Just perfect on my sony tablet S, smoothest than all other i've been using.

Can't wait for the ics update !
[Android Apps and Games] quickxs:
Hi all,

Great launcher! Made it the default on mij Asus Eeepad and SE X10-mini.

The only thing I would like to see improved is the app-drawer. One or two rows more would fill the screen properly and I would prefer seamless scrolling instead of pagnation.

Thanks!

I have a request for the developer, could you add an option to hide the home icon in the drawer?
[Android Apps and Games] p1lo:
hide the home icon? or the menù?
[Android Apps and Games] ale6111:
Yes the home icon, I don't like it because (my phone and the most I think) have a physical key or a soft key to return home, so I think is something I don't need on screen
[Android Apps and Games] greatsokol:
I've already asked for it for 2 times
[Android Apps and Games] p1lo:
remove the icon from the dock to the desktop or to the recycle bin :D
[Android Apps and Games] ale6111:
No I didn't mean that icon I mean the "home icon" the one that have the home shape in the drawer not in the dock :D
[Android Apps and Games] shankai:
Great homescreen, i'm always looking for dock icon like what you do.

[Android Apps and Games] Dan_Aykroyd:
Is this still being developed? I've read in a thread that it wasn't longer supported, and I think I haven't seen any post from the dev in the last few pages.

Hope I'm wrong, because it's my current launcher and it's great (besides the crawling app drawer)
[Android Apps and Games] liljom:
A few days ago I just checked the Zeam launcher, I installed it from the market and I realized, that there are no scrollable widgets. So I removed it.

But yesterday I saw the thread in the xda app, and I thought, that I as the dev, to make it possible to use scrollable widgets. I SEARCHED, and I saw, that many other people asked for it, but I also saw, that 2.8.8 should be able to do it.

I tested, and voila :)

Wonderful!

Thanks a lot cloakt!!!

And people, don't forget to search, before you post! I think many of those posts were made after v2.8.8.

EDIT:

When I added some widgets, the launcher just freezed. I'm sure, that the latest version is more bugfree, has more functionallity and is more smooth. Is it a big work to do a scrollable v3.1.10? I can not even click the "update all updatable app" in the market, but I need to click every app separate, than click update and than allow it, what means 3 click per app, instead of 1 click.

I know it's my problem if I want to use your launcher with scrollable functionality, but if it takes you only a few minutes, than it would be very nice.

Thank you!

cloakt did stop developing Zeam for a length of time, but it's now back in active development.
[Android Apps and Games] jesssiii:
Cloakt,

Upgraded from DInc to the Galaxy Nexus LTE, and wanted to let you know I am still using Zeam!

I love how light weight it is, of course, but I find I just can't live without the configurable action bindings. Specifically, swiping up to open app drawer, and down for the dialer.

Thanks again!
[Android Apps and Games] Dan_Aykroyd:
Thanks! That made me happy :D
[Android Apps and Games] haigoeo:
After using almost all launchers out there, i now have Zeam installed and just wanted to show my support to this amazing launcer. Yea ok it lacks stupid effects but thats why i like it ;)

It's a super fast, low memory launcher and because of its simplicity it gives you the freedom to be creative and make your phone unique (when combined with other apps its trully powerfull).
[Android Apps and Games] rooterdam:
Agreed!

I´ve had them all but love the features in this.

Fast and light..!
[Android Apps and Games] Cookie Ninja:
Great launcher. Is my default homescreen on CM7 and ICS. One single feature could be added:

1. Notification addition (small circle with numbers) to the email, message and phone icons, to indicate new unopened emails & messages and for the number of missed calls.

One feature is unnecessary & may be removed:

1. The "home" icon at the bottom centre of the app drawer. There is a hardware "home" button available on all phones and tablets, hence this icon is superfluous.

Thanks and hope this keeps with the "barebones clean & lean" image of this launcher.

Excuse me, do you have any plan to let it can work on the Tab? like Kindle Fire?
[Android Apps and Games] G00fY2:
1+ I already asked for this feature.

I love your launcher, but PLEASE PLEASE optimize scrolling in app drawer. It feels laggy an looks unsmooth on every device I used it. There are also many people on the market, who wrote the same in their comments!
[Android Apps and Games] Pinak.ahuja:
Why isn't overscroll glow not working in app drawer in cm7 in other apps it works.

P.S. I tried it on galaxy mini running stock Samsung 2.3.6 in which overglow scroll works in app drawer.
[Android Apps and Games] Br1cK'd:
From froyo to ics, and spanning different versions of this launcher, I have never experienced app drawer lag. I think those that see any lag with this low profile launcher need to look into what else is causing their phones to lag, because IME it sure aint Zeam doing it.

Sent from my ZenDroid, meditating on the XDA App
[Android Apps and Games] G00fY2:
I really don't like to discuss about my experience, because I also used Zeam on different phones and as standard launcher. Maybe laggy was the wrong term. But just compare it to ADW or GoLauncher. Horizontal scrolling in the app drawer doesn't look that smooth. Maybe it's also a bit subjective or because of faster icon moving or something like that. But just look at the comments at the market. There are many people thinking about it like me.

PS: At the moment I'm using it with a Motorola Defy 1Ghz CM7.2. It runs perfectly.:)
[Android Apps and Games] rooterdam:
Agreed.

