|
||
Lawnchair 14 is here! Based on Launcher3 from Android 14, this release works with QuickSwitch from Android 10 to Android 14. | ||
It includes the following features: | ||
* Fix Lawnchair crashing on Android 9 and some Lenovo devices on Android 10 | ||
* Fix spacing issue within the announcement settings | ||
* Fix "Apps and Shortcuts" being tied to "Files" suggestion in Drawer Search settings | ||
* Add support for force resizing widgets/unlimited resizing options (thanks to @SolidTux for their PR!) | ||
|
||
* GestureNavContract for no-root app closing animations; | ||
* No-root Global Search: search your contacts, files, settings, and the web; | ||
* Startpage as the new default search engine (read more on the blog above); | ||
* Smartspacer support, a At a Glance alternative by @KieronQuinn; | ||
* Custom icon shapes, alongside new predefined ones; | ||
* Additional fonts support; | ||
* Improved icon pack/themed icons picker by @naveenccmsd; | ||
* More color, padding, and font customization options; | ||
* Custom Home Feed support; | ||
* Hide Dock support, and; | ||
* Improved Settings UI with announcements section. | ||
|
||
This release also fixes the bug where adding widgets with setup screens will crash Lawnchair. | ||
It also includes miscellaneous bug fixes, new translations, and performance improvements. | ||
|
||
As an added note, we would like to give a shout-out to @MrSluffy for doing the AOSP 13/14 merge to Lawnchair and reviving Lawnchair's development. | ||
You may have known that Lawnchair development stalled into a hiatus after Patryk left and after we published 12.1 Alpha 4. | ||
Thankfully, with them joining our team, they merged AOSP, added many new features, *and* fixed many issues with the app. | ||
|
||
We’d like to give thanks to the following new contributors: @dhruvmaindola227, @Darkstar085 , @Fox2Code, @zjunior06, @AngelofVerdant, @MwMxdev. | ||
Alongside that, after discussion with the team, we have changed the package name back to `app.lawnchair` because of the Play Store update conflicts. |

After about 2 long years, we're delighted to announce that <b>Lawnchair 14 has finally arrived!</b> | ||
Lawnchair 14 Beta 2 is here! Compared to the previous release, this version contains the following improvements: | ||
|
||
Based on Launcher3 from Android 14, this release works with QuickSwitch from Android 10 to Android 14! You won't need to use an older version to integrate with the system. | ||
* Fix Lawnchair crashing on Android 9 and some Lenovo devices on Android 10 | ||
* Fix spacing issue within the announcement settings | ||
* Fix "Apps and Shortcuts" being tied to "Files" suggestion in Drawer Search settings | ||
* Add support for force resizing widgets/unlimited resizing options (thanks to <a href="https://github.com/SolidTux">@SolidTux</a> for their PR!) | ||
|
||
Some major highlights: | ||
• Search your phone, the web, and more with our new <b>Global Search</b> — no root needed!¹ | ||
• View flight info, see surrounding traffic, and keep an eye on your data usage with <b>Smartspacer</b> — all integrated within Lawnchair.² | ||
• Want to further control your icons? Fret not, We now support custom icon packs for themed icons, alongside some new icon options.³ | ||
• Themers rejoice — you can now <b>hide the Dock</b> for a cleaner home screen. You can also change even more colors, fonts, and padding. | ||
• Are you tired of Lawnchair crashing because of widgets? We've fixed that issue; you won’t need to do some hacky workaround to add them.⁴ | ||
|
||
Alongside that, we have a new partnership with <a href="https://startpage.com">Startpage</a> — searching with Startpage (via the dock search bar or App Drawer search) helps support Lawnchair’s development. | ||
|
||
We still have more things to share! See the <a href="https://lawnchair.app/blog/lawnchair-14">announcement on our website</a> for more information. | ||
|
||
¹ Experimental feature, requires opt in Lawnchair Settings. | ||
² Requires Smartspacer and respective plugins. | ||
³ Requires a supported icon pack. | ||
⁴ May still persist depending on the device. | ||
Alongside that, after discussion with the team, we have changed the package name back to `app.lawnchair` because of the Play Store update conflicts. |
