I didn't even bother to install 3rd party launcher on my current device. I had been using Nova ever since I got my first android device.

I used to be super excited about new device releases but I've lost nearly all my interest in smartphone technology. LG V10/V20 was peak smartphone in my opinion and they've been just gotting more and more boring since. My current one most resembles that of some old granny except for the lack of bloatware. I could barely be bothered to look for a new wallpaper.

Back on the old iPhones (like iPhone 4)I used to create animated lock screens for jailbroken devices. I haven't been able to do that in a long time on either Android or iPhone.

Everything is so sanitized and locked down now. Once they took that from me and I couldn't have all my custom themes, I stopped caring about smartphones. I just want shit that works with the minimal leaked data now.
