Alle paar Monate gibt es für Android einen neuen Launcher und auch immer ist mal wieder einer mit recht viel Potenzial darunter. Sehr gefallen hat mir beispielsweise der Action Launcher, welcher vor wenigen Wochen veröffentlicht wurde. Er ist durch seinen eher ungewohnten aber zugleich einfachen Aufbau bekannt geworden und durch seinen Entwickler, der für die beliebte Twitter-App Tweet Lanes verantwortlich war. Die neueste Version 1.2.0 des Action Launchers hat einen unglaublich langen Changelog mit im Schlepptau, die Veränderungen, Neuerungen und natürlich Bugfixes mitbringt.
Neu ist unter anderem eine Suchfunktion direkt in der Action Bar, womit ihr nach Musik, Kontakten, Videos, Fotos usw. suchen könnt und die Ergebnisse direkt darunter in einer Art Drop-Down-Liste findet. Den kompletten Changelog hab ich euch mit in den Artikel gepackt, darunter gibt es noch ein Video. Den Action Launcher gibt es natürlich im Google Play Store zum Download.
