The Faster Than Light Launcher
Make no mistake, this is the fastest launcher you'll ever run. Small, light, configurable. The Gingerbread launcher as it should have been. No useless stuff, no compromises. Performance and usability are the driving forces here.
On version 3.0, most of the limitations on the Lite versions 2.x.x were removed. 3.0 Lite users have almost the full 2.x.x Pro specifications. 3.0 Pro users have a all new game to play now: The Pro version can use existing ADW, GoLauncher and LauncherPro Icon and Dock themes, giving FTL and unprecedented array of possible theming. You can even mix Dock and Icon themes from different launchers. Google Play is yours for the take.
The Lite version still has some of the configurable options pre-loaded that cannot be changed. A lot more stuff is configurable on the full version, check the Pro Version Extras feature list below. Performance or user experience are in no way impaired on the Lite version.
Important: FTL supports all resolutions and ICS, but only 800x480, 854x480, 960x540 and 480x320 devices have 3D drawer enabled! Also ICS has no 3D drawer because it does not contain the "old" opengl interface. But as it is natively accelerated anyway, 2D drawer should be very fast.
Lite Version Features:
- Tweaked for extreme speed and smoothness
- Fully accelerated 3D Waterfall app drawer
- Option to use "normal" 2D app drawer
- Choice between 3 and 5 icon Dock
- Configurable Support for launcher auto-rotation
- Configurable Infinite looping of homescreens
- Configurable support for scrollable widgets
- Configurable number of homescreens: from 1 to 9
- Configurable bounce effect on homescreen transitions
- Configurable wallpaper scrolling
- Configurable transition speed of homescreens
- Configurable default homescreen
- Configurable "swipe up" to one of the following:
*show homescreen previews
*open app drawer
*hide status bar
*show and hide status bar
*open and close dock bar
- Configurable Homescreen grid: From 4 to 6 rows
Pro Version Extras:
- Theming support: The Pro version can use existing ADW, GoLauncher and LauncherPro Icon and Dock themes, giving FTL and unprecedented array of possible theming.
- Configurable support for resizeable widgets: only when adding them to the homescreen, you cannot edit them later.
- Configurable Homescreen grid: From 4 to 6 rows, and 4 to 6 columns
- Configurable Dock icons size
- Configurable "swipe down" and "swipe down" independently to any of the following:
*show homescreen previews
*open app drawer
*hide status bar
*show and hide status bar
*open and close dock bar
- Includes anim speed: precise control over core Android windows/transition animation speed
Basic Instructions:
- On first boot, homescreens will be empty. Long-press anywhere and start adding stuff!
- You can add/change the shortcuts on the dock bar: Long-press the place you want, and wait for the a popup to show, allowing you to choose what activity you want there.
- You can uninstall apps directly from the homescreen: long press the shortcut (even in the app drawer), drag it to the trash can that appears where the dock was. If you drop it immediately FTL will only remove the shortcut, but if you wait a bit before droping, FTL will offer to uninstall the app.

Sorry mate,
Currently it is for HDPI devices, 480x800 screens. It should be filtered by the market, I'll check it out.
But I'll try to add MDPI support in the future! Thanks for the heads up!
Cheers

good work, but can u explain why FLT need rights to call numbers / read personal contacts?

The permissions are the standard one from the stock launcher, plus the WRITE_SETTINGS for configurations.
Those you are asking about is to be able to add contact shortcuts to the homescreens and calling from there.
Cheer!
lowveld thanks for developing this for us
don't mean to put you down, but i think there will be countless requests about new features and AFAIK merging new features might bring the speen down... so it'll be a hard way to develop a new launcher (given that there are many counterparts in market)

Don't worry mate:
No compromises!
I will not add stuff that brings performance down, nor will I turn this on some GoLauncher clone or such.
This is my personal vision of what a launcher should be like. Of course there's still some stuff missing that I really want to get working.
Cheers

Because of that you have the possibility to call numbers and read personal contacts. For me those are necessary functions
@lowveld: great work, but for me it's useless without widgets. What about calendar, weather, messages, email? I know everyone is telling you what's still missing, and I don't want you to implement this right now. But did you even thought about any widgets?

