Which text-based Launcher are you using with your Kompakt?

I disabled the mudita launcher using this command.

adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.mudita.launcher

The home button takes me to yam launcher now.

Thanks, this worked with OLauncher as well. For anyone else trying OLauncher, be sure to long press the bottom to go into settings and switch it from Dark Mode to Light Mode for it it to be visible. Looks so elegant!

yes this is a good thing

Thank you for this, this launcher meets my needs nicely.

I also use niagara. I set the alphabet part to be hidden and I don’t use it. Instead, I press circle (the button on the mudita itself) and start typing the name of whatever app I want to use. From the home screen, if you touch the far right side of the screen, the alphabet thing will appear and do its wobbly scrolly thing, but I don’t find it difficult to avoid that area.

I use the Before Launcher App. It seems to be very similar to these more open source ones but I do really like it.

I chose this over OLauncher solely because of the file size. It works fine, but sometimes the text shrinks for a moment after going to the home screen. Have you noticed this? Have you found a solution?

@petemeister

default launcher always seems to come surging back

You have to first disable the stock launcher.

It’s a shame that notifications don’t go away after opening them.

with the notification workaround I posted, it allows you to wipe notifications away by reintroducing a notification bar/shade.

@cacklep

Thank you

no problemo!

Thanks for posting the apk! What workaround to clear out notifications do you mean?

I just want to chime in and recommend Minimo Launcher that kohjakob showed me in a different thread. It’s really basic, minimalistic, slim and small. No fuss, just plain text.

Since I haven’t seen anyone mention it: Neat Launcher has notification badges, that work reliably and disappear, once you opened the app. Main annoyance with the launcher is that you have to set “minimum width” in developer settings to at least 380 in order to pin apps, as the “ok” button doesn’t show up otherwise.
