Need Android Launcher Recommendation

Is there a Android Launcher that supports

  • organize app icons in bulk
  • automatically add newly installed app icon to homescreen
  • an option to add all already installed app that aren’t on home screen to home screen
  • easy to organize app icon on home screen into folders
  • easy to organize app icon on app drawer into folders (may not be necessary)

appreciate any helP

    It does have the ability to add new apps to home screen, but this may only be in the nightly for now. It does unfortunately not have a jiggle mode like iOS, but I find that it’s fast enough to hold it for a moment longer to move apps that I don’t feel too much of a desire for it

      That is good to know, thanks a million

      I have installed Lawnchair nightly. But when it loads only 3 apps icons are shown in home screen. It seems that I need to manually drag and drop all my 50 icons from drawer to home screen. is this the default behaviour. Is there a way to add all icons directly to home screen?

      Also I have enabled it in the setting. But my newly installed app from f-droid doesn’t show automatically on my home screen which seems to be a strange behaviour. Maybe a bug?

        Ah I think I see what you’re going with here. Try turning on “deck” mode shown in the same picture above. That’ll place all apps on the home screen and disable the drawer completely. Bypasses the need for automatically adding new apps too

        Edit: heads up, there’s a reason it says beta next to it. Definitely quite new for the app