Ok guys,
This can be hard, specially when you're used to Sense, but FTL, or any other non-sense launcher, does not support Sense widgets.
So you can only use standard android widgets with this. Anything out of the market, not written specifically for a given launcher (hint, go Launcher widgets) will work.
Personally, I use Android Pro Widgets for contacts, calendar, facebook and etc, check it out, it's really good. Also, FTL supports native widget scrolling, which makes APW even better!

Well, let's see how the current versions fare. It they do good, I will invest the time to provide MDPI and 720p support later. It's not exactly straightforward...

I would rather like to have this launcher for X10 mini pro, which is QVGA 320x240... I still didn't saw any kind of "smooth" launcher just for that small screen...
great work, i'll follow this one
Right we all know that the launcher that will be coming with this beast of a phone will be Rosie. For me though i like to have a variety. So putting this thread together to give you guys a variety of Launchers i found on the market. So rather than having to find them all over the place i will keep everything here in one place and will try and find as many as i can and update the thread with any further updates the developers release for the launchers.

Zeam Launcher
Description
To add Applications grid shortcut, select Add > Shortcuts > Applications grid.
Try toggle Manage wallpaper if screen scrolling isn't smooth, select Preferences > Workspace > Manage wallpaper.
Zeam, thanks to its minimal aesthetic, not only looks fast but feels fast. It's also incredibly simple to use, and unlike the other launchers it actually works very well out of the box.
My favorite feature in Zeam is configurable gestures -- but not only can you bind swipe actions, like ADW, but you can also bind double tapping the screen and the Home hardware button to actions.

The side column can be personalized as well, including changing the order and position of different catagories. You can create quicklinks of your most frequently used apps and contact in the quick launch in the side column.
TSF Shell 3D has a most powerful theme function. Apart from the difference in style, some themes even allow change in the transition animation.

Lightning Launcher
Description and features
Lose the fat, keep the muscle. Be warned, Lightning Launcher is on steroïds.
Lightning Launcher: Lose the fat, keep the muscle. Be warned, this launcher is on steroïds.
Tips, please read this first:
Use "LLW App Widget" if you want to add Android widgets.
This app is started through the HOME key and not from your app drawer since LL is itself a launcher. If you cannot select it through the HOME key then you need to clear the defaults for your current launcher.
for any question or suggestion, do not hesitate to ask: [email protected]
This application has been designed to minimize memory usage and be fast: the more memory you have for your applications, the faster they will run. In other words Lightning Launcher has been built from the ground to preserve your phone's resources and keep it smooth.
In spite of its ridiculously small size (less than 60kb!), Lightning Launcher is packed with a fair amount of features and brings to Android a very unique concept: the home screen can be seen as a giant surface on which you are free to put icons, shortcuts or widgets exactly where YOU WANT, and not limited to a 4x4 grid. Pinch to zoom in or out the desktop, use the home key to switch between a full scale view or the normal size, or double tap on empty space as in the web browser to immediately see all your icons. And everything stay functional whatever the zoom level is: widgets are alive, icons can be clicked, and so on.
Lightning Launcher drops rarely used features and focuses on useful ones but comes nevertheless with numerous customization options. Icons and widgets can be moved, scaled and even rotated freely. Each object can be configured independently, you can change the font, the label, the icon and much more !
The package is extremely small, only a few kilobytes. What it means is that the Android system do not need to load several megabytes to run this app. Lightning Launcher starts faster and run in perfect harmony with your other apps.
For people kindly asking why the CALL_PHONE permission is needed (notice that this the only one needed by LL!): this is needed for direct call shortcuts, and this permission is included in all major launchers, including Go and Pro.
For other people not asking why and putting stupid one star comments: go away, you have just lost a unique chance to try something new and better, have a good day.

hi ya. thank you for your kind words but i got declined for it.
excellent thread, i didn't even know all these options exist.
did you forget LauncherPro?
as far as a personal reccomendation - on the One S I've used ADW, GoLauncher, Zeam, Apex, Nova, and LauncherPro - and my favorite is GoLauncher. The power of the One S hardware makes GoLauncher's effects and visual style work fluidly and look great. It balances speed and customization VERY well.

