Nova launcher prime has a number of gestures built in. I only use swipe up for app drawer and swipe down for notifications.

You're not likely to find that as it would have to control the actions on a system level across all apps. Android simply isn't built for that yet.
I use native immersive mode with GMD Gesture Control for swipe navigation with no nav bar (swipe up to show it), very customisable. Needs root. Generally good at recognising the gestures.

roger that, will give it a try.
Never mind
Does anyone know how to remove "At a glance" from Pixel launcher?
I want to replace it with "Another Widget" as it supports multiple different calendar sources and has more customisation.
I really like the stock 3 Pixel launcher for everything else. I tried using Nova etc. and I didn't like them as much.
Try Customized Pixel Launcher [CPL], that's the way I went to get rid of that widget (AND the google bar in dock).

Yes it is pretty good!
But it doesn't support the stock gesture navigation very well
I've been using Lawnchair v2. It does all of that, and also let me change the number of rows and columns of icons, icon size, and handles legacy icons better.
I don't think you can remove the whole widget, but you can change it to only show the date and time by holding down on the homescreen, clicking "home preferences", and then deselecting everything in the at a glance section.

Which stock gesture navigation are you talking about? ? You mean the recent apps and switching between those? Because other than that, there is not much of gesture navigation on Pixel?
Hi, I have been using Custom Stock Roms (i.e. LightROM NFE v20), and had been searching the S7 Forum and the Entire XDA Forum.
With no luck, or I may have missed it, I couldn't find an answer on...
...How to Tweak the Stock One UI Launcher to have varying App Launcher Icon Grid like 7x7, 6x6, etc.
I know, I can just use Nova Launcher.. but to do it in the stock Launcher, it will give a more pretty look to One UI..
and maybe, somebody also knows how to enable Non-Theme Store Icon Packs to work with One UI
You have to enable navigation bar, it'll unlock more grids, changing resolution unlocks more.
Have you tried searching for modded One UI Home?
To change icon packs use theme store.

Oh Shoot, I just Installed a New OS and Disabled NavBar, I've already set up all my apps. :laugh:

Are you referring to this: Complete One UI Project
Thanks mate..
I have tried several with no luck and for whatever reason any 3rd party launcher seems to not consistently work, ie default launcher gets "un-selected". So anyone using a shortcut maker that allows you to select an image?
I've had no problems with Nova Launcher. I use the Samsung swipe up navigation gestures and all seems great.

If you install goodlock (and the taskchanger sub app) from the Samsung app store then all of the gestures work reliably
Do you guys manage somehow to remove search bar from the home screen with Pixel launcher and add % display in QS? I checked the mods in pixel 6 pro thread, but don't know if they will work on A13/7 pro.

Hello. I got the phone today. And that's the first thing that bothered me. But as far as I could find the information, it is not possible to remove it.

Not possibe on stock launcher
Maybe with aosp mods ( you will need lsposed)
I just use Nova launcher 8.0.3 beta with Nova Google companion. It's a heck of a lot easier and it lets you hide the notification bar as well.
I use LawnChair as Launcher. It is imho nicer then the stock one and has more features and you can remove the search bar from home screen
I wish they would allow you to do this instead of a third party launcher - the animations in third party launchers are not great compared to stock.

Not sure what you mean by the "animations" but I use Nova Prime and 3 button navigation, and everything works great. I used gesture navigation for awhile but got tired of it a couple of years ago and went back to button navigation and never looked back.

When you swipe away an app it animates the app going back into the icon in a fluid way. Third party launchers can't do this.
Use Pixel Launcher Mods to hide apps, enable icon packs, and change out the at a glance or searchbar widget. It requires Magisk.
In order to blank either of the widgets you need an empty widget, I prefer The Empty Widget on the Play Store since it has zero permissions and nothing superfluous. You can then use the hide apps function to hide the icon.
In order to modify the QS you will need AOSP Mods which requires Magisk and LSPosed. The Xposed version is the minimum, but if you download the Full version it will come with overlay themes to allow you to remove the navbar, change fonts, theme the QS, and change the system icons style.

Does this method to hide the searchbar widget move the icon drawer down to fill the gap?
Not seen anything on the stock launcher that makes it worth putting up with the limitations. Even when mods are used, it's still clunky and limited (for example, you can't change icons for individual apps).
Nova for me, far better and it does everything the stock launcher does and more. I've always found some people being desperate to stick with stock a bit strange.

With the Pixel Launcher mod you can change icons for individual apps while using the stock Pixel Launcher.
I've used Nova, Lawnchair and Hyperion for years and years but am currently using the stock Pixel Launcher with the Pixel Launcher mod to change icons and a Substratum theme to get rid of the gesture pill. Not desperate, just a personal preference. I guess I would fall into the strange category
Wich substratum theme are you using?
Can you had some screenshots?
Thx

No, you are not removing it but rather replacing it with another widget which is just going to be a blank one.

It is a Substratum theme (FSIM-Version1.apk) for this Magisk mod. You can find it via the Telegram link in that Github repo.
Ahh ok...but needs root
A happy Nova user here, what you want is what you get

I took prefer to do this. Pixel Launcher Mod has something that Lawnchair used to have but no longer does if I'm not mistaken, but the ability to apply multiple icon packs at once pretty much keeps all your icons themed at(I normally have 3-4 applied) all times.
Ok, I checked out the pixel mod again. It offers a lot but still falls well short of making the Pixel launcher an everyday use for me.
For example, you can't get rid of both the top and bottom bars at the same time (not the mods fault, I know). And my main issue with it is that you can't change the grid size so you're stuck with 4 columns and 5 rows which simply isn't enough for me.
So whilst the animations and smoothness are nice, they're not nice enough for me to put up with the stupid limitations Google have put in place.

For what it's worth, the stock Pixel Launcher goes up to 5 x 5.
