Launcher W/Google Now Like Page For Widgets?? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there a launcher out there that is up to date and allows me to slide over like google now does but allow me to use that page for widgets? I basically want a launcher that is just like the new 5.0 lollipop launchers out there but google now will be replaced with a page for me to place widgets. Kind of like what Blur Launcher does.

[Q] Is there a 3rd party launcher that will let me add app drawer pages?

My sister loves her SGS2 and I suggested that she use Go Launcher as her default launcher. She likes the customization available with Go Launcher, but misses the ability to add app drawer pages that was possible with the stock launcher. Is there any launcher that has this feature?
Bump.
Something like Xperia S launcher?

[Q] Is there a way to get a widget to stay on screen when scrolling?

I really like the look and feel of some of the Google Now inspired themes and launchers, like SF Launcher. Particularly I like how different elements of the homescreen scroll independently. ie there is a top bar that is static and the widgets and apps scroll separately.
Is there a way to replicate this functionality on Nova/Apex Launcher or any of the other standard launchers? Specifically is there a way to have a widget that stays on screen when scrolling through pages of apps?

[Q] Widget Page app?

Is there a widget which allows for Blinkfeed/Windows Phone-like widgets on one home screen? I have a few widgets I would all like to be on the same page so I can scroll down and use them all like Google Now but not lose normal functionality or switch launchers.
Thanks

Any way to enable TouchWiz Exclusive Widgets in other Launchers?

Hi,
I really love the look of the TouchWiz Widgets-
I found several touchwiz exclusives...
- Weather
- Calendar
- Location
- Magnifier
And I really love my Action Launcher 3. But I cannot have those widgets on Action Launcher...
Of course, I can install the 3rd party apps. But Weather widget will not be coherent with the weather in my lock screen and edge screen.
I am not going to get the Magnifier widget.
I googled a lot but I couldn't find the solution. Anyone knows how I can bring the widgets to the 3rd part launchers?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Unfortunately this is generally not possible, as the widget hooks into the launcher itself and probably does not present itself as available to other launchers the way a normal widget does. I wish it were possible but I'm afraid it's not.

I see. I decided to use Action launcher with 3rd party apps...
By the way, I am from GS3 and I really love the TouchWiz Calendar. It has weather icons inside.

Weather Widget in Non-Samsung Launcher

I really like the default clock & weather widget in the Samsung Experience launcher. But, even though Samsung has come a long way with their launcher, I prefer Nova. I had heard, somewhere, there's a way to get a Samsung Experience clock/weather copycat widget to use in a 3rd party launcher, but I can't seem to find it in the Play Store.
So, what do you "other launcher" users use as your favorite weather & clock widget? Do any of you know the "copycat" widget I'm referring to?
Zooper widget, pixup theme