I've been a fan of Go Launcher from the begining, on my old Desire. Just loaded to One S and cannot seem to get rid of the ICS 3 dot menu bar at the bottom of the screen.
Really annoying. Is there a option to hide this somewhere?
Thanks in antici.........pation.

Hey, just take a look in the One S development section!
You can get rid of the 3-dot menu by using the mod "tweak machine" which you can find here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1683552
Or take a look at the custom roms, if you want to improve the usability of your one S in general...

ZEAM LAUNCHER
Description
To add Applications grid shortcut, select Add > Shortcuts > Applications grid.
Try toggle Manage wallpaper if screen scrolling isn't smooth, select Preferences > Workspace > Manage wallpaper.
Zeam, thanks to its minimal aesthetic, not only looks fast but feels fast. It's also incredibly simple to use, and unlike the other launchers it actually works very well out of the box.
My favorite feature in Zeam is configurable gestures -- but not only can you bind swipe actions, like ADW, but you can also bind double tapping the screen and the Home hardware button to actions.

LIGHTNING LAUNCHER
Description and features
Lose the fat, keep the muscle. Be warned, Lightning Launcher is on steroïds.
Lightning Launcher: Lose the fat, keep the muscle. Be warned, this launcher is on steroïds.
Tips, please read this first:
Use "LLW App Widget" if you want to add Android widgets.
This app is started through the HOME key and not from your app drawer since LL is itself a launcher. If you cannot select it through the HOME key then you need to clear the defaults for your current launcher.
for any question or suggestion, do not hesitate to ask: [email protected]
This application has been designed to minimize memory usage and be fast: the more memory you have for your applications, the faster they will run. In other words Lightning Launcher has been built from the ground to preserve your phone's resources and keep it smooth.
In spite of its ridiculously small size (less than 60kb!), Lightning Launcher is packed with a fair amount of features and brings to Android a very unique concept: the home screen can be seen as a giant surface on which you are free to put icons, shortcuts or widgets exactly where YOU WANT, and not limited to a 4x4 grid. Pinch to zoom in or out the desktop, use the home key to switch between a full scale view or the normal size, or double tap on empty space as in the web browser to immediately see all your icons. And everything stay functional whatever the zoom level is: widgets are alive, icons can be clicked, and so on.
Lightning Launcher drops rarely used features and focuses on useful ones but comes nevertheless with numerous customization options. Icons and widgets can be moved, scaled and even rotated freely. Each object can be configured independently, you can change the font, the label, the icon and much more !
The package is extremely small, only a few kilobytes. What it means is that the Android system do not need to load several megabytes to run this app. Lightning Launcher starts faster and run in perfect harmony with your other apps.
For people kindly asking why the CALL_PHONE permission is needed (notice that this the only one needed by LL!): this is needed for direct call shortcuts, and this permission is included in all major launchers, including Go and Pro.
For other people not asking why and putting stupid one star comments: go away, you have just lost a unique chance to try something new and better, have a good day.

