User Reviews

Scalator Launcher is praised for its unique and smooth UI and innovative concept, attracting attention and users valuing its simplicity. However, multiple users report bugs such as app crashes, lag, missing apps from favorites, and widget malfunctions. The launcher lacks common features like icon pack support, app hider, and gesture navigation, while ads and UI changes have disappointed others. The developer is actively addressing issues by adding search and considering feature requests, promising a better future with potential premium options.

Pros

Unique and smooth user interface that many users find impressive and easy to use.
The launcher offers a fresh, out-of-the-box concept that catches attention and interest from others.
Developer is actively working on improvements and updates, adding features like search functionality.
Users appreciate the simplicity and are willing to pay for premium features if offered.

Cons

Frequent bugs and crashes, including apps disappearing from favorites and lag issues requiring tapping apps twice to open.
Lack of important features such as icon pack support, app hider, app lock, custom widgets, and wallpaper customization.
Issues with widget functionality, especially calendar widget showing incorrect or missing information.
No support for navigation gestures like Samsung One UI gestures, and UI concerns with recent updates.
Persistent in-app ads disrupt the experience, such as pop-ups during setup.

I think this is a great Launcher because the layout is unique and actually works. Would be nice if it didn't crash and cut out on you since I tried to make it my default home display. And one more thing is to fix the time clock to united States eastern time and not have a zero at the beginning of the time clock

I loved the idea of this launcher & it works very smooth but I can't give it 5 stars bcuz there's no icon pack support! I think now a days that should be part of every launcher. I would have paid for it even but it's just not offered! Come on you guys!
