Great Launcher, Love it... Some of the Menu choices are a little confusing and I don't even know what some of them mean... like Dock Switch... What is it? What does it do? I can't see anything different with either choice for it... And same with Desk Menu???
[Android Apps and Games] chanw4:
Not sure about 3D launcher but resizable widget is needed since some widget will be messed up if you use custom column and row (5x5). More managable App drawer is also good. Scrollable widget is not really need but it will be a nice addon.
[Android Apps and Games] HereAsWell:
Thanks.

That is what I was expecting, but what is the reason for the internet permission?
[Android Apps and Games] steph-one:
When can we expect the new release ? :D
[Android Apps and Games] Adidas108:
Amazing work!

Cant wait :) keep it up!
[Android Apps and Games] ch213q:
I will do a quick release tomorrow , which fixes

1. the performance issue (not smooth),

2. chance of missing app icon that is installed on SD card.

3. Random crash on Driod phone.

The app draw ordering will come out few days later coz it take little bit more time...
[Android Apps and Games] steph-one:
Thanks :)

And take your time ;)
[Android Apps and Games] d0nald01:
Really good launcher, hope to sew more updates
[Android Apps and Games] Ihaveanepic:
I have a request. Is there any way of turning this into a unique launcher instead of another Launcher Pro or ADW copy that has a few added options? It would have been nice if you had customized the Acer Liquid Stream launcher with some of your app drawer options and then you would have a kick ass launcher that no one else has.
[Android Apps and Games] Dbikerid3r204:
I'm just wondering on the screen rotation preference, I have mine enabled on my droid 2 but it still stays in portrait mode even when I slide out of my keyboard. But i still really enjoy this app, once this is fixed it will be golden.
[Android Apps and Games] cpdbolinho:
nice

My new Launcher..

like more than other's

good job!
[Android Apps and Games] scoobasteves:
I downloaded this for the cool black notification bar and battery style but apparently that doesn't come with this:( lol
[Android Apps and Games] huskerpat:
Can you add the ability to add shortcuts to the dock? I'd like to be able to add the shortcut for touchdown email. Can only add the main app now.
[Android Apps and Games] vido.ardes:
I will try again when the performance update comes out as it is a little laggy for me (I am on a hero) but it has a lot of potential for a quick lightweight launcher, nice work!
[Android Apps and Games] benjimatt:
So I actually really like this launcher very much. Ive never liked ADW launcher because to me it is a boring launcher And I dont like the look at feel of it but it is a reliable launcher.

Launcher Pro is my favorite but sometimes this launcher runs like crap and it irritates me. But It is hard to leave the launcher pro widgets. especially the calendar and facebook.

Go launcher I like that he is taking things from MIUI and putting it into a launcher that everyone can enjoy (droid x). Also this launcher reminds me of adw because of its speed and stability.

I am afraid that this is turning into another adw/launcher pro hybrid. I like launchers that are different and ground breaking. The last launcher I tried that had this was "NETFRONT LIFE SCREEN" But that havent had an update and it is too buggy right now but the fact is that it was different.
[Android Apps and Games] ker0ltjuh:
you should put the app drawer icons in boxes like galaxy s launcher, MIUI or iphone

and plz make it faster ;)
[Android Apps and Games] matrix2004:
My suggestion is make the dock customizable just like LP then add your own touches.
[Android Apps and Games] nitr8:
Nice Launcher....

I swore by LP but this I think will hopefully be replacing my LP.

Key things I find missing:

Backup / Restore Settings

Sort apps by name

Custom Icons for apps

Keep up the good work.
[Android Apps and Games] soneracar:
I have to agree, kite our something along those lines is like that. Draw out a ui and make it happen. :) I like to have something different and even if it has more features I would like to see something new. Either way youre doing an awesome job so far!
[Android Apps and Games] SysTem-X:
@OP, if you remove all the homescreens, how do you re-add them? I can't find the option, and I need to clear data to revert back. Should the dock also be able to have a scroll effect even if the dock is set to 1 only?

"Setting" should be "Settings" i believe, thanks for the great work!
[Android Apps and Games] Mycorrhiza:
I think this will be my main launcher once you add "sort a-z" in app drawer.

