I am trying to find a launcher with no desktop grid, so i can place apps anywhere i want. And also to have stackable widgets, so i can place apps over widgets, but im not having any luck. So i came here to the pros in hopes that someone knew of a launcher that has both of those features in 1. I love customizing my phone
Edit: I forgot to mention that the launcher should also support custom icon packs!
anyone?

I don't know, not spending $15 on a launcher. Those are the two that came to mind when I read your post, though.

Hi, as the title, i would like to add empty slots, to spread the apps out a little, rather than having 16 on one page, you could do this using the stock launcher, so why cant i do this on GO Launcher EX , can anyone shed some light?
Thanks

Oh my bad, sorry! I just thought id post it here cos its themes/apps related!
It's weird isnt it, the stock launcher has the ability to do it, but for some reason GO Launcher EX doesnt
EDIT: I have posted in the right section now.
I am pretty sure you can do this be changing the grid settings in the app drawer.

Oh yes this 3d icon is reallly annoying ...
This launcher is also consuming a lot of RAM men! it is always between 35-65mb!
Is it just me or do you guys have the same?

For those of you who have tried both, which one is faster, smoother and more responsive?
Nova seems to be the fastest if you change the scroll and animation speed but unlike Nova, Apex offers some basic swipe gestures without needing to pay for the pro version.

No... If I am guessing we are thinking same features... Nova prime is really good stuff. You can change theme colors and has tons of swipe features....

Anyone know how to get the stock TouchWiz clock with weather back with Nova?
deleted
the latest nova beta is based off the jellybean launcher and is fantastic. on cm10, it's absolutely the fastest and most fluid launcher i've ever used. i bought the pro version and have not regretted it. there are more gesture options than Apex the last time i checked.
i've had both and i find nova to be smoother than apex. too bad i paid for the pro version of apex which i loved on the GS2.
This may have been answered elsewhere, so I apologize if it has.
Do y'all know if icon packs for Apex (specifically the flat icon pack) work in Nova? I'm willing to hand over the $1 for an icon pack, but only if I know it will work with my launcher.

Icons made specifically for Apex won't work...such as the flat icons by mitchs.co
I know this because I have the same set. The only option is to get the ADW or Go Theme set but those aren't as up to date like the Apex one

Thanks for the heads up. Maybe I'll just buy the .zip straight from mitchs.
Gonna have to side with Apex. Best launcher available.

Also, Nova supports icon packs from multiple launchers. I've had zero problems with Lustre.

Cool, what do you like about the Launcher?
If it's the slide effect you like, you will find it in several different launchers these days. Im pretty sure ADW and Apex launcher has them. Maybe even GoLauncher?
The rest is just a live wallpaper and icon setup
Edit: OOPs... a wallpaper and a widget. I don't know how he got it on the lock screen though.
Bazooka launcher perhaps?

Could also be another lock screen replacement like Widget Locker etc.
