Yes even though android gestures are not working correctly with them and it's best to revert to 3 buttons navigation.
It's been years since this was an issue for any launcher still actively being updated, at least on the Poco and Fairphones I've had in that time.
Works fine with Niagara. What exactly is it not doing right?
I've had to give up on KISS launcher recently because of this. 95% of the time it works fine, until it scrolls right to the end of the lost and won't allow you to scroll back. Swiping left and right then also breaks and the only thing to do is force stop quickstep.
EDIT: Just tried with Niagara and got the same issue almost immediately. (Seems to be triggered by opening recent apps from the launcher itself)
For reference, I'm on a Fairphone 5 using the stock ROM
Nova Launcher (7) works without problems on my Pixel 8 Pro. On my Xiaomi Mi 9 SE gestures with Nova were broken somehow, but now with the Pixel it's fine again.
huh interesting currently using two pixels one with stock with Niagara and one on graphene with kiss I haven't had that seemingly it's phone based which is weird based on comments
Swiping left or right on home to switch apps doesn't work. Swiping up on home to bring recent apps works so so. It's slow to trigger or have to swipe almost at top of the screen. Going back to home is also slow. Wallpaper is immediately show but icons take 3/4 seconds to appear. With buttons it's instant. With other apps no problem.
I am using nova latest beta on Android 14 with a OnePlus 12. As it is fairly recent maybe it still need optimization.
On Niagara and I've never experienced any of those issues at any point.
