In our review, we pointed out how One UI is the best software we’ve seen from Samsung in a very long time. That being said, Samsung’s One UI launcher still isn’t as feature-rich as Action Launcher or Nova Launcher. For those who want a more traditional Android launcher, we recommend Rootless Launcher or CPL (Customized Pixel Launcher). The good news is that all of these options are available through the Google Play Store. Follow the instructions below and you’ll have a new launcher experience just a few minutes
The Samsung Galaxy S10 smartphones don’t have a heavy-handed launcher lock down system in place, so once you’ve installed a new launcher on the device you’ll be given the option to select your default launcher when you press the home button. If you want to switch back to the default One UI Home launcher at any point, go to Settings > Apps > 3 Dot Menu > Default Apps Home screen.
