Which non-standard / unpopular launcher do you use? (self.android)

Hey c/Android,

We always keep hearing about Nova Launcher, Smart Launcher, Niagara etc, and I wondered how many of us here are using unpopular or underrated launchers.

In my case, I've been using AIO Launcher ever since I got my Fold 4, as it's one of the few launchers that have proper foldable support.

AIO bucks the minimalist trend and instead focuses on an all-in-one approach. It's USP is it's plethora of built-in widgets, including music controls, integrated notifications, emails, RSS feeds, timers, dialer, and more. For advanced users, it allows you to control the launcher via Tasker, and you even create your own widgets using LUA scripts!

So, do you use a non-standard/unpopular launcher, if so, which one and what's your setup like?

So apparently the one you linked is indeed fake, it's made by someone called "ManDeep". The real Evie launcher died three years ago and was taken off the Play Store, and there have been a few fakes since then.

I would advice removing your link ASAP and uninstall it from your device, who knows what permissions you've granted it and what nefarious activities it's been upto...

Damn, this almost gave me a heart attack as I am currently using Evie.

It seems that I got it when the app was still up in the Play store and seems legitimate, though.

Right, I remember something being with it, I thought Google Play store was just being weird for me. Thanks. Removed the link. I never had this version installed.
