Theme color reverts to default

Randomly, my theme color will revert to default red. It seems to happen several times a week on both the inner screen and the outer screen. I am not changing my wallpaper. I am not sure what is causing it.

Bug Report: Bottom-Left Swipe Gesture for Floating Windows Not Working with Niagara Launcher

Device: vivo X200 Pro mini Operating System: OriginOS 7 Launcher: Niagara Launcher Launcher Version: 1.16.33 Issue Type: System Gesture Compatibility Description After upgrading my vivo X200 Pro mini to OriginOS 7, the bottom-left corner swipe gesture for launching floating windows stopped working when Niagara Launcher is set as the default launcher. The same gesture works normally when I switch back to the native vivo launcher. Steps to Reproduce 1. Set Niagara Launcher (version 1.16.33) as the default home launcher. 2. Enable the system gesture for launching floating windows by swiping inward from the bottom-left corner. 3. Open an application and perform the bottom-left swipe gesture. 4. The floating window does not appear. 5. Switch the default launcher to the native vivo launcher. 6. Repeat the same gesture. It works normally. Expected Behavior The system floating-window gesture should work regardless of whether Niagara Launcher or the native vivo launcher is set as the default launcher. Actual Behavior The gesture stops working when Niagara Launcher is the default launcher, but works normally with the native vivo launcher. Additional Information This issue appeared after upgrading to OriginOS 7. It may be related to gesture handling or compatibility between OriginOS 7 and third-party launchers. Could you please investigate this issue and provide a workaround or fix? Thank you!

Niagara IS the default launcher, yet the prompt to set it is permanently shown

See title and images attached. Niagara is the default launcher. No wrapper or anything special, no customization. Yet it thinks it isn't and shows the prompt to fix that, without a way to dismiss it (I found a “secret command” that I'll try to fix the behavior now, but want to report this as broken first).

Recent apps cannot be dismissed or reopened using 3-button navigation

Description: The recent apps screen intermittently becomes unresponsive when using Niagara Launcher with Android's 3-button navigation. The following issues have been reported: Individual apps cannot be dismissed by swiping up. Only the "Clear all" button works. Apps in the recent apps screen sometimes cannot be selected or reopened. The "Screenshot" and "Select" buttons occasionally appear grayed out. The issue occurs on both a Google Pixel 4 XL (Android 13) and a Google Pixel 6 Pro (Android 17), running Niagara Launcher 1.16.35. Steps to reproduce: Set Niagara Launcher as the default launcher. Use Android's 3-button navigation. Open multiple apps. Open the recent apps screen. Attempt to dismiss an app by swiping up or tap an app to reopen it. Occasionally, these actions stop responding. Additional information: The issue is intermittent and has become more frequent over the past few months. Restarting the devices, clearing launcher caches, and reinstalling Niagara did not resolve it. The issue has not been observed with Pixel Launcher or Olauncher.

Android Auto Wallpaper Layout

Niagara is an amazing launcher, thanks for that! That said, when I plug my Samsung A56 phone into my car via USB using Android Auto, I lose my wallpaper icon layout ever since I installed Niagara.

Subject: Bug Report: Notification previews not showing on Samsung Galaxy S23

Subject: Bug Report: Notification previews not showing on Samsung Galaxy S23 Hello Niagara Team, I am using Niagara Launcher on my Samsung Galaxy S23, and embedded notification previews are not appearing next to or underneath my favorite apps (such as WhatsApp and Yahoo Mail) on my home screen. Incoming notifications show up normally on my Samsung lock screen and in my top status bar, so the alerts are arriving on the phone, but Niagara Launcher is not displaying them on the home screen list. Here is what I have already verified and tested: • Notification Access: Enabled for Niagara Launcher in Samsung Special Access settings. • App Notifications: Allowed for Niagara Launcher, WhatsApp, and Yahoo Mail. • Samsung App Icon Badges: Turned ON globally, as well as inside individual WhatsApp notification categories (Message notifications and Group notifications). • WhatsApp Settings: High-priority notifications are turned ON, and channels are set to "Alert" (not Silent). • Niagara Settings: Cleared app cache and data, set up fresh, and ensured Notification Summary is not blocking messages. Device & App Details: • Device: Samsung Galaxy S23 • Software: Samsung One UI (Android) • Niagara Launcher Version: 1.16.35 Could you please let me know if there is a known compatibility issue with Samsung One UI or a specific setting I should adjust to get home-screen notification previews working? Thank you for your help!

