Discovered by redditors, this is one of those Android sales that you should pay attention to, especially if you’ve been waiting for the price to drop. In fact, even if you miss out on the sale, you still should consider paying full price. Regularly priced at $4.99, the app is going to be one of the best Android investments you’ve ever made.

Nova Launcher Prime was installed so far up to 5,000,000 times, having an aggregate review of 4.8 stars out of 5, from around 200,000 reviews.

The main benefit of the Nova Launcher is that you get to customize the launcher as you want it, allowing you more granular control over Android. The app may sound like a tool for hardcore Android users, but that’s not the case. Nova Launcher is simply ready to improve the look and feel of your handset or tablet, letting you take command of the app launcher.

The basic version is free of charge, but Nova Launcher Premium comes with a bunch of extra perks, including support for a variety of gestures (double tapping, swiping or pinching), the ability to hide certain apps (which can be useful to deal with bloatware) and customizable icon swipes, to name just a few. If you bought Android mainly because, unlike the iPhone, it can be customized by the user, then Nova Launcher is one of the tools that will help you personalize your overall experience.
