launcher similar to smart launcher - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

There is a flower (extra)screen in smart launcher which i can not get rid off. so i was looking at alternatives similar to smart launcher.
Similar in the sense i want the functionality that it categorizes apps into games,settings.. etc
Hope i could find a solution on xda.

But that doesn't contain automatic cataloging of installed apps.

Buttom bar

Hi there,
Do anyone know if it's possible to remove the Buttom pop-up bar.
I'd like to use WizzBar, but after installing Wizzbar, I now have the default one and Wizzbar poping up :-(
Sorry but no there is no way to remove it.

I am incorrect, I just noticed a new app.
How do you change the icons on this thing (task manager, calendar, world clock etc)? Surely it's configurable ....

That's terrible Are there any mods or anything to get rid of it, or force changes or something? That's pretty weird that they didn't just make it configurable. What's the thinking behind that?
I am just guessing but I don't believe the "mini" apps on the touchwiz taskbar are like regular apps. Regular apps can't be used in a multitasking way like the touchwiz "mini" apps on the taskbar, which is why you can't place your own apps there. I believe Samsung would have to develope more "mini" apps first.
If you get one of the android launchers from the market like launcher pro or adw ex, they each have docks that you can place your own apps on. On adw ex you can even have the dock rise up and disappear like touchwiz's taskbar.

The pop-up touch wiz/apps bar is just annoying I only ever use it for task manager I wish you could not have it and just have tas man as an app or widget. The bar only over pops up when I accidentaly press it when playing a game. It's totally rubbish since the apps are not configurable.
Samsung take it off and/or make it configurable it's the biggest bug bear I have with Samsung tabs.

Download go launcher or launcher ex as they both have lots of custom features including alphabetically sorting apps. If you want to keep the touchwiz look then you can download a custom theme for those launchers.

Okay.. so from what i got, is, in your app drawer, where all your apps are listed, you want them to be sorted alphebetically? Correct?
EDIT: If so, this might be what you are looking for. its free and they have an ad-free paid version

It is possible! But you will need to buy the Prime version and it is not groups, but different tabs where you can sort out which apps go to which tab. . Go to Nova settings ->tray -> traygroups (not sure if this is correct, since I'm running norwegian language)
It is possible. A little time consuming though... yes u need nova prime

Round icons

Hello!
Is there any chance to force the round icon shape on one ui 2.1?
The standard shape looks childish to me and I can't seem to find any good icon pack on the galaxy theme store .
Plenty of icon packs with round shape to download....

Yeah but they suck. Only a few apps have the correct shape,the other ones have a white background and the normal shape.

There are lots of icons packs that work with nova,but I use the stock launcher because I use gestures.
you can try Hex installer https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=project.vivid.hex.bodhi&hl=en
there are a few pixel/Q plugins you can apply that give most rounded icons.. among other things

No they don't. You must be using Samsung's implementation of gestures, I am using Google's gestures .

Seems ok. Do you have to reaply the theme every time you install a new app?
