Man, does this ever look cool! I really like how it's called the pear launcher. It's kinda like they called it that for fun, and I love that aspect of the name.

I like it because it's so easy to set up the way that I wanted, and the best part is that there are NO ADS that get in the way while setting it up, and it gets even better, where I can lock all the apps in place (home screen and app drawer) and I can also change the shapes of the icons too plus it doesn't take up a lot of space! For me this is a great launcher to use since the stock launcher on my phone doesn't do the things that I have mentioned.

Migrated from Nova after more than a decade. Pear launcher more or less replaces it while giving me the customizations I need. Would like the ability to scroll the dock both ways for those who have multiple dock pages.

This is usable, but the app drawer swipe gesture often breaks and this doesn't have a proper "Follow system theme" setting. I like the "Stock" search bar in the drawer, but I hate that I can't put the exact same search bar on the desktop/dock. I switched to Octopi Launcher because it feels more modern, and it has most of the features I use in Pear.
