So i just got a Oneplus Open (the folding phone) and have been test driving launchers to see what works well.
Call me crazy, but Microsofts launcher they made for the Duo is actually really solid. You can adjust the dock to pull out like a mini app drawer while still having a full app drawer (with folder support), and each of those is independent (you have have a dock be like 12 columns wide and 3 rows tall while your homescreens are something more normal like 4x4). Individual icon changes too, which is always a big deal for me. And you can even do things like have the app drawer show the defauot icons while your homescreen is all custom icons.
It even has a universal search bar like nova does, and you can toggle what it searches for (apps, documents, web, all of the above). I was worried it would force me to use microsoft stuff to get the full use out of it, but nope.
Im honestly incredibly impressed. Its almost as featured as the free version of Nova launcher.
You'd be equally impressed to know how much of every single click and tap and app launched and app hovered over Microsoft tracks. Would make Nova tracking selling feel... Benign. They track their operations from the calculator app, FFS.
