Hello. Is it possible to use nova launcher with standard OEM google clock + weather app? I really like the standard weather .thanks.
Yes, just add the "at a glance" widget to the homescreen. It's part of the stock set of widgets built into the phone.
The stock "at a glance" widget cannot be added to 3rd party launchers, it's part of the Pixel Launcher itself.
"Another widget" imitates the built-in one pretty nicely, though.
I'm using the Google At-a-Glance Widget with Nova Launcher. Just press 'n hold your home screen, choose Widgets, scroll down to Google, over to At-a-Glance, drag to your home screen, vuala! It's Google's very own At-a-Glance. No root, mod, hack, nothing...

That limitation was removed last year. I use it with 3rd party launchers all the time, including right now.

How? I own the Pixel 3 and I'm running Nova Launcher Prime (paid version). I don't have the "At a glance" widget under Widgets.
EDIT: I figured it out. The "At a glance" widget is part of the "Google" app (which I don't have installed), not the Pixel Launcher app.
I use Another Widget from play store on my Pixel 3 using Nova Launcher. It I customizable.

Just got my solar red in. Just wondering what launcher everyone is using. I've always been on apex for the simplicity and stock android feel, but how's the sense launcher on the U11? How's edge sense working with other launchers? And is there a launcher that works with the weather clock widget?
I use Nova Launcher Prime, works great, in addition to Beautiful Widgets app for 5x2 weather/time widget.
Same here, Nova Launcher Prime~
Nova prime
Alternating between Nova Prime and HTC stock. I haven't decided yet........

I'm liking sense. But will probably try nova at some point
I go back and forth between Nova Prime and stock.
I, as well, and or between Sense and Nova launcher. When in Nova launcher, I use gestures to launch Google Now, and that leaves Edge Sense for my two most used apps; Camera and WhatsApp.
But I've been on HTC Sense launcher for quite some time.
I use Nova Launcher as well, theming it to mimic the Pixel Launcher and with he Pixel Icon Pack to make all icons rounded.
Another, lighter option if you like the Pixel UI is Lawnchair. You can use the same icon pack for completeness. And it also supports Google Now integration (so does Nova).
The big difference between the two is that Nova is more customisable, and Nova supports weather in the search widget which Lawnchair doesn't.

You can enable full Google Now integration within Nova Launcher, so that it becomes your left-most home screen.

Funny....I actually did know about that and use it....but as I said...not on Nova now, and I wasn't thinking about that...
If you knew about it, and used it, why did you ...

Because gestures are cool, alright? Sheesh...
I have a question, i want to use Pixel Launcher on HTC U11, got it, installed, everything ik except one thing, i cannot scale it. HTC sense can be normally scale in the settings to make it smaller but it does nto applie to piel launcher. Do you have any idea how can i make it smaller?
The app shortcuts are not popping up while long pressing icons in stock pixel launcher. Im on december patch update. Any possible solutions?
(P.S: I tried clearing the cache for the pixel launcher and I dont want to reset the phone for this issue.)
Im able to achieve the same via Nova launcher. The reason i want the stock launcher is for the "At a glance" widget. So please suggest any alternatives for "At a glance" widget that can be added to 3rd party launchers.
I really like the Date and weather widget that comes stock in the Google Launcher on the phone. However, I've switched to using Nova Launcher because I like a couple of its features better. Is there any way I can get that widget on my homescreen?
Thanks!

Try https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=wangdaye.com.geometricweather and select the oreo widget in that
Guys, try this one, its called chronus (Google Play store). Its free, I just bought weather icons for 1 $. I dont know why, but I cant attach screenshot... But its looks so much better then other apps.

