User reviews

The G App Launcher Chrome extension is praised for its customizable Google app launcher interface, simple design, and practical daily use. However, multiple users report a significant bug where the extension creates excessive browser history entries, impacting usability and performance, including high CPU usage. Users also desire interface improvements like hover highlights, keyboard navigation, and support for adding custom shortcuts. Overall, while the extension greatly enhances Google app access, addressing these bugs and adding requested features would improve user experience.

Отличное. Можно ли использовать два расширения черное меню для Google и G App Launcher одновременно ?

Incredible!!! Please improve the interface so that when hovering over the apps, the background is highlighted, just like in the original Google app launcher. Currently, the highlight only happens when clicking, but it would be great if it were also triggered when hovering over the apps.
