well, I've been testing it and goes very well, some suggestions and some doubts...
1 - Suggestion, will be nice a donation button instead of the ads at the bottom of the screen
Doubts
1 - How can I add icon to the main screen or only admits widgets?
2 - I put a clock widget and have 2 sizes, total screen or bare minimum
3 - I was searching but until now I didn't see how much memory takes the launcher on the phone
Issue
Sometimes I must enter to an app to put it on favorites later, sometimes even doing that I can put it in favorites.
Very pro! I love the app hub! With a donation button on settings instead of ads, will be very nice!

Thank you AgustinH for your suggestions and feedback, really appreciated.
Answer to suggestion 1: I'll put such an option in coming updates to remove ads.
Answer to doubts:
1- Currently you can only add widgets to the Idle screen, where you can minimize and hide them, the purpose of that to enjoy the back ground you have set, and that's why I implemented Homescreen Apps Hub to add apps and folders.
2- You can resize the widgets all you want vertically and horizontally, and the beautiful thing that you can set different size and position for both portrait and landscape for each widgets. There's a resize handle on the bottom right of each widget.
Symbian Launcher remembers the state (minimized / maximized), size and position for each widget in both portrait and landscape and when it's maximized and when it's minimized. Basically it's up to you to arrange them the way you want.
3- I believe you need a third party application for that. But in general I designed Symbian Launcher to be moderate between the usage of memory and processor based on the nature of each feature and how frequently it will be used.
Again thank you and please explore it more and let me know how it goes.

Sure! I tried in Nougat, now I'll test in Marshmallow
"Sometimes I must enter to an app to put it on favorites later, sometimes even doing that I can put it in favorites. "
I missed this, could you please explain it more. Do you mean that you can't drag apps from [Installed Apps Menu - The one with search feature on top] and drop it inside [Homescreen Apps Hub]?
There are too many advertisements.

Awesome! Thanks!
Hello! I LOVE the last update. Something I noticed un my daily driver (LeEco Le Max 2), is that the Launcher doesn't work properly in the multitask. As you can see in the screenshots, for example if I go to the clock and then go yo multitasking yo close apps you can see that doesn't appear the main screen, just appear the last app I used.
Edit: How many favourites can I add on the app hub? 4? I can't add more, even if I put some apps in folder

