Are there comparable alternatives? I never found another launcher that I like as much.
I switched to Lawnchair 2. It's free, open source and quite versatile. Probably not as much as Nova, though it's been a few years since I last used it.
Lawnchair 2 isn't available for my phone since the app is too old, and I'm only on Android 12.
Edit: this only applies to the Play Store version
That's odd, I'm on Android 14 and it works just fine here.
Very strange. I get a big notification and everything.
I see, I installed it through Aurora on my device. But you can just download the apk from their Github or https://lawnchair.app/ instead. Only Google PlayStore seems to have disabled the download even though the app still works perfectly fine.
That would explain it. Thanks!
