A few days ago the APK file of the Pixel Launcher was filtered , but finally it has officially arrived at the Play Store. The official launcher of the successor phones of the Nexus aroused much interest in users for its renewed appearance and its new features.

The new way to access the application drawer with a gesture or the new logo with the "G" at the top that replaces the previous search bar, are some of the new features of the Pixel Launcher.

The Pixel Launcher comes to Play Store officially.

Although the laucher is available on Google Play, it seems that its installation is restricted only to certain devices, we assume that Pixel itself. As the direct installation from Google Play is restricted, the solution is to download the APK file and install it directly on the Android device . The only requirement is to have Android 5.0 Lollipop or higher and you can install the APK without problems.

The reports of several users already claim that it has worked correctly in a Moto G4 Plus, in a Moto G first generation with CyanogenMod 13, in a Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge, etc. We can say that it works on the vast majority of devices, you just have to encourage you to try it.

Although we can install the launcher, there are certain features that are only available in the case of having Android 7 Nougat installed on the phone . Some of the limitations that we can observe if we have Android 7 are: the launcher does not offer us rounded icons, although folders appear rounded and there are several users who report that they do not have access to Google Now cards.

Finally clarify that this version of the Google Play Store laucher works better than the one that had leaked some time ago, so it's worth retesting if it did not work correctly the first time.