As for now I am on Zeam, so fix it quickly :)
[Android Apps and Games] danielsf:
I really like this, but i need scrollable in built widgets like launcher pro, if you would be able to make some scrollable widgets for say a pro version of you launcher i would be willing to buy, i just use the launcher pro plus widget too much. Thanks :)
[Android Apps and Games] kevin2516:
I hope you add the option to use 4 icons on the dock, as well as the 5. Because with 5, some icons are too small and can't be seen properly
[Android Apps and Games] Torres90:
Will Go Launcher automatically backup my home screen icons and preference settings when the new version released? I spent quite a long time customizing it and although there's no a problem for me to do it all over again, bt it's somehow tedious
[Android Apps and Games] ch213q:
**update **

Uploaded a quick fix version to google market. (not sure how to update the attachment here though..)

1. better scrolling performance

2. fixed random missing app icon (if app was installed on SD)

3. fixed crash issue (small chance on droid)

4. changed Number of initial home screen to 5.
[Android Apps and Games] ch213q:
if you do the upgrade through google market, I believe yes the settings will be kept.
[Android Apps and Games] DrAkO82:
Just to know,

What the difference between this launcher and zeam ?
[Android Apps and Games] chester73:
Just some ideas

Just switched to Go Launcher and do like the look and feel of it. However, there are a few issues that are keeping me with LP for the moment.

1) No resizeable widgets

2) No actual Go Launcher widgets (I love the native calender widget from LP)

3) Apps in draw are very jumbled

4) No custom icons for dock

5) Dock icons you can only choose applications. I need the option to link dock icon to a shortcut as I use Folder Organizer

6) In LP I can swipe up on say the phone icon in the dock and it will show a pop up of missed calls without having to open the app. Would also like this for gmail/k9 so I can swipe up on the icon and it would show a preview screen of new emails, etc so i can then decide if I want to go into the app and read them or not.

7) Ability to 'drag' widgets to another screen instead of having to uninstall and reinstall. MIUI had the option that when you clicked on 'add widget', it would show you across the top a list of all widgets that were available and underneath a preview of all your homescreens. You could then just 'drag and drop' the widgets to where you wanted them.

8) When you opened the notification bar it would include shortcuts along the bottom to wifi, sound, gps, etc (it was customizable as to what you wanted included in that list) so I didn't have to put actual widgets for these on my homescreens.

Anyhow, just some ideas, don't know if any of them are possible but all of them would be nice! Great first effort though - will definitely give it another look after update.
[Android Apps and Games] happyllj:
I am using it, hope it better and better
[Android Apps and Games] Jincos:
Was just about to post this. Should be in v2 or v3.

Thanks for the GREAT launcher though, I switched from adw ;)

Moving Icons

Not too familiar with Android - got my first device a few days ago (Apad) - I definitely prefer this app to the native Android launcher. I found Go Launcher pretty intuitive. Looking forward to its development.

Can I move the app icons between screens? I tried dragging them to edge of screen with no joy.
[Android Apps and Games] john77:
You App is great !!!

it was nice when you add possibility to remove, not replace with "+" icon, from dock panel
[Android Apps and Games] ch213q:
yes you can. Drag one to the edge carefully the 'preview' screens will show up. Then put it to desired screen

If you are talking about drag icon between screens in function chart. Try long press on icon first to enter 'edit' mode, where you can rearrange icons. Good luck!
[Android Apps and Games] ch213q:
Your comments and suggestions are valueable to me. Thank you!
[Android Apps and Games] kevin2516:
Um you can drag widgets. Just hold and home screens will pop up.

Also I hope you add the feature to change dock bar image like launcher pro
[Android Apps and Games] aditya104:
Please add the option to hide apps as in LauncherPro
[Android Apps and Games] Lollookevo:
Messed up my dialer for some reason, Had to uninstall it. Galaxy 3 i5801
[Android Apps and Games] Freddan80:
I like this alot, the drawer scrolls so smoothly. Would like to change the dock icons and perhaps use LPPs dock graphics but thats not a priority.

