Pixel Launcher. - Asus Zenfone Max Pro M2 Questions & Answers

The Original Pixel Launcher (Pie) doesn't work.
"Says Pixel Launcher stopped working"
But Pixel Launcher (oreo) works flawlessly. Can any one port the Original Pie launcher (with the Pill Button Gestures)?
I found some ported launchers, but there is no Pill Button Gesture. The ALL APPs Tray opens with a swipe on the homescreen. But it shouldn't be like that. The All APPs tray should open only when swiped on the Pill Right?.
Please Reply if any one with the Working PILL gesture Pixel 3 launcher.,

HELP: Hide Navbar on S8 Touchwiz doesn't work after installing Nova Launcher

So I stupidly installed Nova Launcher just to try it out. Discovered the inability to hide the navbar on my homescreen problem (seriously teslacoil? not cool).
Spent ages searching for a way to get back to where I was.
Installed Nova Laucher Beta 5.4 beta 3 which allows it to be hidden whilst using nova laucher but still isn't hidden if I go back to touchwiz! I can see the hide button inside apps and it's working (navbar disappears, just swipe up yo see it) everywhere but the homescreen.
VERY frustrating. Anyone know of a fix for this?
I just want touchwiz back the way it was with the navbar hidden on the homescreen
EDIT: Just to be clear - Navbar was hidden on the homescreen using Touchwiz before I installed Nova Launcher. Isn't now.
Latest beta Nova launcher supports hiding the navbar.
Install it then go to settings > look & feel > notification bar. You will see it there.
Can't help you with touchwiz as I've literally never used it

Android P (9, DP3) old Recent view

For those of us on the bleeding edge who don't like the new Recents view, if you use a third party launcher like Nova and freeze(disable) Pixel launcher it brings back the old Recents view.

Thank you very much for that information, the android p recents view is just awful, i'm glad the stupid "gesture" navigation is optional.
for other people looking to deactivate the pixel launcher: i used titanium backup, it worked just fine.

Swipe up twice gesture with custom launchers

While using Android Pie...Using Nova launcher I don't get the swipe up twice gesture to bring my app drawer up. There is also no recents bar on first swipe up. Switching back to stock launcher makes it work again. Does anyone know a workaround to get it working on custom launchers?
I got the recent with APEX launcher but not the app drawer.
Be aware not all apps are completely optimised yet for P
I use Nova works for me. I only use the single swipe up function for apps. How is it even possible without using 2 fingers to double swipe up?
I'm using Nova as well, 6.0 beta 1.
First swipe up on pill gives me overview apps.
Second swipe up or long swipe do nothing.
So, I just set the home pill to open the app drawer ?
So, two quick taps on the pill and I'm in the app drawer.
From what I've read this is because the new app drawer is contained in the launcher itself.
I would like to use the pixel launcher
On my phone with Nova 6.0 beta3, single swipe up from the dock, not the pill, will bring up the apps. Single swipe from the pill brings up recents. My phone is on Pie, locked and unrooted.

Gestures and third party launchers

I'm thinking of getting the 6T but have a few queries.
I like the gestures but do they only work on the stock launcher or do they work ok in nova launcher for example? I tried the mate 20 pro and the gestures didn't work well unless the stock launcher was used.
How much customisation is in the stock launcher? Can app names be edited or flow into 2 lines? Can you make folders, what size grids are available etc?
And finally can you change the shelf to be the Google feed instead?
I'm using the gestures with Nova. No issues. T-Mobile 6t
The gestures are OS level, not launcher level. I'm also using Nova with my own custom launcher gestures and I've had no issues with inputting either sets of gestures.
Gestures are working with nova, but not as good as stock:
-on stock, when you go home, animation shrinks into an app icon
-on nova application shrinks to the center of the screen. Also homescreen icons are present on this animation, while nova appears when it is over. I hope, they will fix it.

Nova Launcher and Swiftkey issues on pxl4 xl

Has anyone else used these and noticed issues in their pixel 4? Swiftkey doesn't always work with gestures when swiping left to delete a word. I use Swiftkey exclusively so this is rough, as not being able to swipe to delete is insanely slow.
For nova launcher, there's a 1 second delay when going home before being able to select anything on the screen. I've already tried changing animations in nova launcher.
In regards to the Nova Launcher: it works fine for me. However, if you go to settings you should see a message that there are some Android 10 restrictions for gestures when it comes to 3rd party apps.
Going into Recents send to be tricky with Nova. Pixel Launcher works perfectly.
Oh my god they finally fixed it (in SwiftKey beta for now), over a year after the Pixel 4 came out and the bug was filed. Better late than never, I guess.
[Reported] SwiftKey Keyboard and Pixel 4 swipe to erase issues
Hi, I love SwiftKey and I always disable Flow because I use the swipe right to left gesture to erase the last word, but on the Pixel 4 it's horribly broken and doesn't erase 90% of the time. Extrem...