FTL LAUNCHER PRO
Description and features
Make no mistake, this is the fastest launcher you'll ever run. Small, light, configurable. The Gingerbread launcher as it should have been. No useless stuff, no compromises. Performance and usability are the driving forces here.
On version 3.0 Pro users have a all new game to play now: The Pro version can use existing ADW, GoLauncher and LauncherPro Icon and Dock themes, giving FTL and unprecedented array of possible theming. You can even mix Dock and Icon themes from different launchers. Google Play is yours for the take.
And of course you still have the other extras: configurable homsecreen grid from 4x4 to 6x6, resizeable widgets, and, never seen in any launcher: control over core Android window animation speed.
Important: FTL supports all resolutions and ICS, but only 800x480, 854x480, 960x540 and 480x320 devices have 3D drawer enabled! Also ICS has no 3D drawer because it does not contain the "old" opengl interface. But as it is natively accelerated anyway, 2D drawer should be very fast.
Features:
Theming support: The Pro version can use existing ADW, GoLauncher and LauncherPro Icon and Dock themes, giving FTL and unprecedented array of possible theming.
Tweaked for extreme speed and smoothness
Fully accelerated 3D Waterfall app drawer
Option to use "normal" 2D app drawer

Is this different from the earlier Blinq launcher??? I saw that the other thread is closed for comments.
Anyway looks promising. Had tried the old one when it was first launched.
Just for information, can you tell me what is the RAM Consumption of this launcher? Looking forward to trying this,
Seems great I installed today it's very nice and great customisation thank you for your work.
I would like to request though if I may for an option to keep the launcher in memory as I'm getting a few redraws and an auto hide option for the dock as it keeps popping back up after leaving the home screen, I'm using swipe up to toggle it. thanks again.

It is the same Blinq launcher but a lot has changed since the initial release. The other thread is closed because the one who was maintaining that thread was unable to do it anymore for some reason, so I took over.
About RAM consumption, it uses pretty low resources, it doesnt take more than 20mb on an average device.

Seems great I installed today it's very nice and great customisation thank you for your work.
I would like to request though if I may for an option to keep the launcher in memory as I'm getting a few redraws and an auto hide option for the dock as it keeps popping back up after leaving the home screen, I'm using swipe up to toggle it. thanks again.

Glad you're liking it.
We'll see what we can do about keeping it in memory. Btw, what device are you using ?
Regarding dock hide option, we're making it better, also we're adding few additional dock options. So this issue will be fixed in next update for sure.
I'm using a HTC m8, and yes i like it a lot it's like gnl with xgels but without the need for xposed I am very grateful for this as I don't use xposed any more and this launcher has most of it anyway.
Thank you again great work.
Do we have to have google now launcher already installed, or can we just install this. Looks very nice

Nope, you dont need google now launcher, you can install Blinq right away.
I don't have the funds in my Google about atm but I will surely buy prime as soon as I do this is worth it.
I would have brought it today but I only have £1.20 left (crying)

We'll be waiting for your feedback.
I tried the Launcher yesterday. It is an interesting launcher with great support for gestures. It is very smooth and responsive and It might take a little time to get used to. But for the time being,few missing features turned me off:
1. Custom Icon Sizing (in %)is not supported. I like smaller icons and without it the desktop and drawer seems gaudy.
2. Vertical Scrolling Absent. I prefer it.
3. SMS Badges requires Pro/Premium.
4. Multiple Dock Pages and ability to scale Dock Icons to a different size.
The feature list may be too much but I thought it could give an idea for you to develop.
Thanks for the Launcher. Will be using it sparingly till i get a feel for it.