Loving this now and will use it for a few days to see if it still feels great.
[Android Apps and Games] samc-:
a love it!!! ... in next release i would love to see drawer alphabetical
[Android Apps and Games] kevin2516:
Option to disable wallpaper scrolling would be nice.
[Android Apps and Games] drigerott:
+1 lol:D:D
[Android Apps and Games] PollPixx:
Found another thing. When going back from 5 screens to 3 screens, the whole thing freezes. You cant do anything with it anymore. Please fix this....
[Android Apps and Games] TrOjAnUK:
Hi,

Do you plan on adding the abilty to sort Apps Alphabetically?

Its the ONE thing that drives me nutz!!

TrOjAn
[Android Apps and Games] DDoZ:
For me there is another thing that drives me nuts.

I don't remember whitch phone has it, but I know it's somewhere:

To Group the Apps By type: Default, Usefull, Games, .... tagging the group at the beginning.

what do you think about that
[Android Apps and Games] barakisbrown:
I had it on my Epic before I wiped to Dk28 but it got to the point of being unstable with just basic use. I love the concept. I will keep checking with it.
[Android Apps and Games] mocsun23:
diggin it so far. Works smooth on my HTC Aria. Big ups on this launcher. Might uninstall ADW ASAP. Please just have the apps in alphabetical order or let us rearrange them ourselves.
[Android Apps and Games] samc-:
thank you very much for new release

now we can sort drawer

- alphabet

- latest installation first

- earliest installation first
[Android Apps and Games] .mak:
This is an excellent home replacement! I paid for LauncherPro and am considering using this instead! The only thing it really needs, for now at least, is scrollable widget support and/or it's own set of widgets for Facebook/Twitter/etc like LauncherPro Plus.

Excellent work!
[Android Apps and Games] TheMorpheus:
Now with alphabet drawer it is complete. Good job!!
[Android Apps and Games] HereAsWell:
Thanks for the new version.

It is really getting better and better.

But there seems to be a bug in the alphabetical sorting function:

Applications starting with lower characters are not sorted. Only Application starting with upper characters are handled right.

Do you plan to integrate the lacking animations to the app drawer open and close events and also to the screen preview opening?

I miss them somehow...

Best regards from Germany
[Android Apps and Games] steph-one:
I didn't find this option :confused:

I took the apk in the first post ( GO_Launcher_release_200.apk ), is it right ?

PS: In "Check version" I've 01.10.00, is it correct ?

edit : 1.11 from Market, alphabetical order found :)
[Android Apps and Games] Adidas108:
thx for info :)
[Android Apps and Games] Caz2k11:
From the reviews this looks like a great app.Im fairly new too android stuff so go a lot of reviews when choosing too install things on my phone.

Well i have downloaded this from the market and installed.But for the last 10 minutes all i have had on screen is "initializing,please wait" .Not sure what's wrong or if there is anything wrong but 10 minutes so far seems a long time.

I have not tried too restart my phone since i dont know what the app is doing and it if is accessing files restarting may mess it up.

Is this normal for the app too take this long too initialize ?

Samsung galaxy S 2.1 phone.

Edit

Dont worry it on now just took a little time that's all.First expression are looks good but bit sluggish,maybe froyo 2.2 it will work better on.

Thanks all the same ill try it out further and see how i get on.Since i have not tried any app similar too this i have no comparison but will leave feedback if i encounter any issues.Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] botolo78:
It's fine on my SGS 2.2 (JPO with onclick lagfix).

Great job. It's the first time I leave TouchWiz for another launcher :)
[Android Apps and Games] Semicuda:
Awesome work! No problems so far, and although I paid for Launcherpro... I might even stay with GO :)
[Android Apps and Games] jiggad369:
Thanks for the update! Really good job! :D

Few things I would love to see in the future..

-Allow us to change the icons from the gallery?

-Maybe a reflective dock?

-Auto-hideable dock through gestures?

-Better scrolling performance on home screen and dock?

-Resizable widgets?

-Restore original animation between screens?

-Sorting by "most used" apps?
[Android Apps and Games] pritishd:
can we the ability to hide certains apps in the app drawer?

