After Working on it alone for a year, the founder and original developer of Nova Launcher Kevin Barry has stopped working on Nova Launcher and the open sourcing efforts. More Info: https://teslacoilapps.com/nova/solong.html

However I was ultimately asked to stop working on Nova Launcher and the open sourcing effort. Nova Launcher has been an incredible project and has an incredible community. I'm grateful for the years of support, feedback, and enthusiasm. Kevin Barry September 6, 2025

Yep. I forgot, I really need snap to half grid too.

And actively use swipe actions on app icons.

Things are super messy cause I haven't finished updating stuff after changing phones and a couple things are broken while I make changes, but I can't do this with any other launcher, sadly

    I can't tell if I love or hate the way your phone looks lol... It looks chaotic af

    Edit: It looks like the gui of your character's in-game PDA device in an indie sci-fi game

    Lol, that's okay, it's very much to my own preference, and it's a lot less overstimulating when you're the one who placed everything and labored over every little corner. A lot of it is designed to help me stay on top of managing my sleep disorder

    Styling-wise it's inspired by the in-show ui elements from cowboy bebop, and some typography from ghost in the shell
