- Full-screen folders: a folder on the home screen or in the dock now opens over the whole screen. Its apps sit at the bottom, in the same columns and spacing as your home screen, within reach of your thumb, with the folder's name below them. Behind it the home screen is darkened and blurred, as behind the app list. Tap anywhere else to close it, or tap the name to rename it.
- A folder that opens because you hold a dragged app over it still opens around its icon, so the app drops in where your finger is.
- To go back to floating folders, switch off Settings > Folders > "Full screen folders".
- Fixed: a folder could open in the top left corner of the screen, mostly off the screen, with its apps out of reach.
App list
- Scrubbing from the home screen's edge works right after the launcher starts. Before, it did nothing until the app list had been opened once.
- With "Remember position" on, holding to scrub no longer undoes the jump.
- Notification previews in the list leave out text that Android itself hides, and stay up to date after changes made while the launcher was in the background.
- In the light theme, search results and the search field are readable on the dark backdrop.
- Apps in Private Space no longer offer Hide app, which could not work for them, and leave no blank stop in the alphabet.
Quick launch
- Fixed: after quick launch had been used, the launcher kept old copies of itself in memory each time it was rebuilt, for example when dark theme switched on.
- An app that was uninstalled or disabled no longer slides its page in; a short message says what is wrong.
- Going home right after a quick launch no longer leaves a black home screen that ignores touches for a moment.
Widgets
- Clock: weather requests no longer carry Android's user agent, which names your phone model; they say only FlexeraLauncher. Celsius or Fahrenheit follows Android's own setting (Android 14 and newer). After a failed request the clock waits longer each time before trying again. The options sheet works at large font sizes and in right-to-left languages.
- Pictures: restoring a backup on the same phone keeps the pictures, and the clock keeps its options. Photos are loaded at the size of the frame, and the slideshow pauses while the widget can't be seen.
- Text the launcher draws itself, such as the alphabet's letters and the clock's date, follows Android's Bold text setting.
- Another app's widget no longer jumps in size at the end of its drop.
Updates
- Reopening About during a download no longer breaks the download. At home on Android 17, a blocked download offers "Allow access". A server error no longer reads as "You have the latest version". These work from the next update on.
Import from Smart Launcher
- Sturdier with damaged or very large backups. The preview says when importing would change the label setting, and items in the top row of the first screen are listed as left out, not lost, when At a Glance is on.
Security
- Other apps can no longer reach the home screen's database.