There is no way a light launcher like tip causes lag.
[Android Apps and Games] G00fY2:
I revised my statement, ok?:D I know, that Zeam is probably the last launcher which causes lags because of performance. But the way of scrolling does not look very smooth. I suspect, that the steps or frames by moving the icons right or left at a slide are lower than in other launcher. This could be intended for better performance. But I (and many people in the market too) would prefer slightly more smoothness.;)

That was all I wanted to say. So no need to feel criticized.

Friendly regards

[Android Apps and Games] lordcloud1:
I'm on a pretty powerful phone and the app drawer in Zeam definitely feels laggy, but I'm betting a term like choppy, or just not that smooth, would be more accurate when describing the scrolling.

Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G
[Android Apps and Games] rooterdam:
Now that is weird.

Im only using a SE X10 MINI and allthough its been fixed with CM7 and a nice kernel I have not got the slightest lag.

The scrolling is as smooth as it can be,

Therefore my guess is still settings.

Weird to say the least.
[Android Apps and Games] p1lo:
a big required feature?

maybe the possibility to make a backup of screen, icons etc :D
[Android Apps and Games] Fgroia:

[Android Apps and Games] GrNick:
Great launcher, minimalistic and fast. Please add new features only with care and caution. I think most users like zeam for what it is now (small/fast) and, imho it should stay like this.

As other users wrote previously though, I just wish I could make the home icon in the app drawer disappear. I hope there will be an option to disable it.
[Android Apps and Games] Zzz73:
I love Zeam! I use it on my tablet and my phone. Thanks so much to all Zeam devs. Keep up the great work!
[Android Apps and Games] sarandroid:
Very Simple and fast. I love this launcher :p
[Android Apps and Games] vlt96:
+1 to smoother scroll

-1 for removing home button... maybe only if selecting to have more rows, or on the galaxy nexus, it is lot harder to press a hard key than touching the screen, and on the 4x4 app grid, it will look bad... on ICS launcher that button is not there because of the apps/widgets tabs;)

I cannot download Zeam from the Android Market. It says my device is not compatible. I am using an Asus Transformer TF101. Is there any reason Zeam won't run on my device?

I am simply looking for an alternate for the stock launcher. I am already using ADW Launcher EX and looking for something lighter.

Sent from my HTC Flyer P512 using Xparent Purple Tapatalk
[Android Apps and Games] jfmcbrayer:
Probably not. The market also says my Archos 70 is not compatible, but the APK from the first post in this thread works just fine. That said... after installing Zeam, when you press the home button, it will ask whether you want to use Zeam, or the stock launcher, and give you the option to set the default. You might want to choose Zeam, but not set the default until you're sure it works.
[Android Apps and Games] 1234568:
I have recently been experimenting with different home launchers and I came across Zeam launcher. Wow! Unfortunately, it doesn't suit my needs as I want support for scrollable widgets. I know that support was removed some time ago (v.2.9.0) but I am wondering if anyone can tell me why?

I know the answer is probably somewhere within this thread but I searched and couldn't find it. If anyone can offer a quick explanation I would appreciate it.
[Android Apps and Games] R^7Z:
Check THIS post

I think that is where the author talked about Zeam encountering problems with the scrollable widgets api (it doesn't exactly address the problem but makes mention of one). I imagine you may have to ask directly; PM or possibly through Zeam's twitter feed?. I don't know how often he visits XDA, much less this thread.
[Android Apps and Games] mm166:
I like this launcher a lot but for me there is one thing missing.

Folder option like in Go Launcher EX in app menu.

[Android Apps and Games] negrobembon:
This launcher is very cool, only needs scrolling widget support and smoother scrolling in the app drawer(feels a little clunky, no offence)
[Android Apps and Games] 1234568:
And the ability to change app icons.

The transparency is the cause of the choppy scrolling. Put it on 0 or 255 to fix it.
[Android Apps and Games] californicated:
Touchwiz has transparency in the app drawer and the scrolling is smooth. So hopefully it can be fixed?
[Android Apps and Games] vlt96:
No touchwiz doesn't...

Try zooming out in the drawer, you will have all the pages of the app drawer... try scrolling that... it is laggy on gs2....

whishlist: dock icons rotation

Hi cloakt / Michael,

Thanks for giving us ZeamLauncher, it's my favourite launcher by far - simple, clean and resourceful, it's great. Keep it that way. Just one :rolleyes: wish:

I'm using zlauncher on a SE XMP (SK17i) with sensor-rotation off. When the hardware keyboard slides out, the screen layout rotates to face the keyboard, so far so good, that's what you'd want. However, the icons in the dock bar not only rotate by 90˚ but also change their position. An Icon that was on the right side in portrait view, is on the bottom side in landscape view. To me that's not logical, I'd expect the icons to stay where they are ie right side portrait => top side landscape and just rotate around their center. Could you fix this?!

If there's a reason to do it otherwise, I'd like to know.

Cheers, Simon.

[Android Apps and Games] redworc:
Hi vlt96,

I assume you prefer to have your favourite dock icons close to the thumb so that portrait right side goes to landscape bottom. Ok, accepted.

Whereas I prefer to have the dock icons stay where they are, because I use my dock icons like buttons - and buttons don't move around. When I want to use an app in the docking bar, I don't want to have to look where it's gone. The moving icons when you switch orientation just don't suit the way, that I use the dock bar.

Hi,

I used your launcher on my htc hero and liked it a lot. Now I wanted to use it on the kindle fire, but it’s not compatible. I don’t really understand what you would have to do to make it compatible, but if it is not to much of a hassle I sure would appreciate it.
