Dear [MENTION=4292729]SpeedFire-[/MENTION] ,

I bought the Fcc Premium app in early 2019. In the meantime, some changes in corresponding apps, like Google Maps, occured and also Fcc Launcher got many changes, which of course were intended as improvements and functional enhancements. At the same time, I also had to experience, that the changes have caused bugs in basic functions, that are essential for me. Although I have repeatedly drawn attention to this in the XDA forum some time ago, there has been no improvement. My impression was, that your main focus was on the implementation of new functions and not on the maintenance of the existing ones and that my posts were simply ignored.

I think, the Fcc Launcher is excellent in its idea, so I would like to make a last attempt and ask for fixing some bugs before I finally say goodbye to Fcc.

On the very important malfunctions, still occuring in the current release 3.435:

#1

The Fcc "Route" widget, which is supposed to display the turn-by-turn information of the navigation software as a direction arrow and text on the home screen, does not work completely in conjunction with Google Maps and my Allwinner T3P3 with Android 6.0.1. The text is shown, but instead of the directional arrow, the triangular arrowhead logo only appears constantly and unchanged (An arrowhead similar to the Fcc logo, which is shown when the launcher starts).

This bug occurs in connection with Google Maps, whereas the widget works correctly in connection with Sygic.

I tried switching between "Allwinner" and "Phone/Tablet" in the Fcc settings without success. No matter, whether I allow Google Maps to display the additional green message field on the Home screen or not (what, by the way, I don't want to allow).

In comparison, I used a Google Pixel smartphone with Android 10 and a Motorola/Lenovo smartphone with Android 7.1.1. Both are known to use "pure" Android without any manufacturer modifications. On Android 10, the widget also works with Google Maps, just as it should be. On Android 7.1.1, on the other hand, not at all, i.e. no direction arrow and not even text (Fcc 3.435).

Both, Android 7 and 10, only for comparison. For me it is only important, that it works in my car with Android 6.1.1. However, the comparison shows, that where you have just revised the launcher, i.e. with Android 10, there is a solution, but this was not tried with the older Android versions. The problem is not a problem of the older Android versions, but of Fcc, because, for example, the CWG Launcher works without any problems with the similar CWG-Widget in my car radio. Can CWG do something that Speedfire cannot, or was Speedfire just not interested in revising the Launcher for older Android versions?

# 2

In the Fcc settings there is the function "Always go to default screen". I deselected this point and in previous versions it worked perfectly: After pressing the Home button, I returned from a running app to the launcher page from which I called the app. This no longer works with the new Fcc. With Android 6.1.1, I always land on the main page of the launcher, no matter what is selected in the settings. In contrast, it does work well with smartphones with Android 7 and 10. Earlier versions of Fcc work in my car radio, the current ones do not. Please, do not recommend pressing the "Back" instead of the "Home" button, because I want to run the app, i.e. Navigation, in the background while displaying the launcher page. Many apps get exited by the "Back" button.

# 3

Actually I wanted to list other malfunctions here, but now I have concerns, that I will get bogged down. # 1 is particularly important to me, a correction of # 2 would be very nice, everything else is peanuts in comparison, which you may be able to tackle later. For example, the OBD speed widget can't display in the same way like the GPS speed widget. With the OBD widget, the value (km/h) is displayed in the same same size and in the same row as the number, without a space in between number and value. It is not possible, like it is with the GPS widget, to display the value in smaller size in a second row or just cancel displaying the value.

Of course, I know, that I have not spent any assets on the Fcc Launcher Premium, but at least more money (and, by the way, time) than on other Playstore apps. It would therefore be very disappointing for me, if I couldn't use this launcher with the intended functions, including the "Route Widget". I would very much appreciate it, if I could get an answer, whether it is worth waiting for a repair or whether I should look for an alternative right away.
