Nothing fancy.

Just BlackBerry launcher (can't get enough of that red 'splat' :p ) and a wallpaper I found off the Internet.

I hate the app drawer with Android, so I just have my most used apps on the front screen and never really have to go into it for anything.

Still love my Priv :).

:eek: :eek: That requires a double eek ;) I see how many notifications you get too .....
Yeah I get a lot, worse during the night with the nba

I'm certainly taking advantage of the features on Android that's for sure

Alot might see it as overkill but I like these quick access widgets without needing to see if it's worth clicking the app for news

Backdrops is awesome, and I see you're using the Tweetbot icon. Nice!
Backdrops is such a good application! I love how they upload new wallpapers on a daily basis. I'm using the new Flamingo application for Twitter (by the developer of Weather Timeline) and the Pivot icon pack doesn't have a replacement, so I thought why not use the Tweetbot icon! Thanks! :D

Flamingo is fantastic! I love it. I just have a hard time reading the largest font, it's just too small right now. Hopefully a new update makes it bigger.

It's a breath of fresh air in terms of Twitter applications, in my opinion. I've used both Falcon and Fenix, and although I enjoyed the experience with both of the applications, Flamingo is just so good and different!

.
How bizarre? Such strong emotion for something that just keeps things nice and tidy and hidden from view, would you rather page after page of endless icons?

I actually use my S7e without and grown to prefer it. I have only 2 home screens and don't see the point of managing two areas of my device into folders and duplicate apps where with no app drawer I only have to manage them thusly In one area and not on the home screens and the app drawer.
Do you have to have one folder on a spare page with 150 apps in it? Purely personal opinion, but for me that would be an extra folder of junk on a displayed page, I only have 2 pages, one clean with a clock widget, and one with a few select apps and folders, all very clean and symmetrical looking.. ocd anyone?

Why is it so hard to perceive the app drawer as merely another home screen, which for all intents and purposes it essentially is.

It's merely an extra screen / multiple screens (depending on launcher and device) accessed via a button/icon rather than scrolling left or right from your main homescreen.

No app drawer is not hugely different so why is it so hard to comprehend someone preferring not to have one?

And many of us do not have hundreds of apps on our devices. I have a similar amount on my Android and iOS devices.

I have my main apps on homescreen 1, and the remaining in folders organised into category.

My HTC 10 i use the same essential layout although can't turn off app drawer on stock launcher. I just simply don't use it.
