Leave a Comment
Launchers are the way Android users customize their smartphone and tablet experience. There's superficial stuff, like changing screen transitions, icons, and fonts, but the best Android launchers out there enable users to tweak the device's behaviour to suit their daily usage, so long as you're willing to put the time into defining those customizations.
If you're looking for a change of pace from the out-of-box experience, we've dug up the very best Android launchers out there.

Action Launcher 3

This is a cute, Material Design inspired launcher which takes everything you love about Action Launcher 2 (It's Ancestor) and Google Now Launcher (Vanilla Experience). This highly customizable launcher not only gives you stock experience  but also has some tweaks over it which makes it stand out of all other launchers. The swipes and gestures make it a all time use launcher. But as all say great things comes at a cost. If you want to enjoy the full experience then you will have to pay 300 INR. Overall the customization and vanilla android experience makes it a Launcher worth looking.




Nokia Z Launcher


This is the first attempt of Nokia to build a launcher which not only looks great but also provide a fast and buttery experience. The gesture search takes the credit for this launcher to be on our list. The simple and beautiful UI/UX of this launcher has made it to grab a position on this list. Although we are not quite sure about it being compatible to all devices (most of the devices we have are not compatible for this app)but still it would be a great experience.







Google Now Launcher

If you are a stock android fan then this is the best you can get. This stock android launcher by Google itself makes the best android experience. You easily get access to Google now, button-free voice controls, and enough transparent windows bars to make you think you're back on windows vista.This is available for all the devices running android 4.1+.
This is simple yet cute method adopted by Facebook to make the user experience more personal and more illustrative. The posts come directly to your screen with a simple swipe. This not only is a good concept but also makes you more socially connected.









MIUI v6 Launcher


This again is a cute effort by MIUI. The v6 of the UI is based on 'circles and lines', this is what MIUI says. But not going on their words, we found it simple, stunning, and attractive launcher which everyone should try atleast once. With no app drawer this might look like iOS but it has a lot of tweaks over it. If you want to experience complete taste of MIUI you may have to flash a custom MI ROM on your phone, which is quite complicated if you are doing it for the first time. Never the less MIUI launched the .apk file of this launcher for people to get hands on it.
