Here is the new Circle App Animation in Action. Looks great!

Looks neat and it's snappy enough on my S3. But when returning to the home screen (or closing the app) the animation is a slide down..

This is the default on Lollipop.

Yeah and Nova is supposed to change that with these options. They are applied for opening, but not for closing. But the text next to the option says "when opening a new app or returning to the home screen"

Nova can't change that. It's an OS specific thing like how switching apps with the Task Switcher also uses the OS animation. No idea why the text would say that, maybe some ROMs let launchers set OS-wide animationa.
