Comments about Pixel Launcher Android Version

"This is an app that's related to what you're typing." I get that you're supposed to use the app dock, but the launcher's built in search should allow dragging apps onto the home screen. Android 12 and its supporting pixel-flavored app suite has a lot of good things going for it, but the UX feels half-baked at times. Apple runs circles around Google on this front (and many others), and you are actively losing customers because of it.

I can't move the Google search widget, and folders do not have a simple way to add apps like in the one ui on Samsung, I cannot customize the app drawer, and I cannot customize my lock screen. Overall, the newest version of this launcher is very disappointing. It works well and it's simple to use but a lot of the things that make my life easier are missing. So take a lesson from Samsung on this one. Until then I'll find a different launcher.

The launcher is fine. I like the tap and hold features on apps and the news feed on the side. But what really kills it for me is the inability to make folders in the app drawer. I manually put all the icons grouped in folders on a side screen but sometimes when things update they get removed and I have to go find them again and put them back. But this is really not an elegant option to live with.

What is an XAPK file, and what should I do if the Pixel Launcher I downloaded is an XAPK file?

Open up

A file with .xapk extension is a compressed package file. It is a container file format that incorporates APK and additional associated files required for the installation. The XAPK format was introduced to package the APK file and OBB file together for a seamless delivery and installation process. XAPK format can help reduce the package size of application. On mobile phones, users need to install the XAPK installer first, and then install XAPK files through that installer. You can find the installer here:https://apkcombo.com/how-to-install/.