Also when i tried to sort the drawer to alphabetically it got stuck in sort loop.
[Android Apps and Games] kevin2516:
Nice option to sort apps alphabetically, but when i install new apps, it still does not sort them alphabetically, i have to sort it again.
[Android Apps and Games] steph-one:
Just one thing: each time I have an update for an application, I loose the icon in the dock.
[Android Apps and Games] spankyu:
Brilliant App!. Love it the way it is.. dont change anything... except for maybe the smoothness when a live wall paper is on is a bit slow/sluggish :)
[Android Apps and Games] DDoZ:
I have a problem:

I've set ADW.Launcher as default with "Home Switcher" but every time I switch on and off my mobile, after ADW.Launcher has loaded, GoLauncher automatically loads its self.

When you'll fix this problem, I'll reinstall it. ^^
[Android Apps and Games] 24601:
Very smooth and quick Launcher. Like the work so far.

+1 on scrollable widgets.
[Android Apps and Games] PoTi_96:
Quite cool!

Works geat

Sent from my X10 (running custom 2.2.1 ROM from SDCard on custom 2.1 ROM without a cracked bootloader ;) quadrant score: 2374 ) using XDA App
[Android Apps and Games] chucky80:
awesome!

This launcher is smooth! The only thing it needs to be complete is it's own set of widgets like facebook/messaging/twitter.Great Job.
[Android Apps and Games] Skkip:
Really great!

However there are some things I miss and hope to come in the next version:

1) scrollable widget support

2) widget size spanning

3) the ability to hide apps

:)
[Android Apps and Games] chanw4:
I had to remove Go Launcher as well since it will load itself on startup even when it is not the default launcher.
[Android Apps and Games] PollPixx:
I don't know if the dev will read here frequently, but I like to use text icons on my homescreen. In other launchers there is the possibility to hide the app name in the shortcuts on your screen, with Go Launcher I can't find this option.

It really is really smooth but these kind of things needs to be implented to make it a workable dayly use launcher. Now I add with bettercut my text icons and it shows:

Handcent

---SMS---

Handcent (as the name underneath it, which really looks ugly)

I don't know how far you want to continue development of this Launcher, it has great potential but there are several usseful comments in this thread to make this launcher even better. For now I still use LPP as default launcher, as soon as some of the suggestions made here are implemented into the Launcher I definately will use this as my default Launcher.

Also with Multipicture Live Wallpaper (which let you pick a different background for each page) it doesn't line out perfectly on page 5. See picture.

The first 4 pages are good, but on page five there is a thin line on the left side which is from the background of page 4. I would say it is around 5 pixels wide, but it is changing up to 15 pixels sometimes.

Why is that? It looks to me the pages are not correctly measured by you as with ADW / LPP this problem does not occure. Using just one wallpaper would not be noticed this problem I guess. As a graphic designer I really can't stand this thin line which is now ruining my background on page 5....it's one of my strange habbits, but I really can't look at it... :D

Hopefully the dev will read this and check this out on his phone. I use a X10, but I assume this problem occures on every phone...

Cheers and keep up the good work,

Arnold
[Android Apps and Games] Sgt. Stinger:
as soon as this has scrollable and resizeable widgets I will gladly dump launcherpro plus for this :)
[Android Apps and Games] manubadboy:
I was a fan of Tw before but GO launcher is amazing..I have tried Launcher Pro..Its good but GO Launcher is exceptional..This launcher has Immense potential..Hope someone works on it(I can't coz I don't know what to do)..;)
[Android Apps and Games] me_p:
amazing Launcher.. i'm loving it...
[Android Apps and Games] sgeorgiev:
hey guys ! i wanna ask you where should i paste the icons that i want to put in and to use them ? because i dont like the default "bonus" icons from Go launcher. and how to sort my apps alphabetically in the apps menu ?

cheers
[Android Apps and Games] cxian:
This rocks!

I'm very satisfied with the experience. There's no landscape mode in the Droidpad though. Overall Thanks for the absolutely great free app! :)

[Android Apps and Games] ratchet789:

[Android Apps and Games] steph-one:

[Android Apps and Games] DannyBiker:
Great so far. Would be perfect with the ability to set the number of screens and the default one...;)
[Android Apps and Games] PollPixx:
+1... Latest update slowed down my phone real bad...freezed it with tb for now.
[Android Apps and Games] chughgopal:
my android is just 2 day old n i hav loaded it with hundreds of stuffs.

an believe me go launchr is the best.

just loved it.

bt are there themes available??
[Android Apps and Games] ch213q:
Sorry I cannot reply the post one by one, but I have noted all the feedbacks and tried best to fix bugs or put new functions in each new releases (always available in google android market).

