What is Nova Launcher?
Nova Launcher is a highly optimized home screen replacement app developed by Nova Launcher Team, designed to provide a faster, more responsive interface than stock Android launchers. With over 50 million installs, it serves as a foundation for users to rebuild their device interface from the ground up.
Unlike standard launchers, Nova utilizes a highly efficient codebase that minimizes memory overhead, ensuring that your home screen stays responsive even with heavy widget usage. It stands out by offering sub-grid positioning, which allows icons to be placed between standard grid cells, providing a level of precision that most stock launchers cannot match.
