I've tried a number of launchers that try to emulate the Windows desktop environment, but this is the one I'm looking to stay with. It has no issues that I can see with buggy widgets placement, or too small icons in the Taskbar that make selection difficult on a mobile phone screen. So far it doesn't seem to use up a lot of battery and works fast. One quirk I see is coming back to the Home Desktop after using some apps, there's a momentary flicker back and forth between the app and the home screen, as if the launcher can't decide whether it wants to go or not, which may be something addressable in future updates. I also appreciate that it has no ads, which allows one to really see how it works by itself without having to pay to remove ads. For that reason, I would support development in the future to gain extra features, but the app is functional and works well as is.

Update: Fixed the issue about "momentary flicker back and forth between the app and the home screen" completely in version 7.6.

Thank you for your kind feedback Bill. Can you please check if the issue is still happening in latest release 7.2.

This is easily the best Android launcher I've ever used. Most Android launchers just enhance or tweak the default Google interface. Win-X makes truly different assumptions about the user interface. The basic concept of a start button, search gadget, status bar is something we take for granted in Windoze/Mac/Linux. And yet, this basic layout is far superior to the basic Android interface. The start button reveals favorites, pinned apps and a scrolling list of all apps. It is very easy to use. When you find your desired app, a long press lets you add it to pinned, favorite, or desktop apps. Awesome! The desktop supports folders. Apps can be dragged to the folder. Currently missing from the folder implementation is the ability to choose all its apps at one time by checking apps from a list of all apps. HINT, HINT! You'll also like the youtube introduction and instructional videos easily accessed from the "Welcome" folder on the desktop. Well done, Internity Labs!

Thank you Dan. Batch operations have been enabled from inside the folders now as suggested by you. Happy to hear more suggestions from you!

Love the design. I've been interested in a windows themed launcher for some time, but they always seem clunky and impractical. Win-x is the first one that honestly seems like Windows was specifically designed for android. My only issue and the reason for 4 instead of 5 stars, is that the launcher crashes a couple of times a week. It resets itself and is fine within 30 seconds or so, but it can be inconvenient when I'm in the middle of something. Operating on a Pixel 6, Android 12

Feedback noted. We will see if we can find the exact root cause. Potentially some hidden memory leak somewhere which might cause it to crash once in a while.