Sapphyx Launcher The pixel launcher mod you haven't tried yet nor expected.
Sapphyx is based off a fork of the Android Oreo Launcher with a few cherry picked implementations of rootless pixel launcher i found useful and demanding and heavily modified for the uses i required of them thus leading to what I now call Sapphyx Launcher. This is a pixel mod that's heavily based on core features we see all around but developed originally from the heart. Their are no kangs here. How can you tell? Well, theirs a few stability issues, their is uniqueness, their are features you've never heard of and will enjoy.
FEATURES
-Based on Launcher3 8.1 r4
-Forked key features from Rootless Pixel Launcher (Shortcuts, Light/Dark engine, Icon Pack Support, Bottom Panel Icon Editing)
-Stripped of all Google Code to ensure the availability to everyone and secure your data of any data collection theories anyone has of them
-Context Pages 2.0 (Swipe to left Custom Pages, Original concept inspired by Blur Launcher by Luke Klinker)
-Bubbles 2.0 (Switch between android Dots or Badges for icon notification indicators and set custom tints of color)
-Pill widget returns!
-Backup and Restore data functionality
-User Profile registry for personal experience
-Homescreen Action Menu revamped from ADW Launcher from Gingerbread
-Change Adaptive Icon Shapes and Generic Background Colors or disable them
-A custom logarithm has been built to suggest Text Size, Padding and Grid Sizes for the app drawer and homescreen for all devices
-App Drawer has been completely rebuilt from the ground up. Supports Vertical and Horizontal interface, custom drag handlers, Column and Padding dimensions, App Suggestions, Search, and Color Options
-Homescreen Dock has been completely rebuilt. Supports a custom drawable that is mutated by the user to suggest an Android P background or classic Flat Background with custom tints and colors. The Dock also supports a custom search dock widget, widget support and the Swift Pill.
-SWIFT (Pill, Apps, Dash) The Swift Pill is an item located in the launcher dock to imitate the android p gesture experience and replaces the all apps button or carret indicator. Users can click, long click, swipe right and left for actions available. Swift Apps is a quick apps drawer and Swift Dash is a Custom Action panel.
-8 Different Folder styles with Smart Folder Gesture implementation
-Gestures by Sensey!
-Adaptive Color Engine. Pulls colors from the users current wallpaper and sets them inside a color scheme that may be available to certain launcher elements and views. Adaptive Primary has one color, Adaptive Secondary has 3 colors and Adaptive Accent has 4 colors to set. Users can also adjust the transparency level for that chosen color.
Use the Google Play Ratings properly as I Follow the Google User System. If you have a Problem or Personal Opinion, use the issue Report option in the launcher settings menu.
THE CODE
Overtime as I build a stronger community and build a respective trust with certain users and developers, I will invite you to the private repository that exist. This code is private to the Sapphyx Launcher project and it will stay with Sapphyx. I'm using this a learning project for myself and any developers who may get involved. Im not found of seeing all these launchers copying one another and building something unique and original is my type of game. I will compete with existing features but look at it from a different angle.

