This launcher is very versatile. It has just enough customisation options. It strikes me as a "Nova LITE" launcher. it just needs a bit of refinement. My only real complaint is that of creating grouped folders on the home screen. It is a bit of a pain. Just pay the small amount of money for the fully unlocked version. If you like Nova or Lawnchair, this is a viable alternative.

Overall, it's a good launcher. If you use 3 button navigation, the 3rd button (right) won't do anything about 2/3 of the time, which is very annoying. I have to switch back to the Pixel Launcher, then relaunch Pear to get it to work again. Hoping that gets fixed SOON! Otherwise, I wish there was an option to adjust the space between the home screen icons and dock because that's wasted space (esp. if you don't want the arrow). I'd definitely buy the pro version if these fixes/updates are made.

I really want to love this, but it is missing one critical feature for me. There is no way to sort folders in the app drawer. Folders appear in the order created. I really need my folders to be sorted alphabetically like the apps are. If you don't care about folder sorting, this launcher is a great choice. It offers a great balance between customization and performance. It is one of the fastest launchers I have used without feeling like I am missing a feature or customization.
