        AnoM, 02 May 2022Yes, go buy Android One smartphone, since you like Nova Lau... moreI still own a Xiaomi Mi A3 - that ultra cheap Android One Xiaomi smartphone that has no problems whatsoever with third party launchers including Nova launcher. And that Xiaomi Mi A3 phone costs less than 1/3 of my Poco F2 Pro yet STILL gets MONTHLY security updates despite being an older phone.

        Users deserve better from Xiaomi's horrendous MIUI 12/13 software updates. Not only are they ultra buggy, the software updates are very late and very few in between for an expensive flagship grade phone of this price. Xiaomi needs to hear criticisms from its users. It's the only way it can improve. Fanatics who are all praises are not helping improve the software issues or have very low standards as to what constitutes a well implemented software.

        I would never complain if this were a phone as cheap as the Xiaomi Mi A3. But if the ultra cheap Xiaomi Mi A3 can provide excellent bug free software updates and deliver them monthly, in a timely fashion, why shouldn't a user expect at least the same level of software quality for a phone from the same manufacturer that costs 3x more?

          DanishBeacon, 30 Apr 2022Its funny how many "anonymous" users here in comm... moreSharing one's horrible experience regarding the deterioration of Xiaomi's MIUI software especially when you've been a loyal Xiaomi user for the past several years since the original Mi Max 1 is not bashing. It's called user feedback. MIUI was excellent before. MIUI 12. Now it's a horrendous mess. Xiaomi should throw MIUI away and start anew like Samsung did with Touchwiz.

          If you recall, Samsung's Touchwiz was also heavily crticized by Samsung users for being slow and bloated. Without massive negative user feedback, Samsung would
          have never changed and improved. Now with Samsung's OneUI, the experience is vastly better.

          Part of learning and improvement is listening to NEGATIVE feedback. The difference between regular Xiaomi users vs. Xiaomi fanatics is that fanatics don't see criticism as something for Xiaomi to address and improve on. Fanatics are blind followers that will bring Xiaomi to ruin because they never crticize poorly implemented, ultra buggy MIUI software. Either that or their standard is so low on what constitutes a well implemented software update.

A reply typical of fan boys "you don't know ... moreYes, to you, Nova launcher and 100% of all other highly rated launchers at Google Play Store are bad because they don't work with Xiaomi's MIUI but work in all other phones. So it must be the fault of ALL THIRD PARTY launchers. Excellent logic.

Because you sound like just avoid Xiaomi for everything since it doesn't work with Nova Launcher. Nobody is forcing you to pick Xiaomi smartphone. At the end it is a choice for you to value which is best for you.

                I will highly recommended it, by the way.
                Just be aware that it's a big and bit heavier than most other devices.

Nova and other custom launchers work perfectly with Android One phones, including Xiaomi's Mi A1, Mi A2, Mi A3, Google Pixel phones, Samsung, Sony, and even generic Android phones with near vanilla Android skins. It simply means Xiaomi did this intentionally so you stick with the Poco launcher so Xiaomi can continue spying on you.

                          If the launcher is so powerful, it should work on all smartphone regardless of brand.
                          Now, simply means that this launcher is not made for every smartphone and is not tested properly on all smartphone model, not just this Xiaomi smartphone, but other smartphone brand as well. Yes, there are smartphone brand with lesser glitch and smartphone brand with more glitch, simply due to every smartphone brand has their own Android skin.
                          Please think which come first, the smartphone or the launcher.

                            BEN90, 26 Apr 2022After a year of using Nova, I don't even see anything ... moreActually, it's the other way around once you learn the basics of Nova's customization settings. Everything the Poco launcher can do, Nova can also do, but 100x better. There's just no comparison - from unlimited icon and text sizing to unlimited desktop grid sizing to app hiding to folder, app and app drawer sizing/color/text customization, to widget overlapping to gesture/swipe/tap shortcuts to animation type and animation speed customization, to sesame shortcuts, notification badges, to saving custom layouts and reverting to them in an instant, the possibilities are just endless. The only reason why a user would want to go back to the default Poco launcher is when he doesn't know how to use Nova's wide and powerful array of customization settings/features to his advantage or because gesture navigation on all third party launchers including Nova launcher was sabotaged by Xiaomi.

Most newbies can't immediately appreciate Nova because the customization options can be overwhelming and it has a learning curve. But once you get over that, you can't turn back. It makes the Poco launcher stone age by comparison.