Sent from my x32 using the licking write method....man I am thirsty now!
Its there a way to put all the apps in the app drawer in alphabetical order? Mine is for the most part, but some of my apps aren't in order.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Decided to unfreeze Go Launcher today after LauncherPro got stuck in an FC loop on me. I gotta say, this launcher is coming along really well since I last played with it a few weeks ago. With scrolling and resizable widget support now implemented, it's at a point I'm going to try it as my main launcher.
So far I like the speed and polish.
My only issue thus far is that when switching to landscape mode with a 5x4 layout, the widgets tend to overlap each other a bit. LauncherPro has managed to correct this, but Go Launcher does redraw the layout switch much faster.
-edit-
One other thing I've noticed: if I long-press the menu button to bring up the search screen, Go Launcher crams all the widgets from the current screen (including the dock) into the half-screen space visible above the keyboard (using HTC_IME), and I can't get the search textbox to actually appear in order to perform a search.
This launcher is ok but lags sometimes on the app drawer I have now started using adw launcher ex my God it is so good.
An excellent one, except for the fact that it doesn't have its own widgets (Messages, Mail, Facebook, People, and Twitter), unlike LauncherPro.
I'm running them both now, hopefully the op does include these in the next update.
Edit: Some snapshot to illustrate what I'm talking about.
but can u change the Dock to custom docks besides the 2 options it gives
Sorry if this is already included but I have a suggestion.
Ive always though a great idea for a launcher would be some sort of interoperated system to separate games and apps from each other.
Maybe a left swipe would bring up your games selection and right would bring up your apps.
Now I know you can do this manually by adding the icons to the left and right panels of a launcher but some sort of system for adding them upon installation would be good also.
I like it, would be nice if the "icon pop-up menu" could be assigned to a swipe movement as well as long press does'nt work all that well on all phones.
And I for one likes that it does'nt have a bunch of bloat such as widgets.
Direct uninstalling from appdrawer like the TouchWiz launcher from Samsung does would be cool.
Of course it would acquire root..
cant wait to try this!
Tried it today, I think it's a launcher with loads of potential. If this can turn out to be the MIUI experience in a launcher app it will be awesome. Just some suggestions for going in that way:
- App icons in uniform shapes, this is wat MIUI does: Take the app icon, and put it in a nice rounded shape automatically. It creates the iPhone effect and it looks great. May be hard to realize in a launcher.
- Grid placement of widgets and apps: In MIUI, you get to see a grid on each homescreen so you have an idea of where the app/widget is placed, not just somewhere on that screen.
- apps always on homescreen: Again, very much iPhone-like. Apps will be placed on the homescreen after install and can't be removed. No app drawer is needed.
Of course, all these things should be able to get turned on/off in the preferences section. Again, this app has so much potential, try to get some inspiration from sense, iphone and MIUI!
Looking forward to hearing from you
Yeah I like that idea, and maybe after installation of a app you get to choose if it was a app or a game and then it assigns it to a specified section of launcher
Just installed it on my Unlocked Streak with Froyo. Working very good till now.
When you set the app drawer to vertical scrolling it's way smoother then horizontal imo, been using this for the past two weeks.
I just started playing around with this and the only thing that I can suggest is Widget Overlapping. It isn't extremely useful for many widgets, but is nice to have...especially for SiMi Clock Widget.
Edit*
Also some way to Export/Import settings. It would be helpful for those of us that like to try different setups without having to redo everything.
Hi,
I installed the launcher on my Galaxy S. I't a great app until now, it has almoust all the cool things from launcher pro and plenty of extra cool things.
My request and probably many other users too is a backup/restore feature. I hate to spend hours to customize my homescreens and app folders and after a ROM reinstall to have to do it again (I have an android blog and I have to reintall the phone many times to test roms and make reviews).
Thanks

Yup. please think about this option. Really needed.
Works perfectly on KaosFroyo v38 w HTC Eris phone
The only issue I see besides backup of settings is the long time to load when adding a shortcut to the dock or the window screen... but that happens on Launcher Pro as well.... :| why not load the App Drawer instead or something? [yes, the faster method is currently going into App Drawer and dragging a few times to the screen.] or have an option to disable it as sometimes we do hard press accidentally [or when lag appears]
Looking Good!
Also like the Task Killer built in to App Drawer. Resizing Widgets works exceptionally well (feature supported free as well!).
Very similar to LP in many respects.
Only negative, I could not seem to use a Custom Dock!
(perhaps I overlooked something here in my brief usage).
Well done to the developer.

Quick Question
Hi-
I love this launcher! Congrats on it taking off and thank you for all you provide this community.
I'm currently not using go launcher but I really miss it. I started using Multi-picture Live Wallpaper so I could have different walls on different screens but it did not want to play nice with Go Launcher. Switching from screen to screen was super choppy and would often freeze half way through the transition until I nudged it with my finger. Do you know of any issues that would keep GL from working well with live wallpaper? Also, I know this supports resizing and scrollable widgets, but any chance of allowing widget overlapping? Before I ran into the live wallpaper problem, I found that to be the only thing missing compared to the "others" out there.
I truly feel you have something AMAZING in the works here. I was so bummed when I ran into this little kink as I hadn't used a 3rd party launcher for several months but decided to give this a try. For me, the overall package is ten times better than the "other two" out there. When this has widget overlap and smooth muti pic, I'll be back! Thanks again!!
+ option to hide home screen icon
+ option to hide recent and running.
I have this launcher for quite some time, and I am very happy with it.
Why outing yourself on XDA only now?
On the first image of your post, I see a calendar. Is this a Go widget? I do not remember having such a widget available. I have the latest version.
Is there an option to remove the recent/running tabs from the app drawer?
It's coming! The calendar widget.

