  • Developers behind some big-name launchers have come together to create a survey for users.
  • This comes after years of third-party launchers being treated like second-class citizens on Android.
  • The survey’s findings will be presented at a Google event in October.

One of the best things about Android is the ability to use third-party launcher apps, giving you a new way to view and launch apps, use widgets, and more. Unfortunately, alternative launchers often run into bugs and other issues compared to using the stock launcher app.

Now, the developers behind Lawnchair, Nova Launcher, Smart Launcher, Nigeria Launcher, and more have all come together to create a survey (h/t: Android Police). The survey asks users about their phone’s Android version, manufacturer, navigation method, launcher choice, and specific issues. The findings will be presented at a Google event in October.
