I am looking for a sort of ring launcher widget that I can dock into my Nova Launcher dock, so that I can group icons by category and clear up my homescreen a bit.
It has to be customizable in terms of the appliations I can add. Any suggestions?

Yes Go launcher ex
Sweet! Thanks!
By the way, is it the only launcher with folder feature? I don't like the tabs in the app drawer and I can't find a way to hide them.
If I'm right the ported Arc launcher has a folder option too.
Link.
Also ADW launcher (and adw launcher ex) have "categories" which equates to the same functionality. Arc launcher is also definitely worth checking out also, it's only a shame the launcher bar doesn't look as slick as the app drawer.
Go Launcher has folders, just drag and drop icons on top of eachother and a nice glass looking folder forms
You can try MX Home T as well if you're looking for something different.
i've noticed in a lot of homescreen shots that some of them have the notification area hidden. i haven't been able to find out how to accomplish this. any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks.
This is usually done through a home replacement, like ADW or Launcherpro. There's an option in settings. With ADW & ADW Ex, you can set your swipe up or down gesture to show/hide the notifications. In LauncherPro you can make a gesture on a dock icon to do the same.

awesome! thanks (i hit your thanks button). i found it after your direction in the preference section in launcherpro.
No problem. Put a shortcut to it via gesture on one of your dock icons so you can toggle it or expand the notifications when you need to so you don't miss anything.
Glad I could help

Set the dock as a overlay.
Yeah I already tried that and it's not working. The uccw widget still sits on top?
Nova lets you push things to front or back and overlap widgets if this is what u mean.
What do you guys prefer having on your home screens when it comes to widgets and apps?
Do you go for usability, productivity or design?
I don't like text underneath the icons on my homescreen and I shrink the icons in the app drawer. In all those years I regret that Google doesn't offer those options. So that leads me to ADW EX launcher, which I use on all my devices.
use nova launcher, have done since its initial beta release. i got for a default home screen which is minimal then a second right screen with a few more frequent apps. I always have a dock at the bottom for most frequent apps and try and increase the dock from the standard size with smaller space between icons. I dont like text underneath any icon
I've used Nove for some time. Great launcher. Love swipe gestures. But I like functionality on my N5. Wondering if there are any useful widgets worth considering on an Android tablet.
xposed
I like xposed framework because of the neat different transparencies and other features that it brings to the overall setup. it's going to be interesting to see how framework helps Android lollipop 5.0 customizations.
I use Nova as my launcher and use of the gestures.
Only one homescreen, no icons, only Dashclock widget. Keep it nice and clean. Swipe up to get the app drawer and that's only one page. Swipe down for Firefox. That's all I need, clean and simple.
I disable the lock screen too, waste of time.
