by default of even as an option.

[Android Apps and Games] scottjb:
You have to go in to the themes option and set the Android default theme in there. Once done, you will see default Android icons on your home screen. Took me a little while to find that.

I agree with the alignment problem. One of my widgets - BeWeather - actually was "under" the status bar because it was too high. It chopped off the top of the widget.

In general, I see this like other Go apps. All around pretty good applications but bloated with too many features, most of which I don't want in one app.

Totally agree. Why add something that is done automatically (imho anyway). At least make it an option users can turn off or on, based on their preferences. If it's completely removed, you'll see all kinds of people wanting it back. I think the key to having the best app of any kind is to provide options for the users.

[Android Apps and Games] kUdtiHaEX:
So I gave a chance to this new version of Go Launcher.

I must say that there is a lot of progress (positive mostly) made and that is very nice since i preffer to use this launcher as my default.

On the other hand, there is still a problem with performance. I own Galaxy Note with ICS on it. It is an AOKP version of ICS Android ROM. Scrolling through pages, especially with a some large widgets on them (like Mail, Twitter, even GO EX native widgets) is pretty choppy and not so smooth as Apex, for example. On the other hand, app drawer scrolling is very smooth and fast.

Other performance problems are related to noticeable amount of lag when tapping Menu button or when I try to get Menu for some shortcut on my homescreen. The strange thing is that this app works very nice on Galaxy S and more or less good on Galaxy S2. But on Galaxy Note which has pretty big screen and huge resolution - this launcher is not a way to go even in this v3. And just for the record, the latest 2.x version works pretty much the same on GB ROM's on Galaxy Note.

On the other hand, there is a lot of things I like - for example, a new way of laying shortcuts on homescreen is very nice; also I like a home button on my App drawer even if some guys in this thread think it should not exist (I don't have ICS soft buttons).

EDIT: and yes, the way of defining the icon size is veeeeeery confusing. What the hell is base size (131 in what measures) and why the custom size cannot be set beyond 86, I think? Isn't it much more easier to deine icon sizes in pixels instead on some weird units?
[Android Apps and Games] iXNyNe:
I'd like to see this gone too

Sounds like there's more than enough demand to remove it,

Make it a plugin, separate it. Having it check for app updates is wasting our data plans. The market/play store already checks for us.

Bottom line, stop wasting our data, and also free up some extra resources the phone doesn't need to waste on something that isn't needed...
[Android Apps and Games] Big ZD:

Make it as light as possible and let the individual add we see fit.

Hide the dock...

I've read that you can use the launcher in full screen mode, which means the dock would be hidden.

How does one accomplish this exactly as I'm not finding this option within preferences at all anywhere.
[Android Apps and Games] c0dac0da:
Ya but it looks good only on 4 dock icons , Most of us prefer 5 icons in dock .. so it should be same size without increasing the icons in the app drawer .
[Android Apps and Games] ShadowSkills:
Ah, I see

You can reach it while using a gesture, e.g. swipe up to show/hide the dock bar. Then the dock bar can be hidden and you'll have the full screen.

Hope that helps you.

I vote add option to remove home and search , setting bar from app drawer (Im on Honeycomb 3.2) and just add setting/menu button to top nav/menu bar. Thanks.

I also think there should be an option to totally never have a dock, not just hide/un-hide it. And really use the screen real estate.

also hide status bar doesnt work with honeycomb, I imagine this should be a relatively simple fix if you're interested. There are many apps that use this function.

maybe , either notification of beta updates in App, or aoption to check and download latest beta. I click on check version and it says I have 2.87, etc.

thanks, good job.
