I often forget that I use Action Launcher. It has a feature that I love called Covers where an app icon is both an icon and a folder depending if I tap or swipe it.

I still miss my smart launcher 3. It was just so smooth, tidy and easy to navigate, but unfortunately pretty much every 3rd party launcher breaks on foldables

Interesting. That's the one thing I would miss the most about bailing on Nova. I'll have to check this out.
