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

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).

    Thanks, the two screenshots show the contradiction clearly: Android's Default apps screen lists Niagara Launcher as the Home app, while the home screen still shows the "Welcome back! Set Niagara Launcher as your home screen?" card. Together with your Pixel 9a, Android 17 and Niagara 1.16.36, that's what we need to look into it.

    Two things would still help, right here in the thread: does the card come back after restarting the phone, and does whatever you're trying now make it go away for good? You'll be notified when the post's status changes.
