The problem is that the topic is 101 pages long and half of it is people asking for features that the developer said that will never be on this launcher. At least 6 people asked for the same feature as you, and all have received the same answer: it won't happen. The same for custom icons, etc.

As I said, Lawnchair is pretty close to stock Pixel 2 launcher, with all the customizations you might want. They are even releasing an update shortly with more Pixel 2 gimmicks soon.

It's not personal, dude. It's just that it happens all the time. People just need to use the topic search more often. Sorry if I seemed a bit rude, it wasn't my intention. :good:

It's just me? Or there is a delay pressing the home button (from any app)

---------- Post added at 03:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:38 PM ----------

Seems with 3.0 version the delay is shorter
[Android Apps and Games] angomania:
... no problem. I was also a bit sarcastic ;)

---------- Post added at 05:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:39 PM ----------

I agree. But Nova is packed with too many settings. Google Pixel Launcher would be perfect ... without the search bar ;)
[Android Apps and Games] patrickd83:
im good with the launcher with the way it is(besides the occasional battery drain here and there). what features, if any, would we expect to see in say V3.1, if and when it comes out?
[Android Apps and Games] XxperexX:
what about 7.0?
[Android Apps and Games] raubkatze:
No, it doesn't work on android 7.0.
[Android Apps and Games] XxperexX:
? k thanks
[Android Apps and Games] mike9976:
Not working black screen thx
[Android Apps and Games] rmaspons:
I'm on the last version
[Android Apps and Games] rmaspons:
For me that's the Google feed... Where all my cards appear.

But if you refer to the Google app, you can swipe left to dismiss too. Here's the gif
[Android Apps and Games] cink40:
Well not the last version for arm 64....App for arm 64 working differently now - no more swipe away unfortunately
[Android Apps and Games] hachibi:
working like charm on Nexus 5 with DarkRom 7.1.2. I installed modded v1.2, google card was there. If you had a shadow/ opaque navbar on homescreen, just force stop & clear data of Pixel launcher then open again. You also need set notification access on, in your setting to enable notificaton dot (android 7.0 up)
[Android Apps and Games] quphkzie:
if you have root, go to "/system/priv-app/" and delete the nexus folder and restart your device. now its gone!
[Android Apps and Games] hoopsdavis:
Working great on Essential Phone

Can you please upload screenshots? I cant enable the weather!
[Android Apps and Games] quphkzie:
the weather icon suddenly disappeared in my galaxy s5 lte-a running lineage os 14.1. Any ideas what happened?
[Android Apps and Games] cink40:
So? You can no longer swipe away cards in new google app for arm64. Google it if you do not believe me. I think there was article on Android central also...
[Android Apps and Games] rmaspons:
Haha man I believe you. What do you want me to tell you? Let's just say then that I'm telling to anybody with a non arm64 Android phone: that you still can swipe to dismiss cards in Google.
[Android Apps and Games] Kris Nelson:
We are not talking about the same thing.. you are talking about swiping right for the Google feed page.. Yes that works the same.. We are talking about the news cards in Google feed.. You can not swipe them away anymore as intended by Google on Pixel Launchers.. swipe away news cards in Google feed on Google Now Launcher is still present.. hopefully that will not clear this up

---------- Post added at 04:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:31 PM ----------

That is your app drawer..lol

---------- Post added at 04:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:33 PM ----------

And that is your homescreen..

Can you not post a screenshot of what i requested.. your Google Feed page?
[Android Apps and Games] Antonio5462:
Work fine on Doogee Shoot 1 running LOS 14.1
[Android Apps and Games] cink40:
Actually it is really stupid, if you use Pixel launcher and latest Google app on arm64 phone, swiping away is no longer possible - not on feed and not in app, but if you use Google now launcher swiping away is still there...they crippled Google app if you ask me...

Droid Turbo 2 stock 7.0

V 1.2 working fine. Swipe for Google Feed works. Weather works. Using Google Wallpaper.

Notification dots work in app drawer but not on home screen. Not a big deal for me, just providing feedback.

