So I just updated my Nova Launcher Prime & in my app drawer I have 4 Icons on the top above a horizontal line followed by my Folders. I have went through playing with all the settings to try and remove those 4 duplicate Icons but have had no luck, anyone know what the particular settings that refer to those so I can hide it and get my App Drawer back to normal?
Thanks!

Hi i am new to android and just started using ADW launcher.
i apologize in advance if this is a dumb question but i have tried searching to no avail.
I just installed ADW launcher on my htc evo and is working great. However i have a question. Is there anyway to put the app drawer into the dock? It seems redundant to have the dock and then the separate thing for the lab/rab and app drawer. I am just trying to minimize the number of screen taps/flicks and would love to be able to launch the app drawer from the dock rather than having the swipe up/down to go from the dock to the app drawer etc
thanks again

Two Options...
1. Don't use the dock bar (close it in settings)
2. Don't open the dock bar before trying to open the app drawer
You could also bind it to a button or a gesture in adw setting > system settings.
is there any launcher tat will disable the top right corner apps drawer.. and place the apps drawer beside the home, back , recent apps ??
i currently having the shortcut key as apps drawer.. but i wish to disable the top right corner apps drawer and top left corner google search..
You can change the settings to make the current screenshot button be used for app drawer.
Apex & Nova launchers will allow you to remove "Persistent search bar"
(which also removes the apps drawer icon)

Hello fellow N5 users~! I am hoping that someone out there knows the solution to my frustration.
Coming from TouchWiz and 3rd party launchers such as Apex and Hololauncher, I'm very used to having the ability to hide app icons inside the app drawer. If I have the apps as shortcuts on my homescreens, dock, and folders, I like hiding the reduntant app icons inside the drawer so that when I do enter the drawer, I don't have to filter through the apps (I have 120 apps installed).
I found some apps that promise to hide apps inside the drawer but they seem to only work by disabling the apps, which leads to app icons in the homescreens, dock, and folders to disappear as well.
So is there a way to hide apps inside the app drawer like we can with Apex?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
There is no way to do this with the stock launcher.
I've tried many launchers but can't seem to find the one I can setup to my desire. Nova, Apex, Action, Smart, Go, Trebuchet, etc. nothing really seems to give me that. My requirements are very specific :
1. I should be able to get a clean home-screen, no app shortcuts, no widgets, no search bar/button, no dock or App drawer icon even.
2. Three to four gestures needed so that I can bring the app drawer, the phone app and Google Cards.
3. The App Drawer needs to be categorized alphabetically.

In the pictures the 2 drawers are of Trebuchet and Solo. I want the design of the drawer to be like Solo, but I don't like its home screen, I can't remove the search bar or move it or resize it, neither can I remove the dock. The drawer of Trebuchet I find very crammed up.
Nova gave me most of it except the drawer and also Arrow launcher was good but couldn't get a clean home-screen.
So free/paid, any recommendations ????
Try Smart launcher
Well Nova actually can do all of this.
What was your problem with clearing the homescreen? Have you checked settings -> homescreen settings -> dock?
You can turn google search bar and the dock off.
And the appdrawer can be categorized alphabetically: settings -> appdrawer -> layout -> list
Hello, i have been using Sony and Samsung phones for a long time and have gotten used to horizontal app drawer where i can manually place the icons wherever i want.
I just bought 7 pro and having trouble with the vertical scrolling and alphabetical order.
Any suggestions for horizontal app drawer with manual placement?
Use a different launcher. Nova launcher is a personal fav.
Tried nova launcher. But i could not find these options in nova launcher