D-pad right input unexpectedly opens folders on AYN Thor (v1.16.33)

On the AYN Thor handheld, pressing right on the D-pad or moving the analog stick to the right unexpectedly activates items on the Niagara home screen, causing folders to open. The issue occurs in Niagara Launcher 1.16.33 but not in 1.16.31. Downgrading to 1.16.31 resolves the problem. The same issue does not occur on the AYN Odin 2 Portal running the latest Niagara version. Steps to reproduce: Install Niagara Launcher 1.16.33 on an AYN Thor. Add a folder to the home screen. Press right on the D-pad or move the analog stick to the right. Observe that the folder opens unexpectedly. Expected behavior: Pressing right should not unintentionally open folders or activate home screen items.

Wallpaper zoom-in after phone reboot

After the reboot of my phone the wallpaper what i sat via my phone’s built-in app or Niagara’s theme editor, got a new zoom-in setting (the preview looks like okay). The resolution did not matter, i have tested with fit (1080×2400px) and larger (but the same aspect ratio) resolutions. When i change the wallpaper, it does the same zoom-in effect. The only solution i have found is to change back to my phone’s factory launcer (Poco Launcher), it provides immediatly the proper no-zoom level, then i can to switch back to the Niagara Launcer. The zoom level is fixed till the next time when my phone got restart.

Dissatisfied

​Device & Software Details: ​Device: OPPO Flagship Series ​OS: ColorOS 17 (based on Android 16/17) ​Launcher Version: Niagara Launcher (Latest Build) ​1. Bug Report: Wallpaper Setting Conflicts with ColorOS Lock Screen ​Issue: When applying or adjusting wallpapers directly through Niagara Launcher's interface, it disrupts the native ColorOS 17 Lock Screen styling. Specifically, it resets or displaces the lock screen clock layout, depth/spatial theme styling, and clock placement back to default system presets. ​Expected Behavior: Setting a wallpaper via Niagara Launcher should either offer a split prompt (Set Home Screen Only vs. Both) using system wallpaper intent flags, or avoid overriding the ColorOS lock screen clock composition and custom widget layers. ​Current Workaround: Applying wallpapers exclusively via the ColorOS Gallery / Photos app instead of the launcher prevents lock screen styling overrides. ​2. Performance Issue: Noticeable Redraw Lag When Returning to Home Screen ​Issue: Swiping up to return to the home screen from any opened app results in a noticeable transition delay/blank redraw stutter before the Niagara app list appears. ​Context & Request: While ColorOS / Android QuickStep gesture handling inherently prioritizes the stock system launcher, the transition delay degrades the user experience on flagship hardware. ​Request: Please explore optimizations to minimize redraw latency on ColorOS (such as keeping the launcher process aggressively locked in memory, handling window transition focus smoothly, or providing recommended system-level workaround settings for ColorOS users). ​3. Feature Request: Independent True Black / Custom Accent Color Palette ​Proposal: Add an explicit option to pick Pitch Black / Pure Black (#000000) or set custom HEX codes under Niagara Settings > Features > Theme Color, bypassing the dynamic Material You extraction. ​Why it matters: ​Currently, dynamic palette extraction forces text and UI elements to adapt based on wallpaper luminance, which often produces off-grays, muted pastels, or incorrect contrast on bright/vibrant wallpapers. ​A forced true-black option ensures maximum readability, visual minimalism, and OLED power efficiency regardless of what wallpaper is applied. .

Audio player is stuck behind the launcher home page

Somehow my audio player widget is stuck behind the favorite menu. I cannot remove the audio player widget. It is behind the whole menu.
