Google Now Launcher

Google Start is a proprietary product from the software giant for the Android platform, which is a convenient and functional launcher, originally created for Nexus devices, but then, after proper optimization, it is declared to work correctly on other mobile devices running on “Green Robot” starting from version 4.1. The launcher is a visual interface through which the user interacts with all the features of the system. After installing this tool, not only the workspace of the device and icons will be transformed, but new useful options will also become available, for example, the “ OK, Google” service. However, the main purpose of this launcher is to instantly call up a personalized Google Now search, which can be accessed with just one movement – a swipe to the right,

Folders with icons are now slightly larger, which affects the convenience of interacting with them. No significant changes have been implemented in the main menu, unless the developers decided to get rid of the Widgets tab, which, by and large, was not particularly necessary. Stylishness and “lightness” – these are the main merits of the new launcher from Google.

Changes in Google Start and the creation of additional workspaces have been affected – they will become available only if there is no free space on the existing tables, that is, unfortunately, you cannot adjust their number at your own discretion. The decision, I must say, is controversial, it is for him that many users criticize this launcher. But the ease of changing the wallpaper pleases – after a long press on the screen, the corresponding settings appear with an additional category “Widgets”. The launcher settings themselves consist of only a few key tabs: search parameters used on the device, search using voice, personal data, enabling or disabling notifications, as well as help telling about all the features of the tool – the differences from the standard options are minimal,
