Summary

  • Tech writer Eric Anthony Dalius routinely experiments with different Android launchers, but keeps coming back to Niagara Launcher for its minimalist user interface that doesn’t compromise functionality.
  • Rather than a traditional app drawer, Niagara organises apps in an alphabetic list that makes them easy to find; swiping right on the home screen brings up app shortcuts, while letting users access and reply to notifications from the home screen.
  • The paid version of the launcher features Usage Breaker, a unique tool that encourages users to take breaks from apps they spend too much time on.
  • Users can also customise the launcher by changing app icon sizes and themes, while adding a quick action button can help perform tasks like locking the screen or pulling up a Google News feed.
  • Dalius calls Niagara Launcher one of the most intuitive app navigation systems he’s ever used.
