it was bothering me for at least two weeks now with "nova launcher can't open network connection". today it finally presented this shitty ad dialog with missing reject all option where you can either accept all, or dive into few dozens of separate section, each of them containing few dozens sliders, all of them enabled by default.

let this be warning to others and you can deal with it before it surprises you when you are somewhere outside.

what privacy concious launchers do you people use? i have tried kiss launcher, but that doesn't seem to be for me.

i want classic launcher where i have icons on desktop where i put them and i can manipulate them blindfolded, not something that is trying to reinvent the wheel.

Same. I miss Nova. No other launcher comes close.
