I like so many have used this app for years. Hands down one of if not the best. However, @developer. The last few days I have noticed an issue With widgets, Google calendar and weather clock are having random issues and failing or not loading. If you remove it and reapply it works but will fail again. Please fix. Something changed with Google or a Samsung update. Over all still an awesome app

Yeah Go has tons of customized themes, but it lags horribly after a while. This is the best launcher by far and worth the $$. Used regular ADW since it came out couple years ago, Awesome work! Rooted DROID 3 UPDATE. Just downloaded after a few years of not using ADW. Seems to work fine for my Pixel 7 Pro. Only issue I have, like others is that some of the widgets don't work.

Good but... Apparently abandoned, no updates in almost 3 years... Shame, ADW used to be king of the hill...

Not updated since July 2013 This was a great launcher in its day, but hasn't been updated in years (check the dates of the positive reviewes) and with new releases of Android many things don't work properly anymore. I had the paid version and am disappointed I had to stop using it for lack of support. I've moved on to Nova launcher (prime).

Uh, hello? Developers? Updates? Security issues, notification failures, issues moving icons across screens/not being able to Uninstall app by moving icon up to "uninstall", font issues, screen zoom issues, new-found ad intrusion issues, among many other issues you'll find by testing devices such as Samsung Galaxy S5, Note 5 up to S9, S9+, S10, S10+, and Samsung Tab A series, as well as Cloud Mobile devices, and other tested devices. This promts security, coding/GUI updates, don't you think?
