Auto-Switch Themes on a Schedule (Focus, Night & Weekend Modes)
The Feature: Add the ability to automatically transition between themes based on a user-defined schedule (time of day and/or day of the week). How It Works: Users can select a primary theme and an alternate "Scheduled Theme" (e.g., setting a start/end time or selecting specific days like Monday–Friday). The launcher handles the switch silently in the background. Use Cases & Impact: Deep Focus: Automatically switch to a minimal, monochrome theme during working hours to reduce app distractions. Work/Life Balance: Revert to a vibrant, colorful theme on weekends and evenings when off the clock. Digital Wellbeing: Trigger an ultra-minimal theme (e.g., dark mode, hidden icons) late at night to help wind down before bed. Why this fits Niagara Launcher's core design principles: Simple: Requires only a basic time/day toggle under the existing Theme settings. No complex conditional rules required. Impactful: Directly enhances productivity and digital wellbeing—two primary reasons users choose minimal launchers like Niagara. Independent: If a user doesn't set a schedule, the launcher behaves exactly as it does today. It adds zero complexity to the everyday user experience if left disabled. Universal: Time-based scheduling relies on standard system clocks, working flawlessly across all devices and regions.

Widget disappears
A widget at the top (replacing clock) is shown, and at some moment, with no visible reason, disappears. But, with a long click, it's possible to rezise it, but just after it disappears again. Rebooting the device solves it. Then, it disappears again. It's with Symfonium app.

Set as default launcher breaks on QPR3
I know it's beta but it worked on my device for several months on beta track. I can manually run it and it seems to work fine but if I set it as home launcher it cycles many times and then stops responding. Android CP41.260731.005.B1

Feature Request: More Gestures for the Pro Button
Hi Niagara Team, I have a small feature request for the Pro button. Currently, it only supports the Pull App gesture. It would be great if you could add more gesture directions, such as: Pull Up Pull Down Pull Left Pull Right Double Tap This would allow users to assign different apps or actions to each gesture, making the Pro button much more useful without affecting Niagara's clean design. Thanks for the amazing launcher!

Gesture navigation home screen redraw delay (~1 sec lag returning to home)
When using full-screen gesture navigation (swiping up from the bottom of the screen to return home), there is a ~1-second delay before Niagara's app list, favorites, and shortcuts appear on the screen. I am aware this issue commonly affects third-party launchers due to Android's gesture navigation implementation, but wanted to submit a report in case there are device-specific tweaks or recommendations for my setup. Steps to reproduce the behavior: Enable gesture navigation in Android System Settings. Set Niagara Launcher as the default home app. Open any application. Swipe up from the bottom of the screen to return to the home screen. Observe the ~1-second delay/blank screen before Niagara's interface fully loads. Problem occurs with other Launchers: Yes (present in other 3rd-party launchers, but does NOT occur on the default stock launcher).

Single number in calculator takes precedence over apps when searching
When you have an app installed whose name starts with a number, searching for it copies a number from the calculator feature instead of opening the app. For example, here in Brazil we have a really popular ride hailing app called 99, and every time I search for it I can't open it via search button as that will copy the number 99 from the calculator. Steps to reproduce: Have an app installed with a name that starts with a number Search for it Press the search button (that should open the first app in the results) A number will be copied from the calculator instead of opening the app

Extend search to local files, settings, and optionally notes
Niagara search works great for apps and contacts. Adding local file search (like document.pdf) and system settings access (like Hotspot or Battery) would save taps every day. Key Additions: Files: Search and open local files and downloads directly. Settings: Jump straight into nested system settings. Notes (Bonus): Search notes content if feasible given Android app fragmentation. Why it fits Niagara: It keeps the launcher minimal and distraction-free while removing the need to dig through file managers and settings menus.

Option to Set Wallpaper Separately for Home Screen and Lock Screen
When I try to change the wallpaper (including using "Set as" from the Gallery), the image correctly opens in Niagara Launcher's wallpaper picker. However, there is no option to choose whether to apply the wallpaper to the Home screen, Lock screen, or Both. Currently, the wallpaper is automatically applied to both the Home screen and the Lock screen, with no way to select only one. Steps to Reproduce: Open an image in the Gallery. Tap Set as → Wallpaper. The image opens in Niagara Launcher's wallpaper screen. Apply the wallpaper. Expected Behaviour: Before applying the wallpaper, there should be options to set it as: Home screen only Lock screen only Both Home and Lock screens Actual Behaviour: The wallpaper is applied to both the Home screen and the Lock screen automatically, without giving the user a choice.

Multiple Profiles
When you change profiles the theme and favorite apps change. This could help with work/life separation. Implementation ideas: Add profiles to the end of the alphabet in the “Niagara Launcher” section. Automatic profile change ideas: Timer, location, wifi, etc. Profile settings could have favorites and theme selectors. Thank you for reading this, Niagara team, even if nothing happens.

Currently, the weather feature does not allow users to choose which app provides the weather data. For many users in China, accessing real-time weather information often requires special workarounds, which is quite inconvenient. It would be much better if we could select our preferred apps as the source for weather information.

Music widget
For the music widget to stop dropping favorite apps on home screen from view. When the music widget is activated it appears on the home screen and pushes favorites to drop out of view depending on the user setup; favorites closer to the bottom of the screen. Currently we have to swipe up to re-set the position to view the widget and favorites. If not, the favorite notifications appear out of view below the screen. This is also the effect when using the music widget with bigger size icons or text .

hi. i think option to pin apps onto the top search result, a free and or premium version would be a great addition for the user. it will simplify digging through results frequently. we do use the favorites and groups which work great and are really useful but as of now my favorite list is quite long, a few pages infact. im frequently reviewing, adding and or reviewing new and 9ld apps from favorites and into groups. i thin a lot of users would benefit from this feature. thank you.

Invisible UI setting
So, I feel this is fairly simple. Allowing a setting that lets you set a timer, like 10 seconds minimum, to 30 seconds max. When the timer reaches its end it makes the UI invisible showing the background only. Then to bring the UI back, you could tap the screen once or twice. The timer would reset if the screen is touched, that way it does not go invisible while in use. This should only affect the main screen where you see your list of favorites. Also, it picking up the phone could bring the UI back as well. That could be a toggle. Same as the 1 or 2 tap. A enable and disable toggle for the feature itself. Just an idea, as I use live video wallpapers, so moving backgrounds, and it would be a neat feature to have. I do not think I have come across this type of feature before.
