Do you have an idea for Niagara Launcher?

Please read our article on feature requests before submitting your feature request.

A feature should be...

  • Simple · Easy to configure and easy to use. As few settings & toggles as possible.

  • Impactful · Either appealing for many or necessary for some.

  • Universal · Has to work everywhere: in every country, on all phones.

  • Independent · Doesn’t add complexity if it’s not being used.

We prioritize posts with higher numbers of upvotes. These are more likely to be reviewed and implemented.

Add navigation swipe

Please, Niagara Launcher team, add swipe navigation. Because I use a Xiaomi phone, when I want to change to swipe navigation, it's not allowed, so I beg you to add that feature to your launcher 🙏 I'm also already subscribed hehe so... you can add new features

Auto-Switch Themes on a Schedule (Focus, Night & Weekend Modes)

The Feature: Add the ability to automatically transition between themes based on a user-defined schedule (time of day and/or day of the week). ​How It Works: Users can select a primary theme and an alternate "Scheduled Theme" (e.g., setting a start/end time or selecting specific days like Monday–Friday). The launcher handles the switch silently in the background. ​Use Cases & Impact: ​Deep Focus: Automatically switch to a minimal, monochrome theme during working hours to reduce app distractions. ​Work/Life Balance: Revert to a vibrant, colorful theme on weekends and evenings when off the clock. ​Digital Wellbeing: Trigger an ultra-minimal theme (e.g., dark mode, hidden icons) late at night to help wind down before bed. ​Why this fits Niagara Launcher's core design principles: ​Simple: Requires only a basic time/day toggle under the existing Theme settings. No complex conditional rules required. ​Impactful: Directly enhances productivity and digital wellbeing—two primary reasons users choose minimal launchers like Niagara. ​Independent: If a user doesn't set a schedule, the launcher behaves exactly as it does today. It adds zero complexity to the everyday user experience if left disabled. ​Universal: Time-based scheduling relies on standard system clocks, working flawlessly across all devices and regions.

Ability to select Google app as the web search app

While using smart search, allow the ability to open the web suggestions in a specific app for eg. Google app and not just the default browser.

Alphabet Navigation

Please add an option to completely disable the Alphabet/Wave navigation. Even when it is hidden, accidentally touching the edge can still trigger it, especially when using the back gesture to return to the home screen. A simple “Disable Alphabet Navigation” option would make the launcher more comfortable and user-friendly.

Flashlight off widget

Allow us to disable this feature. And any new feature should come with a toggle to turn it off!

Feature Request: More Gestures for the Pro Button

Hi Niagara Team, I have a small feature request for the Pro button. Currently, it only supports the Pull App gesture. It would be great if you could add more gesture directions, such as: Pull Up Pull Down Pull Left Pull Right Double Tap This would allow users to assign different apps or actions to each gesture, making the Pro button much more useful without affecting Niagara's clean design. Thanks for the amazing launcher!

Smooth swipe down and up

Right now, swiping up on home screen open search and swiping down opens notification shade. However it requires a swipe until a small limit is broken to open either one of those. It would work much smoother to have those gestures function how pixel launcher does. Where the start of a swipe up or down immediately brings part of the needed screen into view. And that screen can be brought into view with the completion of the gesture.

Move the widgets to the bottom of the home screen

Be able to set the widgets below the favorite apps, most of my wallpapers have the most important part right where the widgets are, so I would like the option to move them

Custom Clock Font

Hello there! I have been using Niagara for a while now and I purchased the pro version a lil while ago, and I don't pay for digital stuff often but it is just that good. So thank you for that. I would just like the ability to use custom fonts on the clock widget that's it 😊

Option to select the number of "more used" apps in the list

The number of “most used “ apps could be an option in order to fill the empty space without fixed favs apps as regular launcher.

Seperate by Apps Categories

My opinion is that, I have lots of games in mobile, I don't even know the names of game. So if we have a feature like seperate by categories or folder for (Game s, Entertainments, Social media … etc) it's good to see all together.

Enhanced shutdown

Hello. I am a Pro subscriber. I like your minimalist launcher, but the design lacks harmony in one specific area. Currently, the screen turns off when I double-tap the alphabet bar; it feels like an unfinished feature. I would prefer to turn off the screen by tapping an empty area or a semi-transparent button. I don't want to have to tap the alphabet bar on the right. In fact, I don't want to see the alphabet at all when I don't need it—including when I'm turning off the screen. Alternatively, if you keep the double-tap-to-turn-off function, please ensure the alphabet doesn't pop up when I do it. The alphabet should only appear when I swipe up or down—when I actually need it—not when I'm turning off the screen.

Media Player "Widget" on the home screen has no function with Qobuz....

Hi everyone, I use Qobuz as my streaming service, but the Media “widget” on the home screen isn't working anymore. What's not working? When I press the individual buttons (basically all of them—Start/Stop, Next Track, and Previous Track), I can see the button press animation, but nothing happens. See the attached video. Best regards Thorsten

Please add support for displaying tasks in the calendar as well. Currently, it only syncs events.

Pin the widgets!

Hey Niagra dev team! I think a feature where you could keep your widgets still and pinned whilst you scroll through the favourite apps would be a nice touch. i.e. keeping the widgets section kinda separate from the favourite apps list. So as you scroll through favourites the widgets stay where they are and you can still horizontally move through your widget stack as well.

Change Existing Favorite App

I use my favorite apps as the most used app with it's folder being a category for similar apps. But sometimes a favorite app changes and then I have to recreate the associated folder with all the similar apps. I would like to be able to change a favorite app without losing the associated folder. eg. A favorite could be my texting app. Then I put all the other messaging apps in the associated folder. Then one day I realize that I use WhatsApp the most and would like to just change the texting favorite to WhatsApp without losing the folder containing all the other messaging apps.

In font there is 3 colour options. Dark, Light and based on wallpaper. But what if you provide a bunch of colour options for fonts. Like i using a pitch black wallpaper of minimalist look and for font i want red colour that suits very well with blacks. Or more colours. Like yellow, Red, Green, pink etc. Or A colour options for clock also like single digit colour change options(like Oneplus).
