** Pie Launcher
- F-Droid page :: https://f-droid.org/en/packages/de.markusfisch.android.pielauncher/
- Version tried :: 1.13.0
The pie launcher is a great idea. If set up correctly it's very easy to use and it's fun to do. Its features are a bit minimal. There is basically the pie menu, and the big menu with the rest. No widgets can be put up, no icons can be put on the desktop (although I'm sure that's a feature, not a bug). Still, it keeps me from really using it.
There is also the recommendation that the menu will work best if you use ~6 items in your menu. I tried to see what the effect would be if I added more than that. It's fun, but it's not very useful. It becomes harder to select the item that you want to use and moving between the icons starts going /very/ fast.
