Well, as my main stock launcher is the cringe Poco Launcher, I'd say Pixel Launcher Extended.

I use smart launcher. Have for probably 7 or 8 years. Never paid for it... Free version is perfectly functional. Pixel 6 pro.

I have six icons on my home screen, I love the double tap feature that can launch another app from those home screen apps. The app pages take no more than 3 buttons to find any app since it is sorted by letter or category.

It's easy. I haven't even really thought about using anything else.

I use mLauncher, a fork of OLauncher. I like how simple and clean my screen is.

Total Launcher -- I didn't see this mentioned anywhere in the comments. When Nova sold out, I tried out a handful of launchers and landed on Total for the customizability.

Olauncher .It is very minimal and less distracting.

I'm using Lawnchair, have been for a few years now. It does everything I need it to without getting in the way.

Neo Launcher https://github.com/NeoApplications/Neo-Launcher

For non FOSS i use Niagara, for FOSS i use Kvaesitso

olauncher light ; its all i need...

I've used ton of diffefent ones over the years but always come back to Nova

Pixel 4a 5G, Nova launcher.

Pixel 6 Pro here, had been using Nova Launcher for ages and purchased a license for it. Once it changed owners I swapped to Hyperion launcher, while it is decent and has similar functionality to Nova is just not quite the same. I suppose it depends on how picky you are about privacy...

Pixel 7, Niagara launcher. I find it much easier to find apps by starting letter then any other method, it looks very clean and has everything I need

Olauncher. Super minimalist. Love it. The best part imo is the app drawer. Instead of cycling through endless pages of icons that are always being changed so that I can never remember what I am actually looking for, it uses a text list of all apps. Just start typing the name and it will automatically complete and open the app. It's literally changed my life 😂

Maybe not life changing but it is sooooo much nicer for my flow

I used nova for years, until I discovered Niagara. It's so effortless to find and launch the app I'm looking for

I use KISS launcher. It is simple and I love it.

Ive used Niagara a lot, but eventually got bored and started using Smart Launcher.

I love the simplicity of Niagara and customization and organization of Smart.

Stock Launcher is boring and doesn't have the features I'm looking for. It's been two or three years since I'm using Niagara Launcher and I absolutely love it. It's clean, innovative and makes my phone way more usable imo

I used Smart Launcher for a long time but have been using Niagara for the last few years. I appreciate the minimal interface but being able to find things quickly. Currently using a Pixel 6.

Currently using Lawnchair 12.1 and their icon set, and I'm quite happy with it!

Olauncher, Foss and actually minimal

Apex Launcher. Left Nova a while back and it offers basically the same features without the aggressive bullshit. And while the pro version is somewhat subscription based the lifetime price (7€ here) is absolutely reasonable. `

Another vote for KISS. Took some getting used to, but now I have trouble using any others.

The search is so handy.
