Ditto!

Thanks. I'll check that out

It's been a while since I've had this one. Going to try it out again. Thanks

Thanks. It's been about a year since I've tried this one. Just grabbed it again. Trying to find alternatives for when I 'de-google' my life. Hopefully sooner than later

Any way to get live traffic? I'm not finding anything very useful online

Yes. In settings.

Got to Settings, then Gestures and Glide Typing to enable swipe.

It's not very accurate for me. But it does work.

Florisboard on F-Droid was looking real good for me, but they stopped updating 15 months ago. Currently in alpha. Not sure if it's still being worked on or abandoned.

Those worked by sound. No power was needed or generated by the remote.

From the article...

By pressing a button on the remote, you set off a spring-loaded hammer that strikes a solid aluminum rod in the device, which then rings out at an ultrasonic frequency.

I THINK I even remember, way back, random channel changes from tapping on a drinking glass or something similar... Cool tech for the time

Subscriptions SUCK

Nice idea

Tell me about "secret menus"

I stopped using it because of that for a while. I have not found another launcher that has the swipe up and down on home screen icons to open other apps, put 9 icons in the dock and a few other things I can't remember right now...

I blocked all Internet access to nova to circumvent analytics. Not sure if it's working but until I find a different launcher...