Go Launcher Notifications
Suggestion:
The Notification App for Go Launcher should have the choice of displaying the Total Number of Emails in Gmail or the number of Unread Emails in Gmail.
For example, many people do not delete email from their Gmail account, so currently the notification will display 2345 on the icon. This is useless. FWIW, the ADW Notifier app has an option like this .... take a look at it as this would be a worthwhile addition for Go Launcher.
Any change you will add Maildroid to your notifications?
I am using Go Launcher EX and i love it so far. The thing is that when i want to connect my Galaxy as Mass Storage or through Kies it wont work unless i switch to the default Launcher that came with my phone. Also the battery usage seems to be higher.

This launcher has potential, but it seems rather lacking for something that is going to push an App Store on me just to have a launcher. When Go Launcher did this, I dropped using the launcher due to the vast amount of crap that came with it.
Uninstalled and kept the only thing I ended up liking about the launcher: The Solo Weather app and widget.
Hi
Solo launcher still has the same bugs: 3 pages of dock when you put a theme is applied icons disappear even if we change something in solo settings( on nexus s with various ROM and peax2 stock ROM). And incompatible with dodol's theme. Thanks !

Hi, just go to Solo Play>Themes>Themes>Installed,then you can find your themes out there.
Hi,thanks for your feedback,we will check out later and fix soon.
Hi...i really like this launcher but it`s one thing that bothers me...i can`t make a widget to stretch to margins...i think it needs more that 8x8 grid...really hope to see that fixed...
Have a nice day!
Best launcher ever, its free and really personalizable.
Finally support to install fonts, where can I get more!? Just found one called"Anna Font"
Looks pretty good. I've always wanted to have a "stock" launcher. Will this be always free or are there plans to commercialize this?

Thank u!
Also, I Didn’t like the widgets being hidden to preview at the apps grid.
It shows only like "system apps" and this way I can't preview them.
Is there some way to work at a function for ppl choosing if they want it or not?
just using solo launcher, so far it looks pretty good but sometimes its hard to scroll, i need to swipe across the screen to scroll it. maybe add setting for scroll sensitivity would help

Feature requests and bug reports are most welcome!
WHAT IS IT?
With flippr, your favorite widgets are always a touch away. Access your widgets while using any application or game without returning to the home screen! Check weather when playing your favorite game. Check your stock portfolio when watching a video. Read your tweets when waiting for a level to load in a fullscreen game. Yes, it is all possible with flippr. No longer are your widgets restricted to your home screen. A new kind of multi tasking.
Flippr is a small bubble (PA Halo inspired) that you can interact with which stays on top of all apps - you can access all your widgets with this small bubble. Touch bubble and move finger horizontally to switch widgets in smooth transitions. Organize your widgets into groups (Social, Media, Notes). Touch and move finger vertically to switch groups.
Your current app/game continues to run and you can interact with them even when the widget is displayed! This enables a new kind of multitasking.
Check out the video to see flippr in action:
FEATURES
1. Organize widgets into groups for easy access or put all your widgets in one group - your choice.
2. Works over any app or even full screen games.
3. Widget peek - quickly peek your widgets with a touch. Raise to hide. Simple.
4. Option to hide widget on interaction - change option in Preferences. Option available on a per widget basis in PRO.

Shy Widgets
Some people have said that the widget is hiding as soon as they touch it. Yes, this is the behavior by default. But, you can change it in Preferences. Look for the setting 'Hide widget on interaction' and disable it.
I have changed the post mentioning this.
I like it
I like it so far - animations are smooth on my N5. Took a bit of time to get used to switching groups though.
Can you make the auto hide option setting for each widget? I may need some widgets to hide on touch, but some to stay.
Update available.
I pushed an update to the Play Store:
New in this release:
1. Added option to disable ongoing notification
2. Option 'Hide on interaction' is now configurable for each widget (PRO only)
3. New animation: grow/shrink
4. Usability improvements

