Nova Launcher has been sold to Instabridge, and the new owners are adding ads to the launcher's app drawer in the free version. Check it out!

    I recommend Kvaesitso, very snappy with lots of functionality.

      I did try that when switching from Nova but it ran quite horribly on my phone. I’ve since switched to Olauncher and while the absolutely minimalistic style took some time getting used to, I don’t want to go back anymore.

      Am I just not seeing it or do they not seem to allow icons on the desktop?

          It just looks like none of the screen shots are showing desktop icons which is weird
