I’m looking for something as close to Nova Launcher as possible.

    I switched from nova to niagara and I love it. It is very different, but if you give it a shot for a few days you might just fall in love too.

      Niagara Launcher is great. I used to use Nova, but found myself only using one home screen page and only like one widget. Niagara does take some getting used to, but I also suggest giving it a try.

        I can echo this. I used Nova for close to a decade, and everybody talked about Niagara so I tried it a couple of times but it didn’t stick. I guess it took three tries for me, because I realized that the one-handed navigation for any app, the ability to easily find things alphabetically, and the fact that I could have my home screen apps pinned to the top of the list all make it way cleaner

        Agreed. I’ve been using it for years now, and it just feels like what a launcher should be. I’m surprised it’s not been adopted as the default, or even an available mode, since it’s so intuitive.