Yes, check out the latest update. Per widget setting is a PRO only feature though. Also, I have disabled 'hide on interaction' by default to avoid confusion.
Sorry!!
Sorry, everyone. I messed up slightly with the update.
Some of you may be getting an 'Error adding widget' message when trying to add a widget. I have fixed the issue and have pushed an update to the Play Store and should be available in a couple of hours.
If it is still not fixed, then clearing app data will definitely fix the issue.
Again, I am very sorry about this
you know what would be cool? a pro version option to make the widget hide when tapping on the screen anywhere outside of the widget. sometimes I just can't get the widget to go away by tapping on the Flippr thingy, and I can't tap on the widget itself because that will be interpreted by the widget as me touching it.
this app is a really nice concept by the way.
Edit: and one other idea ill just throw out there... Action Launcher also has capability to put widgets in a sidebar but the concept is a little different - basically, it uses a slide out panel that houses the widgets. this is an exceptionally easy to use format for quickly accessing a set of widgets. it's basically an app sidebar but for widgets. the downside is that the panel blocks a lot of the screen (more than what any one widget does). but like I said, depending on the use case, it's a very easy format to use.
the free version suppose to have 2 groups and 3 widget each but it doesn't work. only the top group appear when scrolling flippr
Settings app FC when i try to add widget to the group.
Device: LG G2

I am working on a swipe to hide option. Tap outside may not be possible as that tap will be for your current app and not for flippr. I'll give it a try though.

Does the second group have at least one widget? Also, try moving the finger up or down a little more. It may just be the case that you did not move enough.

ok, so I just noticed a bit of peculiar behavior and thought I'd pass it along. I'm not complaining, just want to be helpful and see if anyone else can duplicate.
I am using the Pro version on a nexus 10 (stock software). when I set the marker side to "left", I can switch widget groups by touching Flippr and then scrolling up/down. when I set the marker side to "right", I cannot change widget groups by touching Flippr and scrolling up/down...instead, I have to touch Flippr, then slide horizontally to the left side, then scroll up/down. it's as though the vertical scrolling detection is always "looking" on the left side and doesn't adjust to look on the right side when I change the marker side setting in the options.

Is the bubble on the right side?
Snap is a widget drawer, similar to the notifications drawer.
Just pull from one area of the status bar (left, middle or right) to access it. It's basically like the IOS widgets.

Yes, this has been requested a lot. It will be implemented soon.
Great app, only on my phone I have the DPI lowered so the pull down menu is pretty shrunken as well
It's a little quirky on my HTC One M8, but I'm running a custom ROM. I had to change the default from right to left (for the quick pulldown). Might want to set that as default as a metric frak ton of custom ROMs use the right side of the status bar for quick access to the toggles. Then again, those users would have set that and would know to change it. Also, 3 seems like a low limit for the free version, but for my use case it's perfect. If I decide to keep it I'll pay regardless of whether or not I want to add more. Besides, anyone with Zooper could make one widget that does all the things and just use that as one of the three. Me, I'm happy with Google Search, Poweramp, and SoundHound.
When I say quirky, I mean it didn't work right at first, I had to get out of the app and onto my home screen. And then when it opens, it seems to just unceremoniously slam down. It's a great idea, and deserves a smoother animation (I didn't disable them in Preferences) than it's getting.
Overall it's a great idea, and I might just move my big Zooper widget onto Snap so I can use more of my screen for the wallpaper...
edit: Hardly ever works on the HTC lock screen. HTC tied the screen-off wake gestures to the lock screen, else I'd replace it yesterday. Not something I expect you to be able to work past, HTC stuff is generally regarded as a pain in the neck anyway.
Wow! This app is great! Thanks
Brilliant app. Bye bye to my clustered home screen. Is there anyway to be able to scroll on a single widget with one finger?

1. Support to add smaller widgets side by side
2. Single widget scrolling
3. Widget resizing
With these this would be perfect!
Edit.
4. Option to pull drawer from bottom (left-right-center) instead of top of screen

First point will be added in a future update. This has been requested since day one.
Widget scrolling can be done with two fingers in the current version. This will also be updated soon for one finger scrolling.
Widgets dimensions can be changed in preferences. Just tap the widget on the list.

Those ideas were suggested before last update got my phone, instead 4. - that was added after last update.
I already have latest version running and that was kinda huge update. Very much thanks!
Perhaps the option to choose your own background and transparency options and drag in from any location you choose. (ex: from bottom or sides)
otherwise, i'm enjoying it.
Will the modified DPI problem be addressed as well?
