We tried to use the launcher on many phones, also to take a step further trying on both the ROOTED and NON ROOTED phones gives us different results. Here are our observations,- Google now swipe feature works in Rooted Android phones. Under non toorted phones as of now this feature is nto working, As we tried on Nexus 6 which is not rooted.
- Changing the wallpaper too from launcher settings crashes the launcher in Non Rooted phones.
- App drawer is simple and looks good and same on all devices.
- Icons and layout are also similar.
