    Thanks for the report, and for testing other launchers. You are not the only one: the same thing was reported on an iQOO 12, which is one of vivo's sub-brands, and there too the other launchers stayed default: Default Launcher Breaks. Upvoting that post keeps the reports in one thread and gets you notified about updates.

    What helps in the meantime is setting the home app again under Android's settings > Apps > Default apps > Home app, and rebooting afterwards. The system-side causes we know of are collected in Niagara Launcher Not Staying As Default, but those usually hit every third-party launcher, which does not match what you saw.

    Two details would help us here: the exact vivo model, and the exact Niagara version (it is at the bottom of Niagara Settings).
