Sadly can not work on my Sony PRS-T1. Can you support 2.2.1 in future?

SchockoNougat I would say it's rather no than yes. Potentially, I could try backport the existing functionality to support 2.2.1 (no promises here) but I definitely would not expect the new features for this version. Unfortunately, there are too many changes in the API between current versions of Android and 2nd version you have.

I just bought an inkbook prime hd today. Finding about this launcher made me more excited! I just tested it on my phone and i can say that i liked it a lot already, the settings and layout is well thought out and very useful to readers. Good job dsimbiriatin!

It's working fine on kingrow k1, i appreciated especially the backlight switch on the toolbal.
Is it too much to ask for app containers?
I'm trying to make this device a smartphone substitute so i'm already around 40 icons..

Thanks a lot for the launcher, I use it on my JDread t65s and I'm very happy with it.
I've just a few of problems:
- sometimes the ebook shuts down abruptly
- when I close the cover the light doesn't turn off and it turns on if it is already off
- it does not go to sleep after timeout
- when sleeping it wakes up only with the home button and not with the power button as before, that is as I would expect

I would be happy to help in fixing those problems if I can.

Best regards.

Thank you for your launcher, nice and neatly.
I encountered a weird issue, not sure if it caused by your launcher or because of my firmware.
When I set KOReader as default reader, and let it autorun when my Nook glowllight plus 7.8" reset of power on, the power button did not work. It would work if only I back to homescreen of the launcher and back to Koreader again.

Could you help to take a look and advise if I can do anything to fix that?

Thank you.

Thank you very much! I use it on my Onyx Boox Kon-Tiki 2. So simple and yet useful.

Can you please make an option to have exact NxM grid in the launcher to avoid scrolling?
Currently I have 4 columns set, and 17th icon does not fully fit in one screen. It still can be launched, so it is just an aesthetic thing.
