Niagara Launcher v1.9.6 · Lots of Bugfixes & Tweaks

🐛 Bugfixes

• Fix Niagara Pro purchase buttons not working for MicroG users. (MicroG is an alternative to Google Play services on rooted devices.) Shoutout to Marvin, the creator of MicroG, for helping us with this!
• Fixed an issue where dark mode change sometimes did not refresh icon packs.
• Fixed SoundCloud's media player artwork not loading (reported in issue #2254).
• Our notification settings restricted warning showed up after transferring Niagara Launcher to a new device, even though the notification settings are not restricted in this case.
• Fixed a bug with the two-column mode still being enabled after folding a foldable device.
• Fixed an issue with the app list scroll position resetting on screen rotate.
• Popups now automatically close when it does neither contain expanded nor collapsed notifications.

🍒 Tweaks

• Added a secret command /togglecloseappanimation to disable the close-app animation that plays when swiping from home to return from an app to Niagara Launcher. This animation seems to be buggy on a couple of OnePlus devices.
• Niagara Pro unlocked screen: We shortened the enter animation; added an idle rotation animation to the purchase card and improved its look on large screens
• Tweak and speed up the home screen fade-in animation that plays at launcher start and every time the screen is rotated or unfolded.
• We restructured the credits sections.

Niagara Launcher v1.9.5 · Minor Android 14 patch

🐛We fixed a bug that caused Niagara Launcher to crash when long pressing on the title of a pop-up with Android 14 Beta 1.

Note: If you are testing Android 14 Beta 1, you might notice that the swipe-to-home gesture is broken and does not immediately show the homescreen. This is a system issue affecting all third-party launchers, and we hope Google addresses this with Android Beta 2, which will likely roll out next week. In the meantime, we recommend switching to 3-button navigation.
If you encounter this issue, please star it on Google's issue tracker to bring it to their attention: https://issuetracker.google.com/u/4/issues/277958980.
