GO Launcher EX Android App Review
AndroidAppReviewer | Jan 25, 2011 | Comments 3
The GO Launcher EX Android App by GO Launcher Dev Team is a replacement for the default Android home screen. This app greatly improves on the default Android home screen in quite a few ways. In the dock menu located at the bottom of the screen you can now have 5 visible icons which you can customize as well as set to a gesture in order to launch them. In addition to the 5 you can add lots more which can be accessed by scrolling either left or right.
The power widget which comes with Android 2.2 you have the Power Widget as a defualt which takes up the width of the screen, with this app you can resize it. For icons, you can replace the icon, change the name, delete it or even uninstall it right from the home screen. If you want to move a widget you can now drag it between each home screen and drop it in the one that you want by the thumbnail images that appear of your home screens. To manage your home screens simply scroll up and thumbnail images of the home screens will appear and allow you to manage them. The app drawer has a customization option where you can change the direction that you scroll them. You can also view your most recent used apps and clear your history as well as quite a few more settings for customization.
Overall, this is an excellent replacement for the default Android home screen with lots of features and customization options. At the time of this review the GO Launcher EX Android App is free. Thumbs Up.

Looks like the developer really didn’t add much to the ADW Launcher code he used.
This is just as fast, just as featured and customizable as ADW and Launcher Pro. It has horizontal app tray scrolling, so I put it ahead of Launcher Pro for that reason alone. You can uninstall apps directly from the home screen…and you can add up to 30 home screens. Adding an app to a home screen from that home screen is simple and quick..but adding an app to a home screen from the app tray…feels awkward. But you need that method if you are going to have up to 30 home screens i gues.s
A Million time better and more responsive than adw Launcher on cm7 on my HTC legend