Animation in Google Feed is a little janky, but not bad. Home screen is fluid.

Thanks OP!
[Android Apps and Games] hoopsdavis:
Can someone post an image of the Pixel Paunch settings page, I think my settings options are limited.

Thanks in Advance
[Android Apps and Games] madvinegar:
Do notification dots work on android 7.0 or only on 7.1 and later?
[Android Apps and Games] everdred:
Really want to use this but I don't trust it.

Edit: sorry, thought I quoted. I mean the edited version with the padding by the search. It gives a security warning.
[Android Apps and Games] bubba1601:

It works Very well on 7.0!!!!
[Android Apps and Games] bubba1601:
It works perfectly well on 7.0.

Don't give false information!
[Android Apps and Games] XxperexX:
yh but do u have app shortcuts? like holding down twitter to compose a tweet for example. Rate that background btw
[Android Apps and Games] raubkatze:
Read carefully before posting please. We were talking about App Shortcuts.
[Android Apps and Games] bubba1601:
I know what you was talking about, and you mean this correct?
[Android Apps and Games] raubkatze:
It looks like app shortcus are implemented in your rom.
[Android Apps and Games] matrixhaj:
Search bar is nice, but its crashing without Google apk. Google apk is bunch of spyware and huge battery drainer. If it could search without google apk, it would be perfect. Or if someone had made google apk MOD, for just search without google now and other BS...
[Android Apps and Games] bubba1601:
Oh.

Thank you for that information.

I didn't know that. :rolleyes:

---------- Post added at 08:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:29 PM ----------

Your comments are BS, not the Google app.

I'm running the latest Google app on one device and the latest Google app beta on another.

I don't get any battery drain from the pixel launcher or the Google app.

What infact drains my battery is google play services, and that is nothing to do with the google app or this launcher.

You are obviously entitled to your opinion but that's the first time in many years of an android user I've ever heard anyone say such things about the Google app....and its a completely unfounded allegation and its completely wrong.

Download Google search lite, from apk mirror, its a search app, nothing else.

No BS, no spyware no nothing.

It wont work with the pixel launcher because the pixel launcher search bar needs google to work..
[Android Apps and Games] raubkatze:
You're welcome!

That's how it should look:
[Android Apps and Games] bubba1601:
Yeah, I have them shortcuts on my stock Alcatel launcher too.

My device is 100% stock, its not rooted, no custom ROMs installed.

I don't get those shortcuts in Nova launcher on this device though.

I do have the full shortcuts on my other device, a HTC One M9, but that has android 8.0 though :good:

(Sorry for the confusion)
[Android Apps and Games] pupun47:
With icon pack features that'd be great.

But I think it's impossible to make it work perfectly with icon pack just like lawnchair launcher
[Android Apps and Games] raubkatze:
Yes, it could be implemented by Alcatel. Nova also has its own implementation of this feature.
[Android Apps and Games] bubba1601:
Try lawnchair launcher.

The dev for this launcher works on lawn chair as well and is not giving any customisable options on this launcher as he wants it to stay 100 % stock.
[Android Apps and Games] etch_kayy:
I use this launcher, with pixel live wallpapers(modded for 32bit arm device) on LineageOS 14.1 i.e. Android N 7.0.2, with location services set to battery save, and OK Google hotword Always Listening on all screens, not to mention that my device is a 4yo SGH Note 3, I did change the battery last year, but my phone works better than any Samsung/Apple latest phones(w.r.t battery times) I game on it with all the aforementioned features enabled and stream a lot of twitch/YouTube aswell... For the spyware... Meh good luck proving that since Google takes all your info legally, providing you with the free software just like Facebook or Twitter, so it's a no brainer IMO... Even if someone is recording my data there's not much they're getting except some games, Reddit, and *#rn.
[Android Apps and Games] mikus92:
Awesome Job ! Thanks to the Devs. ?

It would be so nice and perfect if we can select an icons pack and create a backup/restore file configuration...
[Android Apps and Games] etch_kayy:
+1 on that works flawlessly on my device aswell... Specs mentioned in the previous post.

