Lawnchair doesn't seem to allow gestures on icons/folders, so it's a non-starter for me. I use swipe actions all the time to launch apps. Like, tap for SMS, swipe down for WhatsApp, swipe up for Signal; or tap to open a folder of utilities, swipe up for Root Explorer and down for KeePass. I want to be able to launch all of my frequently used apps with 1 action from my homescreen. If anything, I'd like a launcher that allows even more swipe actions (right & left).

I just want a full app drawer and a single homescreen with shortcuts/folders that can be overloaded with swipe actions. IDGAF about widgets or search. If I need to type anything, I'm doing too much work to launch an app.

    This is the key missing piece for me too. All of the things I use on my phone are accessible through the five icons on my dock. Whether it's a simple swipe to open another app or swipe to open a folder, none of the "alternatives" have similar functionality.

    I don't want to search for things, I want at most two taps to open the app I want.
