What Does The Home App Do?

[JBurnett]

Hi!

Intelligent question of the day. What is The Home App for? it's some kind of a launcher, yes, but...

So I have a Moto-Z, altho I'm sure this applies to iPhone too. My Home App has been Moto Launcher, but Microscrap talked me into installing their Launcher. Now I have 2- OMG decisions! It's asking, "hey, what's the default?" I'm assuming I want the Moto one so it works with all the Moto Apps, but is it worth having a Launcher installed (MS one) that you don't have as default? Can you still use it?

Sorry for the ignorance; I can program a VCR.

Thank you

It's basically an app that controls how your app drawer and home screen looks like and functions. Some launchers are very useful, adding neat little gestures and tricks. I'm using Nova Launcher on my phone. The Microsoft you've been asked to install does add a few better integrations with Office 365 if you're using that, and Cortana, I think. If you don't like the Microsoft one, you can always uninstall it from the app drawer or the Play Store on the installed apps tab.

You set one or the other as default .

If you're happy with the stock motorola one then there's very little,point installing,another one.

Never heard of a microscap one anyway
