New to Fairphone 4, few questions!

Welcome to the Fairphone community.

So, I see that the phone isnt using the stock android launcher… a few customization options are missing.

Fairphone is using stock Android, that is the reason why you can’t find those settings. Which phone did you use before?

For the search bar, there is a long thread already, with some alternative launcher recommendations:

Can you disable google searchbar on FP4?

Is it possible to disable the google searchbar on the main page in FP:OS? Its a really annoying “feature” what I never use. Or is there a alternative OS where I can choose google Apps I want? This searchbar is kind of a deal-breaker to me. Thanks for your help in advance.
