My phone use to fly no problem. But since I added the new google voice with the widgets, I notice that it has been lagging. mostly when I use google voice itself and on the homescreen since I added some of google voices widgets.
I really hope that Launcher Pro will find a way to add google voice to it's messaging widget that would be awesome. But has anyone noticed this problem too?

Looking for a Google Voice widget similar to the messaging widget that HTC makes. Anyone know of one or want to udertake this project? I think it would be a hit personally, being able to see all you voicemails - scrollable - from a home screen widget!
I am looking for a way to have notifications appearing on the dock icons for K-9 (email), SMS (I use GoSMS) and Google Voice Voicemail.
I can't grow fond of the notification bar -- it gets too busy, messy looking for me. So I generally hide it.
But I still want to see message and voice mail counters on my dock icons.
It seems that the stock apps can do it, but I like a unified email app, and use Google Voice for my voicemail. Plus, I like my own icons....
Anyway this can be done (and what is the reason that this feature is not not built into any of these 3rd party apps)?
This works just fine with ADW notifier. Not sure if you need ADW Launcher EX or if the free one will work.

Thanks! This is a good reason to switch to ADW Launcher (even though I was happy with Go Launcher).
ADW Notifier is absolutely great for everything else, but it does not notify of Google Voice messages
Anyone with a solution to GV notifications?
I am using the GN although this is not specific to that only
I would like to us Apex or Nova
On Apex I like that I get a number above the messaging icon on the screen/sick. And on Nova I like the single google search icon that brings up the voice 'thing' without the search bar
Is there an app that does the messaging notifications so I can use Nova
Or is there the google search icon. So I can use Apex
Thank you
I use both the Gmail inbox widget, which let's me preview and scroll through current mail without opening the Gmail app, and the Google Calendar widget which allows me to preview my calendar in agenda mode.
Both widgets have extreme lag in scrolling. Calendar has lag and sync/updating issues.
It was like this on my Edge (exchanged for regular S6) and on my new S6.
Anyone else experiencing problems like this?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I'm glad you mentioned this... I have the same issue as well... I only use the Google Calendar widget and that lags badly when scrolling through my agenda. When inside the app itself it is buttery smooth like everything else. Let me know if and when you find a solution that isn't an update.
I originally ignored this because let's face it... It's very minor.
Have the same issue , any updates?
Is there any way to get 5 icon in the row with google launcher?
Nope, that's one of the downsides to Google Now Launcher, not very much customizability.
ICONs Borked
Google Now launcher displays many of the icons too small on my S7 edge. Even with Googles own apps.
While Chrome, Maps, Earth, Drive, Hangouts, News & Wx appear normal.
Others such as Gmail, Photos, Keep & Youtube are too small at about 1/4 scale. Same thing with non Google stuff like WhatsApp, Uber and Skype borked.
I read that Google fixed things about six months ago to "normalise icon sizes" in Google now, but whatever they did does not look so good on the S7. The undersize icons display as if they are in a nested folder or group of icons with the grey background and shadow. Is there a setting I am missing to fix this?
I have version 6.1.28.21.arm64.
