What else do you expect?

Perhaps a more "complete" answer.
Generic widgets (the stock Android widgets and most of the ones available through the play store) will run on any launcher.
Vendor specific widgets (HTC, Samsung, Motorola, LG, Sony) will only run on the vendor's stock launcher (almost always).
Aftermarket launchers (Nova, Apex, ADW, etc.) will only run their own built-in widgets.
Hopefully this clears things up for you.

I've had my S6 almost from day 1. I'm a 40 something male in the UK and have yet to see a theme in the theme store I'd want to use. A few reasons why:
1) why in the UK do I only see free themes, where are the marginally better paid for themes that are advertised on the web ?
2) why are the themes largely aimed at children? pinks, gummy bears, carousels in pink?!?! for goodness sake Samsung give the more mature / grown up user a theme they won't be embarrassed to use !!
3) the themes that I would consider using at a push to alleviate the boredom of the default screen seem to largely have appalling icons. Are the theme developers all teenage kids ??
All I want is something "grownup", professional looking. Samsung why do you make it so hard for the more mature user ?!?!

Try Dark material theme from Cambunch which has stock Android icons or Weyo/Cherry Red themes from Hiten Soni.
U can always use 3rd party launchers like Apex or Nova launcher and use any kind of icon packs that suit you in the Play Store. 3rd party launchers are much better than stock S6 TW launcher!
That's what most of us

Well there are many good themes available now at Samsung Store
Samsung is yet to add support for paid theme for Europe & many other countries which they are working on for now paid themes are only there for 6 countries
If you want u can always use some VPN app and purchase themes from say country like USA for example
Btw for all the query i suggest u to post in Q&A there it ll have more users see & reply

So, I haven't rooted my Mi Mix yet, haven't seen much of a reason to, but I know I will eventually. I received mine stock, so I had to install Google services. I like the themes on the phone, but is there a way I can buy new themes? And when the phone gets rooted ill install epic rom, is the theme store on epic?
Epic ROM has the global theme store in which all themes are free. The Chinese theme store on the Chinese ROMs have a bigger amount of themes and also has themes that are paid. You can also obtain themes from the MIUI Forum. Remember if you do get themes from outside the theme store, then you need to have a designer account to apply them. You can also use the MIUI 8 Tweaks module to bypass the designer account requirement for third party themes.
Hi does someone knows how to buy themes without a chinese card ? IS there any way ?? Some themes are wonderful ! And it's not possible to buy them without chinese bank acount....??? If someone has an Idea or a hack.... Thanks
Same here I wish I can flash the Indian itheme apk but it's not accepting so sad ?.

Hello,
I'm about to buy my new Xiaomi mi 9 but before I do I'm trying to find a ROM for it that has the same type of launcher as Samsungs OneUi.
I have been using Samsung for a few years now and have grown to love the launcher it uses but after seeing what MIUI looks like I'm not sure I want to leave Samsung.
Is there a Rom that has this sort of theme? I don't like the pixel launcher because it has the google search at the bottom. the apps draw is vertical and not being able to create folders in the app drawer.
From what I can see all the Roms available look like the pixel launcher or lawnchair.
Thank You
You can get Samsung's OneUI Launcher from APKMirror.
