Thank you so much for your detailed comparison, Facundo! The features you wished most for might be available sooner than you might think 😉 If anyone has a question about or suggestion for Niagara Launcher, please let me know :)
Extremely expensive Niagara
Oh OwO Hi! Your launcher is very intuitive and elegant 😄
@@FernandoDorr uwu
@@FernandoDorr 3$ not so expensive
@@ShuvransuBehera Here in Argentina 17us... In USA 15us... That's expensive
Nova just feels like home❤
Niagara just feels like home❤️
iPhone home screen just feels like home ❤️🙂
@@yadhuareji i like iphones but not its homescreen bcoz i like app drawers more
You need to be open to change
@@yadhuareji IPhone HS is garbage 😂😂 #isheep
I've been using Niagara since it's early beta. I love the minimalist look and it helped me be more productive. The music apps feature is also unbelievably handy. But would love to see the folder support soon.
CAN YOU GIVE ME PRO VERSION
@@MotiWeight-xt2zvJUST SAVE UP FOR THE PERMANENT VERSION
Honestly, you are the best Android channel out there; Covers every topic about android, including personalization, comparison of different launchers, and great apps to better my experience with my Android phone. I was an iphone user a year ago but changed to Samsung because of how much details your videos have about android that I didn't have to be overwhelmed. Keep up the good work!!
Used Nova Launcher Prime, Lawnchair V2 for a long time but switch to Ruthless Launcher around 4 months ago and never looked back since then. It is light weight and has almost all the required features and most importantly free of cost. Those who haven't tried it, must try... It is just 👌
I have been a Niagra user since early this year, and I love how minimalistic and organized it is. I do not like a lot of widgets on my homescreen, and I only need the ones that I use frequently, so this is the best launcher for me. I tried going back to Nova, but nah. I am so used to this simple launcher now.
It's now April 2022, almost a year after this vid was released. Full disclosure, I'm a die -hard Niagara fan. Since this video, Niagara has made even more advances in folders, streamlined customization features, implemented Android 12 style theming, widget implementation, and the list goes on. The developers are very engaged with the user community and are constantly fine tuning the launcher and working on new features, while at the same time keeping the launcher true to it's minimalist roots. I recently tried to go back to a more typical "Android style" launcher (I think it was Lawn chair), but setting it up from scratch just took too damn long. Niagara is, hands down, the easiest launcher to set up I have ever used. Thanks for the video!
Completely agree. I'm a really new Niagra user but I can't ever see myself going back nor would I want too. It's just so simple and perfect
@@Mr.Thermistor7228 Once you get used to niagara , you can't go back, I feel it as i've been using it for few weeks now.
Its now september 2023. And instead of costing 3 times more than Nova Prime, it now costs a whopping 6 times more. Fuck Niagara, 30€ is just absurd price for the android launcher.
I've got almost all launchers premium versions like Nova, Action, Niagra, Smart etc.
But in the end, I get back to Nova as primary home screen setup just because of its gestures & ability to mold perfectly into any set-up.
Although Niagra is one of a kind & best looking one of the lot👍
I have been using Niagara launcher for years and love it. Although i never knew swiping up on the Google icon brings up search. That was my main complaint is i needed to click on the icon then click on search in Google app. So thanks for the tip lol
I am a Niagara user. It is minimal and beautiful. 🥰 I can't wait for the new features to come. Good luck!
hey hows the battery drain in Niagara?
@@animesh.j Hello. It didn't took a lot of battery percentage unlike the other launchers. Because Niagra had a minimal features and very simple. ^^
@@jirianloch814 thanks alot for the information
@@animesh.j No problem. 😊
I highly recommend setting a black amoled wallpaper with whicons (icon pack) on Niagara launcher!
Same, it looks pretty good
Same, I actually thought of commenting it
Also zwart + light wallpaper is great
Been a subscriber to your channel over a decade ago! You are the best really, one thing though am running a custom ROM based on Android 11 however I do have nova launcher prime but that long pressing an app doesn't bring up the relaunch option nor the save apk option, any idea how did you get those options broski?
Hey there! Love your videos. Was wondering what icon pack you were using on the Niagara Launcher phone?
Been using Niagara launcher since beta and upgraded for the lifetime. So far no complaints
Using Nova ever since 2017... never regretted it once. Though this Niagara sounds cool too.
I love it my bro keep up the work and I love the video lot 💯
Quite an interesting comparison... love it!
I've been switching between those 2 launchers (both Pro versions) for the past 2 years. in the end I usually come back to Niagara
Anyone knows the icon pack's name shown on the niagara launcher?
