# Notable changes compared to [Finn's Launcher][original-repo]:
|
||||
|
||||
µLauncher is a fork of [finnmglas's app Launcher][original-repo].
|
||||
Here is an incomplete list of changes:
|
||||
<!--The last commit of the original project is [340ee731](https://github.com/jrpie/launcher/commit/340ee7315293b028c060638e058516435bca296a)
|
||||
The first commit of µLauncher is [cc2e7710](https://github.com/jrpie/launcher/commit/cc2e7710c824549c367d97a81a1646d27c6c8993),
|
||||
which at the time was still intended as a patch for launcher.
|
||||
The decision to create a hard fork was made two years later.-->
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
- Additional gestures:
|
||||
- Back
|
||||
- V,Λ,<,>
|
||||
- Edge gestures: There is a setting to allow distinguishing swiping at the edges of the screen from swiping in the center.
|
||||
- Compatible with [work profile](https://www.android.com/enterprise/work-profile/), so apps like [Shelter](https://gitea.angry.im/PeterCxy/Shelter) can be used.
|
||||
- Compatible with [private space](https://source.android.com/docs/security/features/private-space)
|
||||
- Option to rename apps
|
||||
- Option to hide apps
|
||||
- Favorite apps
|
||||
- New actions:
|
||||
- Toggle Torch
|
||||
- Lock screen
|
||||
- The home button now works as expected.
|
||||
- Improved gesture detection.
|
||||
|
||||
### Visual
|
||||
- This app uses the system wallpaper instead of a custom solution.
|
||||
- The font has been changed to [Hack][hack-font], other fonts can be selected.
|
||||
- Font Awesome Icons were replaced by Material icons.
|
||||
- The gear button on the home screen was removed. A smaller button is show at the top right when necessary.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Search
|
||||
- The search algorithm was modified to prefer matches at the beginning of the app name, i.e. when searching for `"te"`, `"termux"` is sorted before `"notes"`.
|
||||
- The search bar was moved to the bottom of the screen.
|
||||
|
||||
### Technical
|
||||
- Improved gesture detection.
|
||||
- Different apps set as default.
|
||||
- Package name was changed to `de.jrpie.android.launcher` to avoid clashing with the original app.
|
||||
- Dropped support for API < 21 (i.e. pre Lollypop)
|
||||
- Fixed some bugs
|
||||
- Some refactoring
|
||||
