Wallpaper picker skips home screen / lock screen selection

After updating to Niagara Launcher 1.16.7, setting a wallpaper through Niagara appears to skip Android’s usual selection dialog for choosing Home screen, Lock screen, or both. The wallpaper is applied directly to both screens. Open an image from the phone’s wallpaper or gallery settings. Select Niagara Launcher / Niagara wallpaper option. Apply the wallpaper. The wallpaper is set directly without showing the Home screen / Lock screen selection.

Notification read, reply and control / Xiaomi Game Turbo

When this special permission is given to Niagara launcher, for the purpose of music/media playback etc. it causes a bug on Xiaomi phones. I've been trying to hunt this bug down and I did so after fully resetting my phone. When the permission is given, whenever the game turbo boost feature gets used, the whole game turbo process crashes and restarts itself with the boost off again. I'm in Germany using the latest Global Stable EUX ROM on my Xiaomi 17 Ultra Leitzphone. However I have tried the Chinese version of game turbo and that did not crash when the boost was used. I do not know the correlation, I know the game turbo feature itself is embedded into the security app of Xiaomi devices. I do assume this isn't specifically happening on this model, rather on Xiaomi phones altogether, I cannot however confirm that as I do not have another Xiaomi device.

Home Button delay / Launcher seems to close / Global Search not showing up

After the latest oppo find x9 pro system Upgrade, when I press the home button all launchers seem to “close”. I see the blank wallpaper for 1 second, but not the launcher itself. Therefore the global search, which used to work when I hit the home button when I am on the home screen of Niagara, doesn't reliably pull up. As this happens to be now with all other tested third party launchers, I sadly believe it's nothing you guys can fix. But it is so annoying that I must think of switching to the system launcher - after years of being a so happy Niagara pro user. But I still wanted to report it. Maybe you guys find a “workaround”. Meanwhile I'll try to find a way to get along with this stupid bug.

Theme preview app icon

When looking at the previews in the theme creation or general ready made themes sections the first two app icons stay as the already in use app icon, instead of the selected ones for that particular theme. To reproduce: Set icons to outlines as default in the already in use theme. Go to Themes→ Ready made themes You can see the previous is showing the same default icons u selected before instead of the one selected for that particular theme.

Niagara Launcher appearing in recent apps after latest update.

Niagara Launcher has started appearing in recent apps after the latest update. I've used it for years on this device and this hasn't happened before. I've made sure it is set as the default launcher. I've set another launcher as default, then switched back to Niagara. I've tried rebooting the phone. Nothing is clearing it up. Steps to reproduce: Wait a bit. Open recent apps.

Google Chrome icon automatically gets removed from favourites

I have been facing this issue from few months. Whenever I add google Chrome to favourites after few days the shortcut gets removed automatically. I will then have to edit my favourites and add Google Chrome again. I am also facing the same issue if I assign Google Chrome as a shortcut on the Niagara search swipe up button. Google Chrome is the only app which is giving me issue. The issue keeps occurring every 7 to 10 days. I keep adding Google home again and again as my favourites and it keeps disappearing.

Notifications cannot be dismissed from home screen or app popup

Sometimes notifications stop responding to swipe gestures in Niagara Launcher. When this issue occurs, notifications cannot be dismissed from the home screen notification list. They also cannot be dismissed from the app popup accessed by swiping right on an app icon. Steps to Reproduce: Receive a notification (most commonly observed with Instagram and WhatsApp) . Open Niagara Launcher home screen. Try dismissing the notification by swiping left or right. Alternatively, open the app popup by swiping right on the app icon and try dismissing the notification there.
