If you are happy with the default launcher, installing a third-party launcher isn&rsquo;t needed.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"do-you-really-need-to-install-a-launcher-on-your-android-phonenbsp\">Do you really need to install a launcher on your Android phone? <\/h3>\n\n\n<p>If you need some additional features e.g. a customizable app drawer or alternative icon layouts your default launcher doesn&rsquo;t provide, you can download a third-party launcher like <a href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/apps\/details?id=com.teslacoilsw.launcher&amp;hl=en&amp;gl=US\" rel=\"noopener\">Nova Launcher<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"what-happens-if-you-disable-the-builtin-android-launcher\">What happens if you disable the built-in Android launcher?<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>You can&rsquo;t disable the default Android launcher easily, without root access\/permission. Even if you manage to do so, your system will crash.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, if you don&rsquo;t want to use the default Android launcher, you can install a third-party launcher.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you install and run a third-party launcher app on your Android, your default launcher automatically disables, and the system control is given to the third-party launcher. You can then customize the app drawer, home screen, icon layouts, etc using the launcher app.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here is how to install and enable a third-party launcher on your Android, e.g. Nova Launcher:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li>Open Play Store &gt; Search &ldquo;Nova Launcher&rdquo;<\/li><li>Tap Install &gt; Open<\/li><li>Scroll down and tap on the tick button at the right bottom<\/li><li>Open your phone settings  &gt; Apps<\/li><li>Tap on &ldquo;Choose default apps&rdquo; &gt; Tap on the Home app<\/li><li>Select &ldquo;Nova7&rdquo;<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Your default launcher will be disabled. Your home screen and the app drawer will look different and will reflect  the customizations you do using the third-party launcher.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex

Every device model has a different default launcher. For example, Samsung ships with the default launcher called &ldquo;One UI&rdquo; while the Google Pixel comes with the &ldquo;Pixel Launcher.&rdquo;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you don&rsquo;t have any third-party launcher installed on your Android, only the built-in launcher will appear. Any third-party launcher you have installed will appear on this screen.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tap on your desired launcher to select it if you wish to switch.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-do-i-uninstall-the-android-launcher\">How do I uninstall the Android launcher?<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>The default Android launcher can&rsquo;t be uninstalled unless the phone is rooted. However, you can install and enable a&nbsp; third-party launcher app. When you do, your default launcher will be disabled automatically until you switch back to it.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"is-it-safe-to-uninstall-system-launcher\">Is it safe to uninstall system launcher?<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>It is generally unsafe to uninstall your default system launcher even if you have a third-party launcher installed and running on your device. The system launcher comes built-in from the manufacturer and ensures usability on your specific device.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Uninstalling your default system launcher will also impact your device if you reset it. Resetting a device deletes all the apps on the phone. Your third party launcher app will also get uninstalled, so you will be left with no launcher on your Android, which simply means that you will not be able to use your phone.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-do-i-get-my-android-back-to-normal-launcher\">How do I get my Android back to normal launcher?<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Here&rsquo;s how to uninstall a third-party launcher and get back to your normal launcher:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li>Open Settings &gt; Apps<\/li><li>Scroll to find the launcher(Nova7 in this case) and tap on it<\/li><li>Tap &ldquo;Uninstall&rdquo;<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-layout-8 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/img_6230b6ab940a7.jpg\" alt=\"\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/img_6230b6ab940a7.jpg.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-20\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\" lazyload\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/img_6230b6ac01063.jpg\" alt=\"\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/img_6230b6ac01063.jpg.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-21\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\" lazyload\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/img_6230b6ac5f45c.jpg\" alt=\"\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/img_6230b6ac5f45c.jpg.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-22\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\" lazyload\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Uninstalling the launcher app will delete all the customizations and settings you did, and you will be able to use your default launcher again.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"why-does-my-android-phone-keep-showing-launcher-loading\">Why does my android phone keep showing &ldquo;launcher loading&rdquo;?<\/h2>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"1-insufficient-ram\">1. Insufficient RAM<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>One of the reasons for the &ldquo;launcher loading&rdquo; problem is insufficient RAM. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whenever you open an app on your phone, a certain amount of free RAM is allocated to it in order to process. But if your device is running low on RAM, the app running in the background gets killed to free up some RAM. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The launcher always runs in the background, and therefore, whenever the device runs low on RAM, it gets killed, and the option &ldquo;Launcher loading&rdquo; is displayed.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"2-malware-removal\">2. Malware removal<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>When your Android keeps showing the &ldquo;launcher loading&rdquo; option, your phone may becomes unresponsive for a couple of minutes. Some users even report automatic installation of apps on their devices.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If this is happening on your device, your system may be dealing with a malware issue. Malware is malicious software that can harm your device. It can also negatively impact the performance of your device.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A possible cause of this issue might be a third-party application installed on your device from an unknown source.&nbsp;There are a couple of ways that you can try to get rid of this problem.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First try uninstall the third-party applications that you have installed on your device from unknown sources other than Play Store. To find and uninstall suspicious apps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li>Go to Settings &gt; Apps<\/li><li>Scroll down and find the third-party app e.g. one you installed from an unknown source<\/li><li>Tap on the app &gt; Tap &ldquo;uninstall&rdquo;<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>If you can&rsquo;t find the app, scroll all the way to the bottom of the apps list and look for a blank line. If there is one, tap on it and uninstall.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"3-factory-reset\">3. Factory reset<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>If the above doesn&rsquo;t fix the issue, try to factory reset your device. Follow these steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li>Settings &gt; General management<\/li><li>Reset &gt; Tap Factory data reset<\/li><li>Tap reset &gt; Enter your Google password to continue<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-layout-9 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/img_6230b6accc987.jpg\" alt=\"\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/img_6230b6accc987.jpg.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-23\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\" lazyload\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/img_6230b6ad3d477.jpg\" alt=\"\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/img_6230b6ad3d477.jpg.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-24\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\" lazyload\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-layout-10 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/img_6230b6ad9f4d0.jpg\" alt=\"\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/img_6230b6ad9f4d0.jpg.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-25\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\" lazyload\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/img_6230b6adf1992.jpg\" alt=\"\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/img_6230b6adf1992.jpg.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-26\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\" lazyload\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Note that by this approach will erase all your user data and settings, so make sure to create a backup of your data beforehand.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>See also: <a href=\"https:\/\/mobilepains.com\/what-is-the-difference-between-hard-reset-and-factory-reset-on-a-smartphone\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"2084\">Different between hard reset and factory reset<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are still unable to solve this issue, you can install the <a href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/apps\/details?id=org.malwarebytes.antimalware&amp;hl=en\" rel=\"noopener\">Malwarebytes Mobile Security<\/a> app. This app helps you know whether you have malware installed on your device, and can delete all harmful files with your permission.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To set up this app, follow these steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li>Install Malwarebytes Mobile Security app from the Play Store<\/li><li>Launch it &gt;
