Hi
This is most probably a stupid question, but on my previous phone, Huawei P20 Pro, I had a vertical row of letters down one side of the App draw just to assist finding apps. Can you do this on the Pixel 5?

Hi there!
proud owner of a 1p1 for 5 hours now.
I really like the feature of swiping to the left on the left-most-screen to trigger the google-now app.
But I hate google now
Do you have any recommendations for others apps which offer this intent, so I can swipe to the left to trigger the alternative app?
I only know one, I have instaled by default, its a bus-fixtures app called "öffi".
Thanks in advance

The op really likes swiping left for access to a particular app. He wonders if there's any other ways to launch other apps using the same technique.

OK... So sorry...
There is a home launcher replacement app called Blur by Klinker Apps that has the GNL look and this option, but it's still in Beta and doesn't have that many pages available.

But take a look, the concept is very neat!
I'm trying to get my dad to get use to android from iOS with a One Plus One. He's using the themer launcher since it's simple. Sadly he said he still likes iOS more.

As the title says, I've noticed Nova Launcher Prime is on sale for the holidays. $0.99 instead of the usual $4.99.
I know a lot of Huawei first time users aren't exactly fans of EMUI so I thought I'd share the news.
@Governa
Nova is the best launcher, but with mate9 direct dial widget doesn't work. Any idea how to fix this on nova or any other custom launcher with direct dial widget support?
Sorry but I don't actually use Nova Launcher. Coming from iOS I find myself right at home with EMUI.
I can only suggest you shoot an email to the developers.
At 99cents it's a steal imo, been using nova Launcher since forever. I don't own a mate 9 yet but I guess I'm giving emui a go, been used to miui for a long time on my note 3 so I guess I could live with emui.

Coming from a device that supported app shortcuts and making those short cuts into their own home screen icons, it's kind of frustrating that this functionality seems to be missing on my Note 8
Nove works for that.

I just used Nova, Lawnchair, Google pixel, and Apex, does not give specific short cuts for the app. For instance XDA labs has a menu option for going straight to the forum. Not seeing it in Nova unless I'm missing something. Lawnchair shows it on my tablet but launchair won't show it on my Note 8.

Did you try adding Sesame Shortcuts?

That worked. Sucks it's not natively supported since we are on Android N

Glad to have helped
Hey guys.
Just a quick question. I saw the S10+ at the store today and saw that it had big icons, which I found to really like.
However, my icons on my Note 8 remain small and I would really want to get those big icons.
Am I missing something? Or is there a way to port the S10s launcher to the Note 8?
Thanks

I'm fairly certain it's a Samsung design choice. I think the difference is intentional from their end. What you can do, however, is install a third party launcher, such as Nova Launcher. With that you can change the size of the icons and the grid layout. You can even apply third party icon packs, which I like to do every so often to make things look a little different and "fresh".
Personally, I am not a fan of the massive icons in the SGS10's UI. I think that the Note 8's icons are the perfect size.
Their is a simple way for big icons

I have a solution for u buddy
Just go to home settings change homescreen grid to 4x5 and appdrawer grid too
U will get so big icons and just keep 4 icons in dock
And to justify the look increase the display size fron settings u will enjoy the one handed look of one ui
My girlfriend have P30pro and Iphone 11 but always was using iphone before so she used to it, and the most uncomfortable on P30 pro for her is notification on the lockscreen. Can i make them to be exactly like on Ios ? Watched some apps on google play but they was not even close so if somebody know what is best will be great. Thanks.

First of all just NO! Why don't use the iPhone if she don't like it!? This is a stupid question, it's not an iPhone it's an Android! So just don't!
And second, look at this.
