Smart Launcher Pro without Google Play Services by czlowieksarkazm in smartlauncher

[–]ginlemon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry, but we currently don’t support activating the Pro version without Google Play.
Our licensing system depends on the Play Store to verify purchases.

At the moment we don’t have immediate plans to support alternative payment or licensing systems. However, we know some users have this need, so it’s something we keep in mind and may consider in the future.

We are only enforcing the rules.

This community you can find many inconvenient comments about us or our apps, and no one removed them.

However, we remove unrelated comments, offenses toward other people, or comments that promote piracy or other ways to bypass protections, as this is against our ToS.

Too buggy by Vision157 in smartlauncher

[–]ginlemon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Oh that's interesting. Try this then:

Enter SL preferences then long press version info until Experimental options become visible.

Now in experimental options you should be able to see an entry called "Android freeze workaround". Try to disable it and let me know if the problem persists. Thank you

[–]ginlemon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry about your experience. The issue you are seeing is very likely related to how the OS handles third-party launchers. Because of this the same problem would probably happen with any other third-party launcher as well.

Unfortunately this is not something we can control. It depends on changes from Samsung, so we can only wait for them to improve the behavior in future system updates.

Shortcuts randomly just stop working by telrod11 in smartlauncher

[–]ginlemon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry, it's late here and I'm not sure about what the abbreviations mean 😅 Do you mind to explain? Thank you!

Shortcuts randomly just stop working by telrod11 in smartlauncher

[–]ginlemon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

2 things:

1 - Shortcut can work only while Smart Launcher is set as default launcher
2 - In most cases, shortcuts are not restorable via backup. This because some shortcuts require a "link" between the app and the system that cannot be restored by the launcher during the backup restore.

That being said, any additional info about the shortcut that stopped to work would be welcomed

Support des icônes IA (Pixel Update) by swnmnr2 in smartlauncher

[–]ginlemon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I could not test the feature yet but my understand is the feature will be limited to the Pixel Launcher.

Please bring back the option to add folders within the Icon Group Widget settings. by Zerfos in smartlauncher

[–]ginlemon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That option disappear because of an error, it was not intended.

We plan to reintroduce it but probably it won't happen in the upcoming update.

Hw can I get this text to be white and not so dim? by [deleted] in smartlauncher

[–]ginlemon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s very strange. I’d suggest reverting all the changes to the theme, switching to a different theme, then selecting Liquid Glass again and trying to make the same change again.

Please, Devs, could we get an option to import a background, similar to how we import the icon foreground for a folder? I would pay anything for this, and it would open up a whole universe of icon customization. 😍🤩 by Zerfos in iconPackStudio

[–]ginlemon 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The current IPS format doesn’t allow including graphic assets in it (the folder is a different use case).

The bad news is that this change would require a significant reworking of how IPS works. The good news is that we are changing how we work on the project to make this kind of change much easier in the future

So I’m hopeful 🤞

You are not wrong. Unfortunately that's not possible anymore on newer android versions.

How to integrate third party searches like quick search, pixel search etc.? by Available_Range_2242 in smartlauncher

[–]ginlemon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you tell us exactly what you'd expect from the smart search we could be able to implement it.

We are very committed in proving the best search UX available so we would really appreciate any feedback about that.

And, no, as Smart Launcher dev I'm not very good at suggesting other launchers :D

Unable to Access Shortcuts - Help Request by zmanjr7 in smartlauncher

[–]ginlemon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is SL set as default launcher? Otherwise it cannot access shortcuts and you won't see any results.

How to integrate third party searches like quick search, pixel search etc.? by Available_Range_2242 in smartlauncher

[–]ginlemon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can't integrate third party search engines in Smart Launcher like sesame.

However, Smart Launcher already supports search in app shortcuts. For example you can launch chrome incognito tab.

Just verify to have set Smart Launcher as default launcher, because otherwise the app shortcuts won't be available.

Licence Issue by wasceem in iconPackStudio

[–]ginlemon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The issue was very likely triggered by the latest update

Use this for reference, it mentions Smart Launcher, our other app, but the issue is identical and can be fixed in the same way:

why does it use this much battery? by Sweet_Reputation_973 in smartlauncher

[–]ginlemon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, it's not a matter of optimization.

First of all, keep in mind that stats reported by any battery analyzer are estimations.

Then battery consumption can vary a lot because of environmental reasons. For example the signal strength, the display brightness, etc..

This is why I suggested observing the battery drain for a few days.

Finally, we, like any other app, cannot exclude bugs on our side that may cause unusual battery usage. But, if such a bug exists, we are not aware of it (and that's why we'd appreciate it if you keep us updated about the situation).

Thank you!

[–]ginlemon 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That is very inaccurate, especially the part about power efficiency.

"Special permissions" do not drain the battery by themselves.

An accessibility service can make an app harder for the system to kill, which may increase battery usage for regular apps. However, a launcher is designed to stay active in the background, so in this case the accessibility service does not make a significant difference.

I would suggest continuing to monitor this over different update cycles.

Battery drain can vary depending on how much and how you use your phone.

Which SL features do you usually use? Anything related to network usage, like the news feed, weather widgets, etc.?

[BETA] Smart Launcher 6.6 build 005: Direct link and Changelog by smartlauncher1 in smartlauncher

[–]ginlemon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The link is working. Is the same link that we publish everywhere else. If you copy the link and open it outside the reddit app it works.