Yes, it is built into the Nova settings. No need to download additional widgets. Just look for the Google search bar options and select the pixel style and enable weather display.
i would love to find the built in digital clock/date widget, i cannot find it in nova launcher, could you tell me how? i don't need the weather as a widget, just the time
Hi all,
I would love the ability to be able to add a simple "All Apps" icon in the center of the dock like the old GEL launcher had. I know that Nova and Action Launcher can do this, but I like the barebones aspect of the Pixel launcher and would like to continue using that. Does anyone know if this is possible? I know there used to be an application in the play store that would add this shortcut to the pixel launcher last year, but that app appears to have disappeared. (I know there are some third party app launchers in the play store, but none of them are blazingly fast)
Only with launcher, sry mate

Best workaround I could find, which is not really perfect but hey see screenshot
Download Nova launcher but don't set it as default. On pixel launcher, add a widget -> Nova action -> app drawer
You may have some few times you come back through Nova homepage this way when pressing home. Give it a try your self.
If I have some time I could see if there's a better way to do it by properly calling the app drawer..
So -- you can make Nova as bare bones as you want to. Any particular reason why you don't want to use Nova, configured to look and feel just like the Pixel launcher? It seems like the best option for what you want.
I know it doesn't replace a button, but tapping the arrow above the dock takes you to app drawer. How do you feel about this?
Do you like the One Plus Launcher ?
I always use Nova Launcher I like the Google integration which I think you can not do with the native launcher ?
Lean launcher or Lawnchair are both better than either.
Nova is better but if the op launcher had the search in the doc like the ones in pixel then i would gladly use op launcher till then Nova ftw.
So, what about the 1+6 launcher? The title of this post brought me here, hoping to get some info on it. Never tried op1 launcher, anything exciting? I see their icon groups in my phone apps, very colorful.
I like the side drawer for widgets on the 1+ launcher, but the search and icon packs in Nova
I use Apex because I prefer a minimalist shell. It is one of the first things I load on to a new phone. I was so glad to come back to that after spending a (horrible) year on an iPhone 8+. That was a Truly Awful Experience. I couldn't even tell you how malleable the OnePlus shell is- I just never tried. Can it be made rather simplistic- removing the search bar, full monochrome icon branding, etc.? Apex is skinnable like Nova is- same skins work for either I'm told.
I prefer to use Nova due to its customized gesture features. I only have 8 folders and no dock on my home screen, so Nova is the only 1 that allows me to dbl tap the home screen to open up dialer, or anything else that i set it to. Something i do often when driving.
Definitely Nova Launcher. By far the most customizable launcher out there and very theme or icon pack works with Nova. Smooth, snappy and if you sing up for the beta program, you get fairly frequent updates with newest stuff all the time.
Nova...
still not replaceable for me

Evie launcher over Holo, Nova and basic oneplus launcher
Try the Evie launcher, if you are like me and want to have most important items on the main home page.
in comparison to the oneplus launcher, you can remove the bottom row icons, which take too much space.
I'd rather have a newsfeed in the bottom to stay up to date, above that a smaller app drawer with more apps to reach quicker with my thumb, and above an agenda and todo widget, with on top time and weather.
And in the upper left a moon phase widget, to know when there will be full moon with all the water in our body getting all over the place making most of us feeling funny
here is a screenshot:

what would you prefer on your home screen, and left and right screen(s)?
Nova Prime...ftw
Lawnchair v2 CI on PIE (rooted). A lot better than OP.
OP launcher is awesome: fast and clean but with some useful features added. I just get nervous about the fact that I can't hide the app names
I am a big fan of Nova Launcher Prime and have always installed this launcher as my first app on my new phone. Since I updated to Pie, no matter what scrolling/App animation I select in Nova, it's not smooth. What I mean is switching/closing the apps are "jittery" and/or bouncy. I have tried switching to different animation speeds in Developer option. The only setting that gives me acceptable animation is at 1.5X which I have never have to use to tame the animation. I tried even switching the animations off but no go. Anybody else feeling that switching from one app to another is not smooth. For example, if I open chrome browser and switch to Gmail-the first screen (with chrome) sort of bounce before Gmail opens. I have tried switching to stock animation in Nova as well but no effect on smoothness. I do use gestures only for navigation. and not navigation buttons.

I've always used Nova in the past on every phone I had, but since I've changed to OnePlus in May, I have to say I haven't missed Nova for a second. OnePlus Launcher is very smooth and everything I need.
Nova Launcher Prime. Can replicate same config between different phones.
NOva since ever....
Must be the first thing i do after buy or flash a phone...