Oreo notifications also appear in this popup/3d touch sorta thing(untill the notifications are present on the tray, as intended).
[Android Apps and Games] bubba1601:
Did you read any of the previous posts?

The developer wants to keep this launcher 100% stock, so he said there will be NO customisations like icons packs or back up restore.

If you want all that, use nova or lawn chair.

The dev for this launcher also works on lawn chair and is recommending users who want more customisations move to lawnchair.

Please read past posts in future, because it helps you and gives you further information .

Your question was asked 5 times on every page for the past 101 pages and was answered five times on every page for 101 pages.

All we ask is you do a little reading.

Nothing more.

I'm not sure what you and everyone else who keeps repeating this question when its answered two posts above your own doesn't understand about no icon pack support or customisations.
[Android Apps and Games] raubkatze:
Great that it works for you but n this case it is not os but rom (software) feature.

App Shortcuts is exactly Android Nougat 7.1+ feature. So it's necessary to have android 7.1+ or rom implementation to get it work on this launcher.
[Android Apps and Games] matrixhaj:
Google services drain could be fixed by magisk modules or greenify with root, if Iam not mistaken...

Google app/velvet on the other hand could not. Iam not talking about huge drain, but if you delete google apk, you will notice better battery, thats all. Just check wake up counter from velvet apk.

Another issue with google search is that you cant index music into your search without having installed crappy Play Music apk...what a joke -but thats little offtopic ...

To my point - it would be great to have option to hide search bar, or use search without google apk.
[Android Apps and Games] mikus92:
You're damn right. Sorry for my newbie mistake... :o

Anyway it works perfectly with my ZTE Axon 7 on stock Android 7.1.1
[Android Apps and Games] XxperexX:
so if im on 7.0 im hopeless in getting app shortcuts? rip ?
[Android Apps and Games] bubba1601:
If your ROM doesn't support (like mine) or you don't have android 7.1 or higher, then you won't get app shortcuts.

My Alcatel A3 XL is only a few days old I I did not realise the app shortcuts were a ROM feature, they don't usally work unless you have android 7.1 or higher.

My other device has 8.0 and has all the full app shortcuts.

Sorry

---------- Post added at 11:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:21 PM ----------

Take a look back a few pages.

This was discussed at length and the development team stated they are wanting to keep this launcher 100 % stock and the same as the original.

So there's going to be no option to remove the search bar.

Without the search bar, this launcher is just like action, Nova and all the others with a Google page.

So unfortunately, to do what you want to do isn't possible with this launcher

FYI

I'm running lineage OS 15 (android 8.0) on a HTC one M9 and magisk isn't installing currently but I will check to see if modules do work when magisk is working on my device.

BTW

I have tried stuff you suggest with the velvet apk, and I have never honestly noticed any battery drain at all from anything connected to the Google app itself, but play serices and other play store related stuff, yes I have.

The latest google beta app im running on my moto E third gen with android 7.1.2 is the better one to be honest.

Great launcher, but is there anyway to remove the white background from the dock in light theme? It comes off using the dark theme but I prefer the light theme, I just hate the white dock background as it doesn't look nice at all and doesn't seem to be the Case with the actual pixel 2.
[Android Apps and Games] Sheetzie03:
You are doing something wrong Bec it's working. Make sure your location is on and enabled for the launcher.

---------- Post added at 12:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:59 AM ----------

What do you mean? There definitely is not a ' white background from the dock ' on the home screen or within apps, there is when you swipe to Google Now and in the app drawer, but that's barely noticeable, that can't be what you're talking about is it?
[Android Apps and Games] raubkatze:
It just looks better on oreo but it's still there.
[Android Apps and Games] apollo4513:
It's like a frosted effect, see my new screenshot below for clarification: the first shot is in light theme, the second is in dark theme, notice the frosting behind the dock / search bar?
[Android Apps and Games] apollo4513:
In the light theme I get this frosted effect behind the dock on the home screen...
[Android Apps and Games] apollo4513:
Notice any difference :
[Android Apps and Games] sivajithee:
Did you set Nova launcher as default ? , if no then shortcuts dont work
[Android Apps and Games] apollo4513:
Is yours set to light theme?
[Android Apps and Games] raubkatze:
Of course.

