Discover Killer is an Xposed module that allows you to replace the Google Discover page of your home screen with whatever you want. Tired of garbage clickbait articles and ads? This module can replace the page with your favourite app, RSS feed or other supported 'Overlays'
Examples:
(Replacing the page with Entertainment Space, an RSS feed and launching the BBC News app)
Configuration:
Discover Killer has a number of options to configure the 'overlay' (the panel to the left of your home screen), including:
Replace it with another overlay
Supported overlays include Entertainment Space; which shows TV shows, music and games, a custom RSS feed, and HomeFeeder. See the Wiki page for more info
OR
Launching an app when fully open (any app is supported)
Whether to launch the app fresh from each swipe, or to resume the app
Pick from a list of backgrounds (based on the app's splash screen and icon) to show on the overlay when opened
Pick a colour from your wallpaper to use for Material You
Compatibility:​The module should work on any launcher that has the Discover page. It hooks the Google app rather than the launcher, which allows this. I've tested it on Lawnchair, Nova Launcher and Action Launcher successfully.
This module has been tested and is working with LSposed, but should also work with EdXposed. Make sure you enable hooking for the Google App when enabling the module (it should be pre-selected)
Download:
Version 3.0
Changelog:
Version 3.0:
Another rewrite? Yeah.
Discover Killer 3.0 removes Snapshot, but replaces it with the ability to use custom overlays. These include a simple RSS feed, Google's Entertainment Space (which shows movies, TV shows, games, music and books), or HomeFeeder. See the Wiki page for more info.
There's also a rewritten settings UI which is simpler, and has much less wait time as the preview has gone. Instead, the overlay changes immediately, so simply swipe to go home to view the updated overlay.
Please note: If you're updating from an old version, please uninstall it before installing this new build. You will need to re-hook the Google App (and Entertainment Space if you have it installed), and then reboot for it to take effect.
Version 2.2:
Tweaked Material You theming on Snapshot, with colors now applied to the FAB, bottom pill and some icons. Cards are handled from the server so can't be tinted easily.
Allowed Snapshot to draw behind the status bar and added padding to handle that
Added the ability to bypass the Xposed checks, please only use this if your Xposed install is working but the checks are failing.
Improved the hiding of status bar backgrounds to prevent a grey line appearing on Snapshot

This is pretty cool. I have all the exposed modules installed, but it still gives me a EdXposed error. Which version of EdXposed is it supposed to work with? I'm on a pixel 3xl.
Edit: finally got rid of the errors but the app does not work. I can select an app, but Nova does not show it instead of discover. Let me know what's needed to troubleshoot and help others.

---

Having the same issue as above, everything seems to be in order but Discover persists. Tried using loads of different apps and no luck.

---

Can someone with the above issue please post their xposed log

---

Here it works but I have to swipe it slightly to the right, otherwise I have a white/dark screen with nothing.

Entertainment Space APK and Magisk module attached, as well as builds of HomeFeeder until the developer is in a position to re-create the Telegram channel.

Issue fixed with help. Google App was out of date, updated to newest version and worked immedietely. Thanks for the help dude.
Module is great, just what I was looking for. Tested with several apps and all seemed to work fine.
If you're facing the same issue, I updated Google App to - Google App 11.17.10 beta

That worked!
Install DiscoverKiller
In Magisk install RIru - Edexposed and Riru (Riru -Core)
In Edexposed, whitelist DiscoverKiller, Google, and your launcher
Reboot (thoughts and prayers)

Please submit for taichi if you can
Edit: after trying to use edxposed, it doesn't work. I have only play services, play services for ar, play store, service framework in the blacklist

I tried using this on my Samsung device but it doesn't work. App keeps telling me "module is not enabled or hooks are not working". I can confirm module is enabled and even magisk and edxposed are installed fine.
Any suggestions?

You probably need to enable the module on itself via EdXposed (basically whitelist or un-blacklist Discoverkiller). But the hooks need updating so I don't think it'll work at the moment.
I need to find a way to find the class without hardcoding obfuscated names again really.

The check for that is a self hook, it literally cannot fail is LSposed hooks are working. Try rebooting, and if that fails reinstall the module.
