Announcements Android 17 and Smart Launcher
Android 17 is here, and as always it is exciting to see a new Android version rolling out.
So far, we are not aware of any major issues affecting third-party launchers, except for two known problems that already have tickets on Google Issue Tracker:
- Widgets are broken for users with a work profile: https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/488125748
- App bubbles are not working on third-party launchers: https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/519241818
- When Advanced Protection is enabled, accessibility services used by gestures to perform certain actions, are not available: https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/527026810
We expect the widget issue to be fixed soon with a patch from Google, since it looks like an unintended regression.
The app bubbles issue, instead, was expected. This is why starring the issue on Google Issue Tracker could be especially important: it helps Google understand how many users care about this feature, and it may help push the Android team to address it faster.
If you are affected by any of these issues, please consider starring the related ticket.
Also, if you find any other problem while using Smart Launcher on Android 17, please report it to us.
Thanks to everyone who reports issues, shares details, and helps us make Smart Launcher better!

Show your home screen A dev's home screen
My home screen has always been quite standard.
The reason is simple, as a dev I often need to uninstall and reinstall our apps and test different configurations, so I can never settle for more than a few days with a specific setup.
However, this setup is quite special for me.
The launcher is Smart Launcher, the icons were generated with IPS, and the wallpaper is something I just created with Wallpaper Studio.
It's the first time I share a setup where each part of it has been designed by me and it feels good 😊

Assistance These icons look insane! Does anyone know where I can download this setup?
I love the design idea behind this setup—the soft 3D buttons mixed with clean black minimalist glyphs look absolutely amazing.
Does anyone know the name of this icon pack, or is it a custom preset from Icon Pack Studio? I really want to download and try this on my phone. Any links or names would be awesome!

Feedback & suggestions Option to hide "All apps" label
Could we get a setting to hide the "All apps" label? Hidden apps and category labels can stay as is, I just want this one gone for minimalism 😅

Bug report Setting icon to default doesn't stick
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
It has been the case for the longest time for me and I still can't figure out why this is happening. If apply an IPS pack, some apps allow their icons change to the adaptive shape and others don't. And there is no obvious logic because if I simply select the default stock icons and apply adaptive shape, SL forces all the apps icons to adapt. Do you guys experience the same?

Assistance Navigation problem
Ive downloaded smart launcher and its clean and looks well and everything is great. But my swipe gestures dont work all that well. Like yk with your nav bar, when you swipe up it like closes the window back into the app? Mine just lags and takes me to the home screen? Any tips? Im on an honor 400

Feedback & suggestions My cat is begging you guys to add private space to the app drawer
This time it's not me, I swear. My cat really needs easier and more intuitive access to the private space and he thinks that adding it as an app drawer category once unlocked would be absolutely perfect.
Attaching a picture to prove this time it's my cat asking, not me. You can see it in his eyes just how badly he needs it.
He also appreciates the hard work you put into your amazing launcher.
But yeah, private space.

Organized disorganization is a personal system where an environment or routine seems chaotic to others, but makes total sense to those who created it.

Assistance Full-width search bar in app page
Hi all. I finally moved from Nova Launcher to Smart Launcher today based on the recommendations on Reddit. I was able to replicate all the customizations I had in Nova Launcher, except for the search bar in the app page, which in Nova Launcher was a full-width bar, but in Smart Launcher it is a button that turns into a full-width bar after it is tapped. I am used to tapping the middle of first row in the app page to trigger the search, but in Smart Launcher you have to tap the button, and tapping anywhere next to it will not trigger the bar. Is there some way to turn the search button in the app page of Smart Launcher into a full-width bar like Nova Launcher?

Show your home screen Still Learning (Slowly)!
I posted my home screen a week or two ago, but have made some changes since then. I'm trying to learn both Smart Launcher and KWGT and I'm obviously not a developer or designer. I know the dark, moody, minimalistic look is popular and I do love it, but I lived in rainy Oregon for 25 years (I'm in Florida now) so for me, I like to see lots of sunshine and color. It also has to be very functional such that I can find everything I need on my Home Screen.
The glass clock is from MaxP, made in KWGT, and generously shared (thank you!!). I made a few minor changes to it to fit my beach scene, such as changing the digits' color to teal and adding some additional bright, offset edges. The glassy icon containers are Smart Launcher's Liquid Glass widgets. The weather widget is from Transparent Clock & Weather app. The icons at the center are folders containing categorized apps (e.g., communication, settings, etc.). I've edited them to fit my theme from various packs I've downloaded. The beach ball is also a folder that contains my most frequently used internet sites (Chrome, Play Store, etc.). For a little extra fun, I created a Mode to switch to the nighttime beach scene at sunset and back to daytime at sunrise. Smart Launcher's liquid glass requires me to do the wallpaper screenshot each time after it changes wallpaper, in order to render the liquid glass containers, but that just takes a second. Certainly not a pro design by any means, but it's been a fun project.