That's how it looks with dark theme:
[Android Apps and Games] etch_kayy:
Just the latest apps, provided permissions for notifications(mentioned in OP) and set the launcher as defaults... It should work fine... All my apps are stock Playstore ones, I have beta WhatsApp btw... But I'm sure the stable one has these icons aswell.
[Android Apps and Games] apollo4513:
Yes, and how does yours look with light theme?
[Android Apps and Games] etch_kayy:
Same as yours, there's no third setting to it. Please don't spam the thread, Dev won't customize this, this is the default Google appearance, dark/light Dev won't be adding any 3rd which has white background on appdrawer but no BG on appdock. He have clearly stated this that he won't be doing any customisations what so ever.
[Android Apps and Games] apollo4513:
I'm very sorry for asking, I thought this was a forum for people to ask questions and share info. I wasn't spamming, I just couldn't understand why every other screenshot I had seen of this launcher had a background-less dock. What a nice welcoming bunch... or not.
[Android Apps and Games] note3userr:
Yes it is for asking and sharing info. And this has already been asked many times and the answer has been shared many times. If you just took a minute to search the thread you would see that instead of just coming in here like the lazy ass you are and expecting information to be spoon fed to you.
[Android Apps and Games] Gero71:
3 replies after each other with the same question and screenshot (s). :eek:

Can I ask users reading my comments and replies to posts here to use XDAs search function, and PLEASE NOT private message me asking for xda links to other launchers mentioned here?

I'm not here to be anyone's personal XDA link provider.

If you can't or won't search, tough, don't expect me to spoon feed you with information you can't be bothered to search for.

Get off your lazy asses and press the search button (it has a magnifying glass icon) for links to the xda lawnchair thread.

[Android Apps and Games] bubba1601:
I'm one kind person, honestly.

Even I get fed up reading the same requests for icon packs and customisable content people keep posting here, sometimes 5 times on every page of this thread.

I will happily help anyone here but I will not help anyone who would rather send a private message to me simply because they can't be bothered to look for links here, especially when those links to what they request are posted in this very thread., only a few comments before their own!

This is something I'm seeing much more of in this thread, as well as bold and confident statements from novice users of "bugs" that are down to user ignorance of features or settings.

This is because they rush here to post and complain they have a "bug" but fail to read a few previous posts before posting and then end up getting angry because they receive a blunt and honest answer that their bug isn't a bug and they have not turned something on or off as explained in a previous few comments............

This thread rapidly went veering off in a totally unnecessary direction weeks ago whilst genuine support and assistance requests got left unanswered..

That's not a good advertisement for this once great place, made worse when "older" users like me get told off for making honest and to the point comments that only emphasize the importance of doing things for ones self and not expecting someone else to do it for you.

If any of my comments cause offence or hurt, then I sincerely and genuinely apologise :svetius:
[Android Apps and Games] boom_bee:
Love it, now we just need icon pack support like lawnchair which is my daily.
[Android Apps and Games] DeeStyles:
OP has stated on numerous occasions that icon pack support will not be included to maintain the stock integrity of the launcher. OP also works on Lawnchair and has said that if you want more customization, just use Lawnchair.

Data incompleta no Idioma Português Brasileiro

Olá. A data é apresentada incompleta no idioma português brasileiro no Moto Z Play. Só aparece: "Sexta-feira, 10 de", não aparece o mês. Pode corrigir isso?

Thank you for your help! From what I noticed the line where the current day is presented allows a maximum of 17 to 20 characters. More than that does not appear, because there is no line break. I hope it's already being fixed.

Or mean that you already have the pixel launcher installed , the original one or smth like that , try uninstall others launcher (other pixels like launchers you may have ) or it can also mean bad download, try download again or can be that you have a newer version installed and you try to " update " with a lower version.

But I think it's the 1st one mostly. Download last version ^^
