Nano Launcher 1.6.2
One of such apps is Nano Launcher. It's very neat and clean, sporting a fluent interface with original icons for your apps and some ways in which you can customize and arrange your screens.
Fluent and stylish interface
Some launchers come with very comprehensive tutorials, to show new users how to use the app and access all of the features, but Nano Launcher doesn't. However, it has a very fluent interface that will transform the way your phone looks and feels.
In fact, launchers are great ways to customize your device and make it stand out. That's why many launchers come with additional themes and some even come with multiple icon packs to choose from. But Nano Launcher keeps things simple and only has two wallpapers that you can add to your screen.
Make the app your own
You can access your phone's gallery if you wish to change the wallpaper completely and add one of your own image to the device's background. The home screen has a clock widget that displays the current time, date and day.
Tap on the widget to type the name of the city that you're currently in so that the app can also show you the current temperature in Celsius or Fahrenheit. It will also display the weather forecast for the next 5 days.
There's a search bar at the bottom of the screen but the app doesn't let you change its position. Still, you can set it to search for words on Google or on ZEN.
More features
It arranges all of your apps based on the latest installed and most used. It also has a section with applications that you might like, featuring some of the most popular on Google Play Store and not just the ones that the developer created.
You can hide apps from the drawer and they're all arranged alphabetically. Smart Reminder is a tool that shows users if they're overusing their phones. It displays how many times you're unlocked the phone on a given day, the top ten apps that you're currently using and how long the screen has been on. The app doesn't come with transition effects, which is quite inconvenient since they could add up to the launcher's stylish nature.

Bottom Line
Design / UI8
The interface is really stylish and sleek, with all features at hand and two wallpapers to choose from. |
Function8
It lacks some of the nice tools that almost any launcher has, like transition effects and widgets. |
Security8
It only needs access to a few areas of your phone, so it shouldn't pose any privacy issues. |
Battery7
Consumption is higher than for your default Google launcher, but it shouldn't drain your resources. |
Price10
It's completely free of charge, no ads or in-app purchases whatsoever. |
Compatibility8
It should work on devices running Android version 4.0 or later, making it accessible to many users. |
It's a very stylish and fluent app but it needs more features.
