Google Now Launcher

Anybody try this now that it's as available from the Play Store? It's pretty lightweight and smooth most of the time, except the app drawer animation can stutter once in a while. The only real issue I've had so far is some of my home screen icons disappear when I reboot the phone. I believe it's ones that have been moved to SD. The apps still appear in the app drawer, but I have to restore from Titanium to get the home screen shortcuts back.

I've noticed the same thing on my GS4. It also seems to happen when I turn Google Now off and back on (I sometimes need to do that to have my commute card show up again).

Yes, I have tried it on Samsung Note 3 and it gives different look. Icons are larger. With right-swipe you have google now providing reminders, weather, neaby locations and more. Voice commands are very interesting - send SMS, search locations, you can also open app through voice command. Its worth trying. You can always go back to your default launcher any time.