Do you by any chance have a nova backup for your setup?
Can you tell me where i can get that animal vector wallpaper ?
I use both but I'll have to say Niagara is better on battery life than Nova and it may take getting used to but I really appreciate it for it being different.
Thank you for 2160p. You guys are bad ass.
Great comparison 🔥🔥🔥
Can u share the nova launcher setup which u displayed on the thumbnail.
Which is the icon pack used with the Niagara launcher?
I love some of those D-brand Skins but I got my Note 10+ specifically in the rainbow color so I could show it off.
What KLWP skin did you use at 10:08 ?
Does anyone know?
This is like the complete opposite types of launchers.
Niagra replaced Evie for me and I can't go back to a standard style launcher no matter how hard I try.
*What camera and lens did you use to shoot this video?* Could you tell me, please
Amazing video, I didn't know Niagara. Nice launcher, specially for the minimalister like me, beautiful the Agenda view: WOW! But, onestly, is not sufficient for leave "The Launcher: NOVA!" Really thanks for this and this kind of video!
always open to trying other launchers but I just end up going back to Nova
Used Nova for year's. And it's a great Launcher. But I switched to Niagara and love it.
i been using nova for many years, hoping they have gravity feature for the icon sets in the bottom rather than in the top..
Review starts at 6:08, before that it's just sponsored talk.
That guy can run a motorcycle with his sponsor annoy powers
Where did you get those wallpapers? Please let me know
Where did you get the deer wallpaper?
Does anybody know where I can find the wallpaper used on the thumbnail for nova launcher?
The wallpaper with the deer on it, is that created by you or where can I find it please to download it? Thank you.
I have both Prime/Pro, but I prefer Niagra. I started using it when I returned to Android about two years ago, I found it to bridge the gap between Android and windows phone perfectly while remaining an original design.
Nova is great too, I used to use it back in my Android 4 days.
Take a look at ratio
@@skshms.1975 ?
Been using Niagara pro since months, always return to it. It's simply love❤️
What is that clock widget you have on the niagara one ?
Can u tell me which clock widget ur using ? Name of kwgt click widget please
Hey guys anybody knows what icon theme is being used in the video? At 9:28 for instance, that icon for the phone, messages, chrome, etc? Also what's the name of the font that looks comic sans-ish?
Can you please list all the widgets you used in this video please..
How to change the app drawer search bar to bottom on nova?

I had Nova for years...Tried Niagara too...Prefer Lawnchair :-)
Same
Nobody can beat Nova
Same
Same butt the simplified on Niagra is easy better
Same, highly prefer Lawnchair V2
Where to get the deer wallpaper from the thumbnail?
Does either of these have parallel apps and Hiden space like there is on OnePlus?
I cant full use full screen gestures on miui 12 with nova. How u guys have fix for this?
What were those icon packs?
Niagara launcher is the best of the best i think i started using it when it first came out on play store and believe me i still use the app but widgets is the one think that we miss on Niagara u can only place it below time only when can't place it other than that place
10:44 What is the pack for the clock widget?
Your favourable icon pack and how to use icon pack
Icon pack name on Niagara launcher?
I have the Motorola edge 20 fusion and want it to look like my old galaxy edge 6 edge plus, lockscreen, home screen, widgets etc. how do I make that possible?
What's the nova launcher wallpaper in the thumbnail
With Niagara it's impossible for me to access at background app. Why? In swipe up gesture doesn't work...
1:33 where can I get this wallpaper? Please help 🙏
On android 11 we have that app transition while going to home in Niagara launcher
I love Niagara all the way! Because of it's simplicity and minimalist look. Everything I want is just in front of my eyes when I unlock my phone. And if I want to use any specific app I just tap on the Alphabets and it shows all the apps starting with that letter.
I don't prefer nova because it's not for those people who tend to mess up their home screens with kwgt and klwp, it's quite a hassle for a new user.
I purchased Niagara pro , and it's worth every penny here in India but in other countries like USA, it's expensive yes.
Niagara ftw!
I agree man 😉
Niagara is much clean smooth and feels really good
Hey just one question? Is Niagara launcher Pro worth it?
Would you recommend using either of them or the samsung one ui?
Nova premium combined with #Hex for every Samsung I ever owned, even with One UI 3.0, because of that unforgivable horizontal swipe on the app drawer.
I don't know if it's just me but when I use niagara, google doesn't have my tabs anymore??
