This worked, but now I have a(n ugly) black search bar on the same location.
I’d rather have the most ugly searchbar from wherever than the one from gougel…
While I love supporting open source, I couldn’t find out how to set a custom home panel with Lawnchair, so I use Nova. This was possible on older stock Androids and it’s a function I find really useful.
Is there a way to do it with Lawnchair? Then I’d switch back!
As stated on the F-Droid page the launcher is apparently not maintained anymore.
Though the underlying problem seems to be something else.
Other launchers you could use: OpenLauncher, the Fairphone 1 or 2 launchers (downloadable from F-Droid)
I also was not able to remove the search bar. Disabling the Google app just leaves a useless white bar.
So, I tried other launchers. This is my experience:
What do you think of Lean Launcher
I only checked apps on F-Droid.
Lawnchair is maintained.
You linked to v1. That is no longer maintained, and for some reason it can’t be removed from F-Droid. If you get it from the Play Store, you’ll get v2.
Well… there is a reason: the Google Play/v2 version includes proprietary libs, so well… not so much FLOSS…
See (and upvote) this issue:
Lawnchair is great! Lots of customization options and no Google searchbar!
My FP3 homescreen went from this…
So you can’t put a different widget, of your choice, in that space?
I don’t know how to, that’s for sure. I ended up with an other launcher. There’s a plethora of them available. Some open source, some partly open source, some closed source. Some very basic ones, some very advanced, etc.
Another Launcher is the solution. I use the Blackberry Launcher (because it was on my last phones) and there is no Google Searchbar or something like that
I’m using Evie Launcher. Simple standard launcher with quite a few options for home, drawer and dock.
not only now use lawnchair … also got this nice weather-app “windy” …
thnx for showing
Will there be an option to disable the bar in future software updates? Is Fairphone working on it? Many thanks in advance!
The search bar is part of the stock launcher …

Hi there,
I’m not using the Hey Google bar on FP3, is there a way to remove the bar? Just tapping it does not seem to work. It’s just taking up space like this.
Thanks!
