[Android Apps and Games] Nx Biotic:
***Disclaimer***
This launcher project is a homebrew learning curve for a future in code development.
I am more experienced in reading code than writing code so bare with the timely updates as this project is a learning
experience for me and for developers looking to develop their own launcher to understand how much time a project like this could take up.
This launcher uses the Google Services API to power google plus features and manage cache data stored from the launcher to improve performance.
It also needs permission to access your INTERNAL/EXTERNAL DATA, MAKE CALLS AND ACCESS CONTACT INFORMATION and
I can guarantee your data is safe as nothing is taken of yours.
This data is only needed to allow gestures to work correctly and the launcher to perform accurately, if you don't agree on to this code, than you can leave this room.
I promise your device is safe in my hands.
Cheers!

Mission Statement

To provide my users with an accurately designed launcher experience for the minimum sdk21 powered devices. This means the launcher is built with the latest targeted sdk (24) and is has the standardized tweaks launchers should contain in the launcher market. This launcher is also Fremium meaning its free but allows users to purchase a license code to null out intrusive donation dialogs (Altho a free product to android users, I would like to get funding for my time so i can go bigger). This launcher is also powered by Google Services to provide exclusive Google Plus Features and a faster performance on AOSP devices. This project has a very friendly community on Google Plus and we would like to keep it that way! This project also has an awesome dev that does give aways, one on one time with users to troubleshoot problems and takes request; which is hard to find these days.

Feedback

I enjoy feedback however negative comments keep to yourself. I want a clean thread. If you want to trash talk on Google Plus or Twitter, go for it. I build based on community request and suggestions. What Sapphire is today is based on this awesome community at Google Plus.

Source Code:

Previously, the plan was to open source the project to community rom devs. Because of the extensive amount of work ive included in this Launcher and several features being forks of obsolete projects on github and a numerious amount of Android Libs included, i fear the source will be abused on kangs so, this project will not be open sourced howevor i will glady share any snibbet code to any developers and developers who would like to contribute or fix something is welcomed as I've had a few contribute in small ways. Community rom devs are welcomed to use Sapphire Launcher in their custom roms with permission from myself. I made this decision because of the numerous developers work being included and the license that protects it.