They're both good its just depends on you where your comfortable or if the launcher suit your custom setup
i want that wallpaper and icon pack. give me link please
There is a folder 📂 feature but you gotta go to the settings and hit create folder
I unfortunately can't use any launchers because of their lack of recents and animation integrations. I just wish that the feature was complete on release...
Your Twitter page doesn't exist for the promo codes...
Which consumes least battery?
What icon pack are you using?
Duo Icon Pack
I have always admired Niagara launcher but never got down to use it at a daily basis but this time I am down to use it. Been using it from a few days and yeah no multiple widgets suck and by the way the weather doesn't work with me for some reason.
How these laucher still alive?! Do the gestures work on your phones without root?!
How to get promo code ?? Did he dm the codes or what??
Im planning on getting the fold4 and using Niagra on the outside and Nova on the inside 😎
What about Niagara privacy policy? It grabs a lot of data from us, even if anonymous it's still coupled with geolocation and device ID.
How to make call in it?
Icon pack at 3:33??
I guess it's Duo icon pack
I used Nova on my old phone to make it look like a Pixel, but now I have a Pixel. I do miss icon packs and being able to remove icon labels but so far not enough to switch off the stock Pixel launcher.
But you can still do that in pixel right?, Just use the launcher and change the icon packs
@@alsimanche yes I ended up using a couple of different launchers on my Pixel.
No matter what I always come back to nova.
I have used both and i love niagra more
the best feature of niagra is the Scroll bar. Smooth and fast
would love to see it in other launchers
icons package name ?
How much battery does nova drain??? Is it a problem???
Im a pro Niagara Launcher user & its the best. Tried out everyother launcher in market & nothing works as seamless as Niagra...
Kudos
hows the battery drain
I love the idea of launchers. I used Nova Pro on my P30 Pro for two years straight and didn't look back. Then I got my EMUI 11 update and was curious to see the changes. Well, my phone is just way smoother, and the animations are nicer. I no longer using Nova. Again, I love the idea of them. I really like the look of Niagara, but functionally I prefer my stock launcher as of now. That, of course, could change.
Even me
From my android life 5-6 yrs till now
I used Nova.... But after MIUI 12 , i am using stock launcher and never look back...😍😍😁😁
Nova Launcher Rocks. Can't imagine my cell phones without Nova.
Wallpapers?
Been using Niagara for some months and replaced my nova, it also stopped the urge of getting a new phone
How often did u upgrade phones?
@@cj7073 not often , but finished paying for my phone 2 years ago or last year so was looking to upgrade my note 9
@@happyguy2k that's a tough phone to upgrade from cause it simply was one of the best
@@cj7073honestly it amazing, that's why I'm not bothered to upgrade, plus I'm paying way less for the sim as i haggled a better deal. If iam to upgrade I'll thinking of the fold but when it cheaper and the spen is in the phone like the note but otherwise I'm happy. Did you have the note 9?
I have a Note 9 and wanted to change to Note 20 Ultra, but that exynos 990 is a big miss fore me.
The Note 9 is a hard phone to upgrade because it was AIO packaging. The Note 20 Ultra with 865+ is a good phone, but the FHD+ 120Hz is not good.
I think I will buy the S21 Ultra and exchange it fore the Note 22 if it comes next year.. or in the futher fore the fold 4...
You should also do a video with nova launcher vs action launcher, since they are so similar with features.
(Action launcher has a little more features)
But I prefer nova launcher because it's much smoother
Wallpaper at 0:04?
Wallpaper @14:21 please?
didn't know about niagra launcher, thanks for the video facundo!
5:05: Both Nova and Apex launchers have always had the option to "swipe up" to open the app drawer. I've been doing that for YEARS before Google implemented it into the Pixel launcher and everyone started doing the same thing. I'm talking back in the day when the first Nexus lines first came out. I remember always telling my friends..."why doesn't Google switch to vertical app drawers that you can swipe up to get to?", I found it super fast compared to all the old horizontal app drawers.
Niagara is great but it needs more freedom and among some options you integrate gestures and allow better handling of widgets
I really like both. For my phone I use Niagara and couldn't imagine to go back. But for a tablet Niagara just isn't a suitable solution, so I keep using Nova there.
I've been using Niagara Launcher for a good 4 months before I chose to unlock the paid version and I haven't changed my launcher since.
Just installed this ,its great
Thank you very much, Ankur!
@@NiagaraLauncher you guys won't listen us
What is that view @ 01:30 ? I never saw that in Nova Launcher..
It is A widget I Guess
Kwgt
if you still need it, it's Prism For KLWP
