About this app
For Android users who want a cleaner, more controllable home screen, Nova Launcher earns its spot with deep customization, a flexible app drawer, and search tools that go beyond basic launchers. It also supports icon themes, custom light and dark themes, and backup and restore for easier setup changes.
The tradeoff is that some of its most advanced options belong to Nova Launcher Prime.
This page lists a verified APK package for direct install. Confirm the package name com.teslacoilsw.launcher before installing.