Please continue to suggest as I am checking this thread. Thank Y'all!:p

[Android Apps and Games] unknownrebelx:
Awesome Launcher guys! I will be replacing LauncherPro with this for the time being!

Thanks :D
[Android Apps and Games] Inosite:
Awesome launcher with great ideas.

I have only 2 suggestions (besides the previous ones the others already made)

1. The gestures could be a little shorter to recognize (what I mean is, a little flicking move is not enough to move from homescreen to homescreen, and this, at least for me, (compared to launcherpro *AND* cuz of my short fingers :D ) is a little bit uncomfortable.

2. The app drawer's default framerate is way too low compared to the homescreen's, is there a way to make it adjustable? (I have an I9000, and I think the hardware should be able to handle it, so it may be a cap in the Software)

Thank you :)
[Android Apps and Games] TomBous:
First of all, thanks you ch213q :)

This home is for sure an home killer, i've just made it my default. I used to use LP.

So my feedbacks are:

- A bit slow when going back to home when leaving an application.

- The widgets aren't resizable (Or maybe i didn't find how?)

- A way to save the home settings (widgets, apps etc...)

- Maybe some battery optimisation

- Maybe a zoom out annimation to screen preview.

Keep up the great job! :)

I'm on CM 6.1 (Nexus One)
[Android Apps and Games] ch213q:
Guys~ Let me explain something most of users may concern about:

1. Q: GO Launcher(GL) restart (redraw) sometimes after quitting from other app?

A: It's android's feature that system automatically kill some processes whenever available memory is low. When you see redraw/restart, it means GL has been removed from memory due to the app you just run which might be consuming too much resource (such as games...).. That's the same reason that GL becomes little bit laggy when system's used memory reachs about 250M. In the next two release, we will consider provide a 'keep-in-memory' option to user (like LP already did). That way, android won't kill GL even in case of low memory and you will get better feel of 'speed'.

2. What are the new features of next release? (tomorrow...)

Q:

A. Support scrollable widget and widget resizing!

B. Icons won't be missing and stay the same spot after upgrading.

C. Much faster switching between tabs in function chart.

D. Fix some crash issues for Droid phones

E. Support folder in app drawer.

E. (available two releases later) Theme save and restore.

Also, recommend 'GO SMS' and 'GO Weather' developed by other folks in Dev team. .New Arrivals. :)
[Android Apps and Games] steph-one:
Thanks ! :)

I heard about "folders" to sort app (Games/Office/Tools...). Is it true ?
[Android Apps and Games] ch213q:
That's right. I forgot the 'folder' feature. Basically, you can group your app into different folders.
[Android Apps and Games] ch213q:
Welcome back this afternoon..;)
[Android Apps and Games] ImraanK:
Replaced launcher pro with go launcher...my app draw is not as fluid and some of the animations tend to lag..

also the icons for custom dock apps are too big that they dont even get the glow green effect.when pressed..

Also when the menu key us pressed.."setting" should be "settings"

but wth.. I still love it!!! Looking forward to future releases:-)

[Android Apps and Games] FormelLMS:
One thing I don't like with this launcher.

I've made some themes for Android (you can see in my signature)

Some are with an Glass StatusBar.

With standardlauncher, everythng is fine. With ADW Launcher we must uncheck the "Wallpaper Hack" then it's fine. If we do not uncheck this, the statusbar is black.

with Launcher Pro and Go Launcher we cannot uncheck some hacks. There the statusbar can't be in a GlasStyle.

Dear Go Dev's:

Is it possible to make the thing working as in Stock Launcher or ADW Launcher?

There are so many Themes with nice looking Glass optic here at XDA.
[Android Apps and Games] Noitora:
How is that done via the app?
[Android Apps and Games] Neffstarr:
i see we can change the icos by long press what about the dock can we change the dock look?
