I would like for app search to start right as I enter the app drawer and I want the app to start as enough chars are typed to match the app without additional clicks. I’m aware of 0launcher, kiss, and other launchers doing this (I believe I tried all the launchers available on f-droid) but I want to stay with trebuchet style drawer. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance

Update: I think I will stick with Olauncher. I’ve just discovered that it allows to edit the names of applications in the drawer. This eliminates the need of icons for me.

I use Nova launcher, and whenever I swipe up, it does this exact thing. Pretty sure lawnchair laundry can do this too

Don’t think hanging your laundry on a lawnchair will help, but the lawnchair launcher probably can.

thanks for your reply.

Nova Launcher is closed source. lawnchair seems to depend on closed source libs. There was Librechair fork stripping dependencies on proprietary libs (though still leaving dependency on few blobs taken from aosp builds) but it seems to be abndoned by now.
