Niagara Launcher v1.12.8 · Ready for Android 15?

In 1.12.7, we accidentally declared a permission that is not currently used in the public release. Thus, 1.12.8 removes this permission again. There are otherwise no user-facing changes in this release. See the original changelog for 1.12.7 below.

🚀 Support new features introduced in Android 15

• Private Space: find apps from your private space in a new section and unlock or lock the private space directly from Niagara Launcher. The private space feature introduced in Android 15 allows users to keep sensitive apps in a separate space with additional authentication. You can set up your private space in Android's system settings on Android 15.
• App Archiving: archived apps are greyed out and have a neat “cloud” badge to show that they need to be restored before using them again. Archiving apps allows freeing storage from unused apps without losing their date. To archive apps on Android 15, go to an app's app info and click “archive” (only user-installed apps are supported).
