Each replaces your launcher in a interesting way. Themer makes it easier to theme and Aviate organizes your apps and information in a helpful and cool way (and kind of reminds me of Google now IMO).
Both are by invite only currently, got lucky and got both, so sign up now if you wanna use them instead of waiting for the released version.
My problem is that i can't decide which one i want to use,
Themer has limited themes but more are added slowly, also has its crash moments but hey its a beta and the updates help, forced to stay in stock UI mode
Aviate changes by how i use it but only has a light or dark theme option and doesn't require me to be in stock UI mode
I love lowering my dpi to 180/192 in tablet UI mode but i also love changing my theme especially since themer makes it easier
Anyone else with both betas? what are your opinions? which would you pick?
Aviate
Themer app
I find myself switching between the two. I like the themes on themer, but like the categories on aviate.
I have tried both and was bored by both within a day. Stock, Nova, and Action are still my go-to launchers.

not working
for me themer is no working on Miui rom nexus 4
Dont like Themer yet. Its almost the same as Buzz launcher but without the hassle of downloading extra apps. There just arent alot of themes yet so not really interesting.
Using Aviate for a while now, and I really like it. Just the fact that in the evening it will ask to set an alarm and when im riding to the bus it will show the time of arrival from the bus. Just those little things make it great.
Although nothing can beat just stock launcher. Simplicity and just clear.

I also got bored of both very quickly, aviate isn't customizable enough for me and themer doesn't have many themes yet, also doesnt let me have a smaller nav bar. Back to nova with a custom setup or even Buzz launcher which at least has a lot of options..
Does anyone have an invite for aviate if it's possible? Stuck with themer only :-\

Themer is fun to customise with all those widgets but I like aviate more with its clean organised look.
could use an invite, PM me please
I prefer sticking to lovely Nova. Aviate is too boring while Themer doesn't have *beautiful* themes for now plus it's having a lack of fast animation.

Hey guys do you know if there is an app coming out that displays the number of unread notifications on the app icon, for jelly bean?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
Try GO Launcher EX with the GO Launcher EX Notification plugin.
Both Nova & Apex have the feature, might only be with the paid version though.

This is what I was going to suggest, I know with Nova you have to download a "plug-in" app for the function.
Well I tried go launcher and I didn't like it, I will look into nova, I am considering developing it my self as I am a programmer so we will see how this works out first

Personally I'm using Nova Launcher (free).
I hope you can develop it as good if not better as Nova Prime (paid) and make it available for FREE
I will see, next week I'm ordering my laptop so gotta wait for that to arrive

So I'm going to build my own indicator, because just for notifications you shouldn't have to pay and the two options (nova and apex) are a little laggy on my phone :/

Yesss, can't wait
I'm a pretty big fan of this combination. I usually go stock on my phones, but I just felt adventurous (also, needed a little more launcher functionality).
Any suggestions on a better combo? Any Icon packs I should be looking at? Is there a better launcher for the N4 than Nova, or is that what a majority of you use?
I use Apex. Does that count?

Apex has a lot of features for free, were as in nova you have to pay for every decent feature.
+1 for apex, has always worked best for me. Tersus is a good icon pack and so is miui4

I use both paid versions. Currently running Nova but I switch every now and then when the other one has a new feature I really want. Both now have the ability to import settings from the other one so, it makes it really easy to switch back and forth.

You have to install their software to apply for an invite?
Have test driven it, they have a long way to go. Not a daily drivable launcher for me yet.
Its kinda nice actually.
After waiting a month for invite.
Widgets give me all the info I need. When a launcher does not allow me to take advantage of my widgets I do not find the launcher useful to me.

Just look at other apps created by the same company, they have status bar, dialier and lockscreen, etc.
If you want a keyboard that look a lot like iOS, you can try A.I. Type, one of the included theme is pretty accurate. I would use it more for the Windows Phone theme, but it lacks gesture typing.
Made these for myself, but decided to share =) just hit thanks :good:

Yeah the xda app removes the transparency layer.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
In your browser, click the icon picture. Save the icons from the popup picture viewer. Long press the icon and save. It keeps transparency.
i noticed the phone icon edges was not pretty. Here is a pretty a version. I was bored so I re-created it in ps (vector). If you need a bigger size or better quality, PM me. xda image uploader is not friendly with png.
Very coooooool

Droid-Life just posted some KitKat icons/wallpaper/UCCW widget.
Here's the link:

I didn't test this, because I am on MIUI, and I have no backup. Can anyone test this vrtheme out and tell me if phone and app drawer are properly replaced with 4.4 icons and kit kat wallpaper is added to the stock wallpapers?
You have to be in stock launcher
Thanks!! If it works I will create another thread so everybody can see it Waiting your answers!!!
Looks good, I may give these a go over Nox for a few days and see how I like them.
Looks nice
It looks pretty cool thanks :good:
