I stopped using third party launchers since they began to suck because the full screen gestures, I think since A11.
What issues do you have?
Short unresponsiveness to other inputs when you return home while having gesture navigation turned on. It's very annoying.
Yeah, this pretty much.
Has this been fixed in more recent versions of Android perhaps? Not experiencing this on the S21U or S23U.
I'm using a Pixel 7, so pretty sure I'm on the newest version.
They're a lot better in Android 13 from my experience
Not for me mate, nothing beats smoothness of Pixel Launcher, or whatever stock launcher that comes with the ROM... Or that uses Quickswitch for custom ROMs.
Yea no 3rd party launcher is as smooth as the default ones still, but it's noticably better than it was when I tried a couple years back
Not being able to remove the Google search bar on the pixel launcher is a dealbreaker to me
Exactly, the small lag from multitasking on home that many people were complaining about is gone in A13. Not many people talked about that though.
I just checked. It's still there
That's weird, maybe it's a pixel issue. I've had no lags ever since updating to android 13. Here's a video of it https://giphy.com/gifs/KzsTFd0JIvCc9MWI52
QuickSwitch used to be the perfect fix for this but basically no launchers other than Lawnchair wanna integrate it and Lawnchair is kinda dead π΅βπ«
Yeah I know, I think Pixel Launcher Extended uses it, that's why it behaves so great.
