Google Now is a launcher/search engine. I use the search app with LL. The upcoming Android M is proposed to come fully integrated with “Google Now on Tap”. Will this in anyway impact on LL Pierre Hébert​ ?

I have tried many launchers and during KitKat moved to LLX and now Lollipop 5.0.2 without looking back … never a hiccup. I don’t write scripts and yet I find I can do the simplest and most sophisticated setups with LLX. LLX is as easy to use as any launcher. I have never once said ” I would like this ” or “I don’t like this”. A credit to the vision and expertise you had in creating this launcher Pierre Hébert​

Here’s what I don’t get.

On Play store LLX is listed as having ~10k installs. By comparison Nova launcher is listed at ~10,000k installs. LLX is rarely, if ever, mentioned in a review of launchers and when it is the review is, imo, way off the mark … leaving the impression that LLX is complex and for the “experts”.

If the intent is to keep LLX in a small community then it has a passionate and dedicated community .. but if wider exposure is desired then I think Carolyn Boyle​​​ hit it in a post I remember …. MARKETING. Better marketing is required.

Also this sort of idea where the pen represents the script writing capability. I feel the LLX icon needs to capture the user/developer interface that other launchers lack … whether hand, pen etc.

What makes LLX unique is that it can be programmed, customised etc. These sort of images (only as an example) I feel better capture the dynamics of LLX. The hand represents the user/programmer who has “forged” and is launching the lightning bolt which represents the LLX desktop framework to be created
