[Q] Any other launcher that allows dot-press to apps page?

I was wondering if there was a launcher out there that does the same thing that TWL does where you can bring up your apps, then just press one of the overhead dots to quickly go to that particular page (column) of apps? I was told that LP doesn't have the functionality, & I played with ADW today for a bit, but couldn't find a setting...
Bottom line: me no likey da scroll-y.

If you install SGS Tools there are different variations of Touchwiz. Just go to upgrade stock apps and then upgrade tw launcher.

Yeah, I've already got the updated version installed; was just wondering if there was another launcher out there w/the same functionality. le sigh.

EDIT: Do you want that feature in the app drawer?

If by "app drawer," you mean the screens/columns that you see when you hit the button to bring you to all of your apps, then yes. I'm referring to the dots @ the top of this image:

}
But you aren't the first person to suggest Zeam. Maybe I'll see if that's got what I'm looking for today...
*Edit - tried Zeam, & unless I missed it, it doesn't have it, either.

is there a way to get the s-planner widget on adwlauncher?

The default touchwiz idle screens have a lovely large s-planner widget showing a monthly view. In adwlauncher, and that widget doesn't show up in the list at all. Any ideas on how to get the widget on an adwlauncher Page?

Many Samsung widgets not available on other launchers
The answer is no. Samsung has married(hard-coded) its widgets to the Touch-Wiz interface/launcher and if you don't use Touch-Wiz, you cannot use the S-Planner widget. I personally use Launcher Pro and get Pure Grid Calendar widget. I also have on my dock a shortcut to the S-Planner.

I'm trying out Zeam launcher right now and have created an S-Memo shortcut using desktop visualiser, and dropped it into the dock. It works! And I have a 7 icon dock now, is that cool or what!

[Android 4.2+] Edge Launcher 2.0 - major update: fast gesture launcher/app switcher

Happy to share the result of my hard work over the past few months. Edge Launcher (previously known as Edge Quick Actions) is a fast gesture launcher and app switcher that you can access from the edge of your screen anytime.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Edge Launcher allows you to access more than a dozen quick settings and toggles, switch between recent apps very fast and open your favorite apps. All of this is done with one single touch, without lifting your finger from the screen (there is also an option to open it with a quick swipe from the edge of the screen).
This is a major update from the previous version, with card UI and nice animations, as well as material design for the app settings. I'm also working to add more functionality such as adding contacts, shortcuts and theming support!

Happy to hear your thoughts and feedback. Thanks!

What launchers support landscape mode (with the dock at the bottom of the screen)?

I'm one of the few people who almost always holds the phone in landscape orientation; even when talking on the phone with Bluetooth... especially, with the large high-res screen of the Note 9. I'm able to do this with One UI (and also the older launcher on Oreo)... however, I'd like to try others with more customizations.
The first launcher I tried was Nova Prime. To my surprise, it now has an arbitrary limitation which does NOT allow having the dock at the bottom of the screen in Landscape mode... even if there's room for it. Instead, it puts the dock at the right edge of the screen... which looks really bad IMO. I used to be able to do this with Nova launcher, even on my old Note 4. Not anymore.. I've already confirmed this limitation with other Nova users who use a Note 9.
For those of you that are using 3rd party launchers (other than Nova), I'm curious if you could please confirm that you get the dock at the bottom of your landscape screen ...like the screenshot below. I'm thinking about Action Launcher.

Wrong launcher after closing all apps in Android 11

Overnight my phones got upgraded to Android 11.
Normally I use Pear Launcher (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pearlauncher.pearlauncher)
However, after getting this upgrade, when I go to task switcher/manager (3 vertical lines button) and hit "Close all" button, it brings me to Samsung's default launcher, not my Pear Launcher.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
If I hit "home" button Pear Launcher appears.
With Android 10 it never acted like that, it would always switch to my Pear Launcher.
Anybody experiencing this? Any way to fix/change this?

Had the same problem with Nova j launcher after update yesterday. Verified that Nova settings had default Laucher set to Nova, but still went back to stock.
Then, one time when swiping home (I use gesture nav), it gave me that screen where it asks which launcher and has options for "one time" or "always". After choosing Nova and selecting "always", it's worked flawlessly since.
Maybe try unchecking any default and then going home. That should bring you to that screen.
Good luck!

Yup, I switched default launcher to Samsung and then back to pear launcher and it seem to have fixed this problem.