LICENSE KEYS
During the Beta, everything is free and open to explore! This will probably last a month or so to allow everyone a chance to check things out and explore but it's good to get locked in! Here are your options!
Premium License Key
-Unlocks all launcher customization and tweaks. You will also gain access to SwiftFeed Context Page Settings. This is the basic license that keeps you ensured you have everything you need to make the perfect homescreen adjustments.
Onyx License Key
-Unlocks all launcher customization, tweaks, and future implementations of Context Page development. As more pages become available, they will become more advanced and require the Onyx Key to unlock.
ADD-ONS
Drywall App
-Drywall is a wallpaper provider app i released this year. Its also open source! It provides a decent amount of wallpapers and utilities to properly set it for your screen.
Sapphyx Service Pack
-The Service Pack is an add-on for sapphyx launcher that will play a more important roll as I work on it alittle more. In the future, its roll will be to add more features to Sapphyx Launcher that would cause a user to no longer accept it as a Pixel Experience. I am currently working on the Service Pack to include more gestures, a developer backing program, security fixes, patches and more. It's completely optional and brings Firebase notification support to the launcher.
Below I talk more about the user registry and Context Pages. A full changelog can be viewed in the app and Il be building an html preview of it on my github soon.
Enjoy!
Context Pages
My replacement for the Google Now on left experience. This feature allows users to set pages that are available to them as their companion to their homescreen in Sapphyx Launcher. This was an idea based on Luke Klinkers Blur Launcher page concept but built totally different. Context Pages are loaded in an adapter in the launcher settings show you what is available to use, the license it needs to be accessed and if settings are available to it.
Swiftfeed: A powerful and customizable RSS feed with built in Google Assistive Search. A classic imitation to the Android 4.0 Experience Google Now. Loads up an rss feed (Not all feeds are currently supported), displays its contents. The header loads up the classic google now wallpapers and has a built in Google Search widget that will show realtime weather and information if you have the Beta Google Now installed. News items have swipe options for sharing and dismissing and clicking on the title will do an article search on Google Now. You can choose from an array of news articles I have provided or set your own feed. You can also change the bottom scrim color for a personal tint.
Calendar: A calendar...
Search: A basic search page with Native Google Search Widget
Swiftsnap: A selfie cam of sorts just for fun. Don't expect high quality pics from SwiftSnap. It was designed to be a selfie cam but at the same time, a trigger for photographers to get a quick pic of the world. It does consume alot of batter so be careful.
User Registry
The user registry was built to give Sapphyx Launcher a personal experience. You can set this information by accessing the launcher settings, pulling out the drawer and clicking the header and accessing the Account Settings. In here, it will ask for a profile header image, a profile avatar image, your name and a nickname. This information is used in certain elements in the launcher to give out a more personal vibe. I would like to eventually add a petite ai experience in the future so it can use this information to communicate with you as well. This information is not collected and stored in the launcher database. Your images are broken down into code and stored in the shared preferences. Kinda like getting fisted from Thanos.
Boom!
Beta Hotfix Update 7/1
Here's what has changed
-Added the ability to change the launcher settings mini drawer and full drawer size in app settings
-Added the ability to change the height and width of the dock searchbar
-General Maintenence to update checker in Changelog activity
-Removed the wrist twist concept gesture as it collided with the Tilt Gesture
-Fixed Tilt gesture to properly work and added a Show Workspace action to it
-Adjusted the padding to the Swift Pill (Still playing with location)
-Added a higher calculation multiplier to homescreen app title size (May be smaller after the update, you should change it)
-Fixed an oddball compilation bug that named Sapphyx Launcher Pixel Launcher
-Minor performance fixes in launcher workspace
-Added a proper on back press to dismiss Swift Panels
-Deleted and Removed some deprecated and unused Google Code from Stock Launcher 3 framework
-Rebuilt Pill/Date widget header for future tweaks and implementations
-Fixed a bug that suggested users they applied the Search context card when switching pages
-Added Backup and Restore Sapphyx user data functionality (A few more plans are in the making for this utility)
Now I want my users to not get used to the idea I push out updates this fast. It was a very hot n humid day and I had nothing more todo ?? but you should expect an update every week whether it's a quick fix suggested by a user to some major changes im working on.
Side Note: We noticed the Tilt gestures set an incorrect value so when this update installs, movement may return you to your homescreen so check the gesture settings!
Thank you for such active support!
Great launcher. Love the features in it
Good Launcher ?????
Working on the next beta update. Should roll out this weekend if my work schedule doesn't get any more busier but on the list so far, here's what's headed your way.
Theirs currently a bug in my math that takes the Swift Pill and Dock Searchbar and blows it up like a balloon animal on android 6 - 7.1 and draws it correctly on Android 8+ this was because I had completely forgotten about the fact of the new display size api in Oreo and up. This is being fixed to where the variables are completely manual now and you can adjust the padding, width and height of these elements. If they look awful on install or past the update, you'll be able to adjust them now.
The launcher settings will now display the changelog after each releases update to show the recent changes that have been implemented. Not many people care about the changes vs where to actually go see the changelog which is in the launcher updater activity.
The launcher settings persistent rate dialog has been revamped to a much more attractive window and the rate at which it ask for feedback has also been increased.
The text size modifiers have been slightly revamped to get better results for bigger screens, higher dp and tablet support.
Ive also refactored alot of my code that I forked from google and rootless pixel mod to hopefully fix a few problems we have on Pixel devices and essential phones. Made several adjustments for performance boost as well based on my results from the google console.
Im working to get a few new features down before I release this update so you guys have some new things to play with vs stability and performance.
A few screens of the next update.
This includes a new vertical drawer developed specifically for Android Go or low performance devices.
Ive also included an icon size variable thats pretty different compared to how other launchers have done it so we will see how it goes.
Can you add a app collection page just like Aviate Launcher had ? I just love that thing. Its so much better than having folders. Just look into it. If you can implement it, that would be great.

