I certainly hope this comment was not directed at me?

I did state earlier that this launcher was being used by myself on two devices, and my wife and three kids were using it over another 4 devices.

I stated I had not seen any battery drain.

That's all.

I'm not discounting any reports of bugs/glitches or strange behavior.

I'm along term nova user and member of the G+ nova community.

I see people report these things daily who claim their devices are crippled by bugs, yet the majority of users don't see anything wrong.

Of course you want to solve your issue, and i want to help, but please respect I'm also here to give honest and precise feedback and experience.

Myself and my family tend to use cheaper to low end budget devices, and older versions of android.

Its good feed back for the developer if he knows the cheapest android handset available in England (Alba 4 2017 running android 7.0) runs this launcher with no issues.

Its also good feedback to give just to inform users that that devices predecessor, the Alba 4 2016 (running android 5.1) also runs this with no issues.

I'm pretty sure this is not infact an issue with the launcher itself, but its an issue with the launcher AND the way those devices having battery drain handle this mod.

So let's all get our heads together and help each other, because calling people out for giving their personal experiences and honest feedback doesn't help anyone, including you, and doesn't get whatever the issue is discovered or fixed.

I'm incredibly sorry about earlier so post. I was running late and was stressed out. I do hope OP managed to fix this issue some of us are experiencing. Good luck with you and your family's devices friend. Cheers.
[Android Apps and Games] touns_j:
wow ...i was just stating that as a Moto G users i don't have the battery drain issue, nothing more, nothing else and i am certainly not dismissing your valid post regarding the battery drain issue as other users have posted about the same issue

now i am not sure what you're getting at with the whole family stuff ...i'm :confused:

edit: seems you misquoted me....

It makes this launcher a system app for the people who use ROMs which already have the official pixel launcher (or another launcher with the same package name) but don't know how to replace the app. Also makes it easier because it'll survive rom flashes.

Hi i have a phone with hardware navigation buttons, and the search bar is attached to the bottom of the screen and is not really aesthetically pleasing. It It would have been have been nice if there was a little space beetween the bottm of the screen and the search bar like this, or just a toggle for adding the space (in case the phone does'nt have on screen nav buttons).

Can you add this feature it or i'm asking too much :rolleyes:??

Yesterday I installed the last version from OP 3.1. Prior I was on 3.0.1 and I lost weather. I reinstalled 3.0.1 and weather didn't work. Of course, all permissions were ok because the reason of not working was the new version. I uninstalled the launcher and reinstalled again 3.0.1 and now I've it working again. If you are sure that, as Gero71 has said before, you've all the permissions ok, try to uninstall and reinstall it as I did.

I know other Samsung devices seem to be having battery drain issues.

None of my own devices have this launcher showing up on apps using battery, but none of my devices apart from one are running stock, they all run custom ROMs.

My daily device is a HTC One M9 running Lineage 15 android 8, that doesn't have battery drain.

My work phone is a Samsung galaxy A5 2016, again no issues.

My middle son just got a Samsung J5 2016 and again, this launcher doesn't show up on either Samsung, although to be fair both devices are running lineage OS 14.1, not stock.

It can't, its not allowed too.

It used a bebuggable add on to allow you to use swipe right for the google feed.

Debuggable apps are forbidden on the playstore by google.

So no, it won't update from the playstore, it will update when the dev has time to update it, and yes, we all know a newer version of the pixel launcher is now available.

That's the thing, the app itself works fine without crashing; it's the feed on the launcher that keeps failing on update. Reverted back to 3.0.1, had some success but it still crashes every now and then. I suspect an issue from the ROM/kernel.
[Android Apps and Games] bubba1601:
Yeah that was my point.

The feed (swipe right from pixel launcher) works perfectly fine on this device.
