Every smartphone supplier can choose which launcher they pre-install and if you don’t like it or miss a function you can:
- get a different smartphone (please don’t! ;))
- install one of the countless alternative launchers
- *in case you simply want the old FP launcher back you can also follow this community effort.
- *file a feature request (enhancement) in the bugtracker (though I don’t think this will be very high up on FP’s todo list).
*these two options are probably only possible with Fairphone and almost no other supplier.
