🏠 Launch-R v0.4.2 - Folder hover feature & Shortcuts!

What's new?

Added

  • Hover an app over a folder in the app drawer for a moment and the folder opens as if the app were already in it. Drop it on a spot to place it there, or drop it anywhere on the panel to add it to the end. Move away and the folder closes again.

  • Hover an app over a folder on the home screen or in the dock to open it, the same way as in the app drawer.

  • Haptics for folders: a tick when a folder opens or closes, when you swipe or edge-flip between its pages, when you hover between apps while rearranging, and when you pick a folder color.

  • Folder polish: the title and color dot fade in, the panel and color dot fade smoothly between colors, color swatches press in, apps dropped into a folder pop in with a short spring, and the panel resizes smoothly instead of jumping.

  • App shortcuts: long-press an app to see its shortcuts (like Camera -> “Take selfie”) at the top of the menu. Only shows when Launch-R is your default launcher.

  • Pinned shortcuts: apps that offer "Add to Home screen" shortcuts (Browsers, Settings & more) can now put them on your home screen. They can be removed with long-press -> Remove or the drag bar. Only works when Launch-R is your default launcher.

  • Info sheet at bottom of settings sheet.

Changed

  • AMOLED Black now uses soft dark greys for settings, sheets, menus, folder panels and dialogs instead of pure black; App drawer remains pure black.
