I would like the option of displaying the search bar below the application list instead of above it. It's much easier to tap the search box with a thumb when it's below the apps list than when it is above it when using this launcher on a phone.

Some applications are pre-installed by the phone company. Some of them are plain useless. Would it be possible to toggle their visibility status in the launcher ?

I imagine a context menu entry on each icon : "Hide application".
When selected it would ask for confirmation "Do you want to hide ${application.name} ? (yes/no) button"

In "Parameters" view a "Manage hidden applications" entry would display the list of hidden applications and on each application a checkbox could be unchecked to display the application again.

Suggestion: add option to overflow button menu to let user choose a wallpaper

Add actions to search button in the search box.

Suggestion: clicking search button should put focus in the search box, open keyboard (and select text if there's any).

Hayai today Launcher installed with Android and noticed (unfortunately) some minor language errors (in Polish)

1. "Zarządzaj applikacjami" should be "Zarządzaj aplikacjami"
2. "Wyłącz ładowanie ikonów" to "Wyłącz ładowanie ikon"

Thank you for good launcher :)

Add action to Clear button (x button ) in the search box.

Button should clear text on click.

Hi
I am using this as search agent instead of home replacement. Everytime i need to open it, it takes like 2 seconds before i see the who app.

I am on lollipop.

I don't know how this would be implemented, but I'd like if apps could be dragged (added) from Hayai Launcher to the home screen.
Currently I have to go to my phone's app menu and move them from there.

For old devices, when launcher restart caching icons loads too long

This is what I envision, using Hayai as a replacement for the search bar on my standard launcher.
Possible ?

Just a suggestion.

Hi.

I think that the string "about_content" is too long. So I think it should be divided.
Moreover, I think that "\n" should be stripped, because it is something related to programming, so a common translator is likely not to understand.

Regards.

this makes it faster to delete text when the keyboard is hidden, or when the user has just finished typing something

show android settings items (battery, wifi, language, location etc) in search

When Hayai Launcher is in the settings screen, launching Hayai from the notification panel, or tapping the device's home Button should take user to main screen, and not the settings screen.

Hi

Can you add a way to add shortcuts of aps to the home?

I think it would be nice to be able to toggle if search should be auto focused, that is opens the keyboard right away.
First thing I did was go into settings and look for that checkbox.

I don't think I'm the only one who just uses the list, especially since the last used apps are on top.

It woupd be nice if we can have more ssorting methods like install time.

Would it be possible to have an option to search also among contacts? Direct action on a contact would be calling the default number, and on the menu could be text, view and edit.

All the contacts should not normally be displayed in the main grid, but you could consider to leave the last 5 called or give the possibility to pin some.

If I understand correctly you now sort the app list based on lastLaunchTime ?
A user setting to adjust this to otherwise sort apps in alphabetical order would be convenient.
Cause right now they constantly change order after usage and it might be more tiring than helpful.

Would be really nice if instead of launching the app each time it would switch back to the running instance. This would make it ideal to also switch between apps, as well as launch them.
Currently it always goes to the main activity of an app, even if you previously left the app on a different activity.

search/selection mode:
show magnifying lens icon when there's no search going on;
and when no items have been found in search. (this includes the state of when the softkeyboard is either hidden or visible);
pressing the action button in this mode should select (highlight) the text in the search box if there's any.

launch mode:
show launch icon on the button when an item has been found in the search;
when user taps button, first app in the list should be launched.

Apps should possibly be pinnable that will always stay above the rest of the list, if you have a few common apps you always want easy access to.

This may not be inline with the launcher philosophy, so let me know.

the apk size of version 1.2.6 requires now more (2KB) than 100KB

Hayai Launcher is not displaying any apps that have been moved to my SD card. I moved VLC to SD and it is no longer listed. I thought I may have accidentally uninstalled it or something like that, but I have checked and it seems none of the other SD card apps show up either.

I am using Hayai Launcher 1.1.6.

(By the way: Hayai Launcher is awesome! It's the only launcher I've found that suits me.)

Allow search for substrings;
or at least allow searching for subwords in the app name.

This app is portrait mode. It should respect the rotation?

I would like an option to roll back to the top of the grid after launching an app. Most useful when ordering by recents.

When the keyboard key "launch" is pressed app is not launched.
Instead, keyboard key changes into a different icon and nothing happens afterwards.

Using Google Keyboard (in Portuguese).

Hi.

"app_item_bottom_once" contains a "%d". I do not develop for Android, but I suppose that it is a format for an integer like with printf function of C. I understand the need for "app_item_bottom_several", but I don't for "app_item_bottom_once". If there is no explanation, I think that "%d" should be replaced by "1" in "app_item_bottom_once", as it is less confusing especially for potential non programmer translators.

Regards.

Searching for ABC should find an activity named 1ABC.
This may require rewriting the current logic.

I would like to be able to search google directly from the launchers search box.
Do you think that would be possible?

Text should be auto selected when user goes back to app

On lollipop there is no way to set this app as a launcher. Android version 5.0.2 on Moto G 2nd gen.

when sorting apps in alphabetical order the funktion shouldn't be case-sensitive otherwise you will find apps start with an "A" (i.g. "Authenticator") in the beginning and apps which names start with an "a" like "aagtl" in the end of the list.

HayaiLauncher seems like the perfect little launcher for me. Thanks for this.

I don't have much apps installed. So the search bar is only taking space. An option to disable this would be nice.

But I guess this would make unable to access Menu. An drawer could be implemented by Swiping left, that has menu stuffs.
Later some more stuffs could be added on the drawer, toggles, ram usage sort of..

Thanks in advance.

Hi it would be nice if you could add the option "Show this App in F-Droid" after a long click on a single app

Please consider adding the option to add a high priority notification as a shortcut to the app.

Suggestion: deafault visibility set to GONE. When text is present in the search box, change visibility to visible.

The individual ability to change names of applications, and icons as well as the ability to hide applications.

This list of features would make it in my opinion hands how the best launcher possible.

The current behaviour makes the keyboard stay on top the certain apps (i.e. AOSP Calculator).

The wallpaper is not centered in the middle, there's also no option to pick a wallpaper yet
