I'm considering flashing A13 on my phone, PixelOS in particular, but I want to make sure custom launchers (Lawnchair) are able to fully use gestures, including animations without flashing Magisk and installing the Quickswitch module.

I just tried on two pixel 3 on A13 side by side and the only difference I can see between using pixel launcher (system) and lawnchair is:

  1. When you go back home, pixel launcher adds an unnecessary animation that goes to where the app icon is saved on the home screen.

  2. On the system Launcher a short swipe opens the app drawer and to open the recent apps you need a very long swipe

Both are winning points for the custom launcher.

what version of Lawnchair did you try?

[-] Moonrise2473@feddit.it 0 points 1 year ago

The one on the play store because the newer one on fdroid is missing too many features for me.

You need to download it first on an older version of Android otherwise Google hides it because "target android version is too old".

The Play Store release is from 2018, the F-droid one is from 2019. I was hoping you could try the latest release which is exclusively on GitHub.

No that's too buggy for daily use, I prefer the abandoned version that targets Android 11 on the play store...

Play Store release targets Pie, which is Android 9.
