I use an ancient version of lawnchair 2 on Android 14 because it's similar to stock while allowing to remove the useless "search with Google" button that's a complete waste of space, it takes half of the precious home screen

Plus it has enough extra settings for me

Then I actually launch apps using "app swap", which unfortunately has been discontinued at the time of Android 8, but it still works on Android 14. Anyone knows a gesture based launcher that works anywhere you want? (A swipe from the corner opens a shortcut panel from any app you are, not just the launcher)
