Question Choosing your recents launcher - Google Pixel 7 Pro

Hi guys, running root on my P7P. Using nova as my home launcher for years now but my recents when using it are not as good as with the stock launcher. Is it possible to force the recents to use the stock launcher if you're rooted? Thanks

Can you point what is the difference
I use nova as well.
Tried with setting Pixel launcher as default home. Can't figure out any difference in Recents

Hide Icon on Menu ICS?

Hello everybody.
It's possible to hide an icon on iCS ? (Menu Launcher)
Software ?
Thanks.
Not possible without modding the launcher. There are launchers that have the app hiding feature though. Give GO Launcher EX a try.

No, but I've been loving ADW Ex with ICS. TeslaCoil's Nova Launcher is a modded ICS launcher and may provide the function you're seeking.
That app is in the themes and apps forum.

Nova prime installed - where is the magazine?

i installed Nova prime and im trying to set a shortcut on nova settings like swipe up then open a certain apps. the problem is i cannot find the magazine! where the hell is it now?
I believe Magazine is part of the TouchWiz launcher. When you switch launchers, you lose the ability to use features built into the stock TouchWiz launcher. If you want Magazine back, return to the TouchWiz launcher.
Right, unfortunately you can't have your cake and eat it too.
What would be great is if Flipboard had a widget that was customizable such that one could add a single tile on any launcher for a specific site/feed and still flip through that feed on the widget itself. If they had this we could use Nova or other launchers that support widget resizing, margin control and overlap to recreate magazine UX, at least with regards to flipboard content.

Is there a way to use an icon pack with the stock launcher?

I just rooted and installed magisk. I love everything about the stock launcher except the icons. I love the icon pack on the play store called MaterialOS, so is there a mod to apply that pack to the stock pixel launcher? I saw some modded pixel launchers in magisk but they are not the same as the pixel 3 launcher. I've searched for info on here but haven't found a solution. Thanks for any help!
Just install lawnchair or nova launcher. they have the exact same features as the pixel launcher (and much more). Plus, they have proper icon support. No magisk modules needed.
Lol so I guess that's a no...
Has nova implemented pie recents yet?

The recents menu is set by the OS, not the launcher. If you have pie, you will have pie recents.

If you got magisk use module "rootless pixel launcher "
Long press home
Icon pack

Launchers that have a built in recents/overview tab

I want to disable the Samsung experience on my S8+ (on one ui) so I can use only a custom launcher. Sadly If i do this it removes the ability to use the recent tab. I know in android pie some launchers are able to have their own recents tabs, does anyone now how to use these?
No root please!
look at Nova launcher

Shortcut App that lets you change icons?

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
