Action Launcher is an Android application that provides a fast and smooth launcher for your device. It allows you to customize your home screen with Material You-style color extraction from your wallpaper or your own color choices. You can also add various customizations and time-saving innovations to make your experience even better. Some of its standout features include Quicktheme, which allows you to theme your home screen to match your wallpaper or choose your own colors, and Widget Stacks, which lets you swipe through multiple widgets without clutter.
Other notable features include Action Search, which allows you to search the web and your device directly from your home screen, and Covers, which are reimagined folders that allow you to tap to load an app or swipe to reveal the folder contents. Shutters is another unique feature that lets you swipe to reveal a widget, such as your inbox or Facebook feed, without opening the app. Quickedit is also available, which provides alternative icon suggestions without having to dig through icon packs.
Action Launcher also offers Google Discover integration, a Quickdrawer with an A to Z list of all your apps for hyperfast scrolling, customizable gestures, notification dots and unread count, and smartsize icons that are resized to match Material Design's recommended size. You can also use icon packs, adaptive icons, scale icons, hide and rename apps, and more. It is compatible with phones, phablets, and tablets.
The app has received recognition from various sources, including being included in 'Best Android launchers of 2022' lists from Android Central, Android Police, and Android Authority. It also allows you to import your existing layout from other launchers, such as Apex, Nova, Google Now Launcher, HTC Sense, Samsung/Galaxy One UI/TouchWiz, and the stock Android launcher. This makes it easy to switch to Action Launcher without having to start from scratch.
It is worth noting that Action Launcher may request access to the Accessibility Service API for specific gesture functionality, such as turning off the screen or opening the notification panel. However, this access is optional, disabled by default, can be revoked at any time, and does not collect or share any data. This ensures the privacy and security of its users. Overall, Action Launcher is a highly customizable and efficient launcher that offers a seamless experience for Android users.