Care to explain this feature? I'm looking for an alternative to folders actually
This afternoon il be releasing a new beta update on xda labs and Google Play, I'll notify when the update is ready.
Changes coming in this build
-After changes have been applied in the launcher settings, it will now listen on home button press. Before, only backing out would trigger applying the launcher settings.
-The persuasive rating dialog increment timer has been increased by 5 and now uses Luke Klinker Floating Window Tuturial interface. This window will appear asking if the vibes of the launcher have been positive, negative or if you'd like to issue a report. Positive Vibes sends you to the playstore for a Rating, Negative vibes readies up an email directly to me for discussion, issue reporter launches activity to send a report on github for me to track.
-Changelog will now load up its html after each version changes. This allows you to see the latest changes right away. I am currently working on a better window and the activity itself as a few things have been deprecated.
-Size settings have been implemented for Homescreen/Dock Icons, App Drawer Icons, variable fixes to text size, Swift Pill sizes, and Dock Searchbar sizes variables(Which will allow Android 6-7.1 users to enjoy the dock more). I will continue to work on these variable settings as needed.
-A rare FC caused by Swift Actions should be fixed.
-Compound Drawable padding has been added to app drawer settings.
-App Drawer configuration code and paginated swiping improved for better performance and reliability.
-New Go Vertical Drawer Type added for low end devices that uses an automated process to calculate columns and spacing properly needed for screen size and density.
And a few other background preparations for and fixes to boring to talk about.

Its a separate page where apps appear collection wise.
To open an app from a folder we to through 3 steps, 1) find the folder 2) click on it 3) click on the app
But app collection page does that in 2 steps. 1) swipe left to go to app collection page 2) click on the app.
Pls see any video of aviate launcher. It will explain it better than i can in words or screen shots.

I found a copy of aviate launcher apk and installed and took a look. This looks like something I would consider as a Context Page or a replacement in Swift Apps panel. Il definitely keep this in mind.
New 2.00.02 update is live on xda labs
Should be live in an hour or so on Google Play!
Edit: live on playstore
If you notice some weird or aweful looking views or launcher elements because of size changes, let me know. I'm working to improve my calculations based on OS specifics and destiny
I am really enjoying Sapphyx Launcher 2. I have one question and one potential bug:
Question: Can I get a link to a "how-to" page on using icon packs with this launcher?
Bug Potential: I am using MIUI 9.5 on a Redmi Note 5 Pro, and under "Notification Bubbles" in Settings, I can't turn on "Notification Indicators." When I switch on the system notification permission switch for Sapphyx, it crashes the settings app and resets the permission to the "off" position. Tried it dozens of times, reboots, resets, turned off MIUI Optimization, plus a myriad of other attempted fixes. It just keeps crashing the MIUI settings app.

Icon Packs: Being that your on MIUI, Icon Packs are different compared to system icon packs. Simply search icon packs on Google Play, once you find one you like, install it and select icon pack in general settings
I have a Mi 5 Pro myself. What I have discovered with Bubble Indicators is that once you enable them, you'll eed to restart your device to see the changes with MIUI or EMUI or any heavily skinned OS (Reason why I use Linage OS myself). The notification settings crashing is because that particular activity the launcher is looking for isn't available in MIUI framework so not much I can do their. If it automatically disabled it, it could be a permission thing in MIUI security

Sorry, I'm new to MIUI. Love the phone, but I'm a LineageOS guy, too. Unfortunately, not every phone is bootloader unlocked or easy to force into submission of unlocked status.
I'm actually using Sapphyx Launcher 2 by Ryan Gocal - sounds like you are him?
