★★★★★

★★★★★

★★★★★
good update love it
★★☆☆☆
When this app is default forced bloatware on Alcatel Devices asks for all
forms of access not needed for a Launcher, poses as an anti-virus, while
shoving ads, and slowing down the phone rather then be a normal Launcher no
way to disable it it updates it's self and you are infringing on peoples
rights this is a spy app it's malicious spewing ads also and installs other
apps "if you agree to it's install" from the play store please leave a flag
as inappropriate "other objection" in the play store they need to be fixed
or forcibly removed.
★★☆☆☆
This came installed with my phone have never had any issues until now now that there are adverts in the app launcher. On a small screen it is highly intrusive and there is no way to turn them off. I'm looking at alternatives.
★★☆☆☆
Fine as the preinstalled alcatel app until update. Then you get ads on your homescreen and launcher menus. This then becomes slow and unresponsive as well as feeling insecure. The only way to rid yourself of it is a factory reset and turn app store autoupdate off so as not to update it again. I would uninstall if I could without rooting.
