Discussion How to show most frequently/recently used apps

1 Upvotes

Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra, One UI 8.

Niagara launcher is almost perfect. I have organized my go to apps on the favorites. Have two gripes that can't find a way. Gemini is just hallucinating too.

- Show most frequently used apps automatically in the favorites

- If that's not possible at least show it when I swipe up to get the app search drawer

Any idea how to get it?

Feature Request Niagara on Fold 8 (or any fold)

8 Upvotes

I love Niagara, but it's not great for foldables IMHO. I stopped using it because it limits what I want to do. I've seen others mention this, but I want to re-iterate just in case Niagara is listening here.

The front screen is perfect for Niagara. I want to continue to use it that way, but when I unfold my phone, I want a different experience. It doesn't make sense to have the Niagara setup on the inside screens. My 2 cents. Thanks for listening.

My suggestion, have a toggle that allows us to "turn off" the launcher within the inner screen. This way we have choices.

I know the goal of Niagara is to allows us to get to what's important quickly and less clutter and noise in general. And I want that for the front screen, but not for the inner screen. It's like a mullet. Business in the front, party in the back.

Thanks!

Bug Report Microsoft Defender flags Niagara Launcher as malware - false positive?

Thumbnail
gallery
3 Upvotes

Today, Microsoft Defender on my Android phone suddenly detected Niagara Launcher as malware, identifying it as Trojan:AndroidOS/Wacatac.A!ml and recommending that I uninstall the app immediately.

A few details:

Niagara Launcher was installed directly from the Google Play Store.

App version 1.16.32 of Niagara Launcher.

Google Play Protect reports no threats.

Malwarebytes also reports no threats.

Microsoft Defender is the only security app flagging Niagara Launcher.

I'm using a Samsung Galaxy smartphone.

I'm aware that Niagara Launcher has previously been falsely flagged by antivirus software, possibly due to code obfuscation.

I've attached screenshots of the Microsoft Defender warning (german language).

Has anyone else recently received the same warning? Is this a known false positive, or is there something to be concerned about?

Bug Report Qobuz don't work in music widget

2 Upvotes

Hi,

I've bought the pro version and I am very happy with it but the music widget doesn't work with Qobuz: song and name are correctly displayed but buttons have no effect.

I'm using the last version of each app on Google pixel 11 pro XL.

Love Niagara, but maybe it's the wider form factor, but I find wallpapers look so great on this phone. Maybe because it's not so narrow like my last phone...

Wallpaper is from Abbey Road (1969). I inverted the trees and darkened the sky to match Niagara's dark mode. Used Photopea + GIMP. The icons are from a free line pack. Still tweaking the layout.

Feature Request Small feature - Toggle do stop reminding about default launcher

4 Upvotes

Hi team,

Can you please add a toggle that will let us switch off the reminders to change default launcher? I want to use Niagara as secondary launcher but this small annoying pop up AND a widget like message is the barrier that stops me from it.

Bug Report Clock style bug when folding?

2 Upvotes

I have a Samsung Galaxy fold 8 and I've been using Niagara launcher on it but I'm having issues with the clock style. I try to change the clock Style to almost anything where it has two lines. When I do that the big issue is if I close or open the phone it will either reset or it's at least removing the Top Line. Has anyone else seen this behavior?

Edited for pics:

This is it when I first add it. It cuts off the top line. I have to drag it down. (I have tried this w/o widgets BTW).
This is after I close it. It's reset to the plain clock. (It doesn't matter what I choose, I can choose any of them but as soon as I close it, it reverts to this one).

Showcase Made a widget that puts all my media players into one tidy widget to put atop of a list

4 Upvotes

You know the deal: a Niagara widget popup holds exactly one widget. So it's Spotify or Audible or Pocket Casts, never all three at once.

Widget Stack is ONE widget with SEVERAL players living inside it. Basically a player dashboard at a glance: every app gets its own row with cover, title and controls, and the one that's playing is highlighted. Drop it into a single popup, pick your apps per row, done.

On top of that, I never liked my phone's built-in media controls. They only show whatever played last, and switching between players there is clunky. This fixes both for me.

What it does

  • 1 to 4 rows, you choose which app goes into which row
  • Cover art, title, and back / play-pause / forward per row, the playing row is highlighted
  • Rows stay there even when the app isn't running and show the last played item. ▶ tries to resume it
  • Podcast and audiobook apps without "next track" get skip back/forward instead (e.g. 15 s in Spotify podcasts)
  • Material You colors, light and dark, resizable
  • Works with anything that has proper media controls: Spotify, YouTube Music, Audible, Pocket Casts, AntennaPod, Tidal, Deezer, ...

Privacy

It needs notification access, because that's the only way Android lets an app read media sessions. It does not read or store notification content, and it has no internet permission at all. Code is MIT on GitHub, no dependencies besides Kotlin.

Heads-up for sideloading

Android 13+ greys out notification access for apps not installed from a store. Settings → Apps → Widget Stack → ⋮ → "Allow restricted settings" fixes it (steps are in the README).

Download (APK) and source: https://github.com/Intersebbtor/widget-stack

Android 12+. Feedback and bug reports welcome, especially which apps misbehave on resume.
