  • Phone: Honor Magic7 Pro
  • Launcher: Nova Prime Launcher with Google Discover Companion
  • Wallpaper: via Microsoft Launcher,
    • open it, long press empty area of the screen,
    • tap Change Wallpaper
    • Tap on "Bing" (top right, this is the daily Bing wallpaper that changes each day)
    • Set for Home and/or Lockscreen
    • Exit the app
  • Widget: "Digital Clock and Weather" 2x3
  • "Side Bar - Edge Screen" (€0.69 cents) app which oddly enough restores support for the multi window edge panel on non Honor Home Launchers.
  • I have a bunch of socials and other apps I use on page 2

Honor's own Home app is quite good, but it is not possible to disable app labels, which is the reason I am still using Nova.

Phone: Moto g85

Wanted something as close to stock android without breaking the bank. Use to install custom firmware but Google kept making wallet payments a nightmare.

Wallpaper: milky way, someone on Reddit took the picture 

Launcher: nova

icons: whicons

Philosophy: I don't like clutter, oh middle app is appdialer, not available on playstore any more . Very handy for quickly launching an app. I just swipe up for drawer if I can't remember the name of the app

    • The helicopter is still in the top left corner, thats all that matters.
    • Kind of glad I upgraded to S26 Ultra 1TB this year, with trade-in and discounts it cost me €1199, that's only €119 more than the S23 Ultra (256 GB) cost me. Last time I bought it via my phone provider outright with committing to two years, now via Samsung.com I reckon the S27 series will be more expensive too.
