For those who don't know, Nova got sold to an analytics company a while back. It's a spy app now.
I remembered that I bought the launcher at 0.99 USD but not when. I checked my emails and it was 8 years ago. I think the last time I used Nova launcher was around 6 years ago.
It's unfortunate that they got sold to an analytics company. It was an good launcher
I've been using it the whole time across dozens of devices. I love it. I guess I need to look into switching.
There's never good news. Guess I gotta try and find a new launcher that isn't ass. Update: did some googling of the time line and my Nova launcher hasn't been updated since Dec of 21 ,before the acquisition, so it should be good.
If you find something good please tell.
I was just thinking "it's refreshing that you only have to pay for it once, instead of it being a live service." I guess there's always a catch.
It doesn't send anything beyond telemetry, wich can be tured off, but yes you shouldn't pay for it.
Have you seen the network analysis? It didn't make sense for an analytics company to buy it unless they're going to use it for data. I know the sesame plugin is sketchy, too.
Whats an alternative then?
I like action launcher. I've tried Lawnchair 2 but it's still in beta after like 7 years. Honestly haven't found any launchers that are still actively updated that aren't shitty. The others seem to be either lacking features, customization or are overly simplistic.
Unfortunately nothing much. I tried Lawnchair, ADW (on a whim, hasn't been updated in almost a decade), and action launcher. Went with AIO again lol.
I hear LightningLauncher got open sourced! Pierre isn't working on it anymore though; there's a fork being worked on here.
