One of the more interesting alternative launchers out there (that is to say, one that isn't just a grid of apps and widgets plus a drawer) is action launcher. This premium custom launcher has been gaining fans since its launch, thanks to a unique gesture-based app drawer and a focus on speed and usability. With version 1.7, developer Chris Lacy has added some of the features this younger launcher lacks, most notably icon theme support - the various theme packs for GO, Nova, and Apex launchers should work with Action Launcher Pro now. A stock Jelly Bean icon pack is included.
Other noticeable changes include the ability to tap and drag apps directly from the Quick Drawer, making it a truly complete replacement for the stock analogue. The Quick Drawer entries now have a more standardized "hamburger" button (three horizontal lines on top of one another) instead of an up arrow. There are a few other tweaks to the Quick Drawer, like a user-selectable tab display, more consistent text handling, full-height drawer drawing, more color settings, an over-the-desktop animation style, and a few more. Users can now disable wallpaper scrolling, as in other customization-focused launchers.
Other various UI tweaks and performance improvements have been implemented throughout the app. Action Launcher Pro is $3.99 USD, and available for devices running Android 4.0.3 and higher.
