Nothing I've seen convinced me I need it.. Pure Android launcher is clean enough.. And changing maybe number/layout of icons... well, could be done in free version as well.

What am I missing by not buying it [except for "helping development" as I do for the few apps I like and use all the time..]???

In a nutshell? Three simple yet beautiful things.

Gestures.
Sub grid icon positioning.
Overlapping widget positioning.

Great, thanks...

However, I could live comfortably without any of these.

I really tried... LOL

It's a different story at 99¢ vs 10¢ back in the day. If you use the Google Rewards app, you essentially get this for free by doing the occasional questionnaire. I haven't paid for an app, movie, game or book from Google in a couple of years now.

So the calendar style is part of Nova?

I see you organized the groups by function, instead of brand, can S10 not do that? I have S10 and have these groups but by brand - Google, Microsoft, Samsung - instead...

First app purchase ever... didn't get the morning coffee to pay for it.
can't see anything that worth the extra .99 from the free version.

The calendar is the widget from KWGT, see attached screenshot. I organized my items not based by brand but by their functions and how I use them, i.e. music - all music apps, video - all video apps etc.

I caved in... Couldn't be bothered with those questionnaires, but I gladely paid $0.99 for this software; even if I at this point have no uses for most of the premium features, they deserve this money even for a free version...

Now I can experiment with Pro...

Settings under notification badges. You can edit where it shows it, etc.

I took inspiration from other users ive come across just using the singular home page, but i still use multiple pages for many apps/groupings. I still keep everything at the bottom of the page, two rows max.

Yeah.

In HOME SCREEN:
Desktop grid - 10 x 7
Icon layout - 95%, labels: On (i just removed them manually for my home page icons)
Padding - Small x None
Dock...
>Dock Pages - 1
>Dock Icons - 5
>Icon Layout - 120%, labels off
>Padding - None x None
Search bar placement - None

In LOOK & FEEL:
-Notification Bar-
Show notification bar - on
Transparent notification bar - on
Transparent navigation bar - on
Dark Icons - off

But i feel like desktop grid and icon % depends on your phone. So adjust to your liking
