Unity Launcher, the Ubuntu launcher on our Android

Today I want to present an application that users of Ubuntu, the leading Linux distro in downloads, you will know very well, the application is none other than a version of its own Launcher. Ubuntu in your Android version, UnityLauncher is its name and then I explain its main characteristics.

First of all say that UnityLauncher it is not an official version of Canonical, although its graphic appearance and functionality are perfectly achieved.

What is Unity Launcher?

Unity Launcher is a free application available on the Play Store, a Launcher totally different from what we are used to so far and which we can make serve from any screen of our Android, we are running the application that is, it is even combinable with others Launchers o homes.

UnityLauncher It is a hidden bar that we can modify at will from its settings and configurations and in which we can add our favorite applications to have quick access from any application that we find.

Unity Launcher main features

• Total configuration of the Unity bar.
• Scrolling border configurable in width and height.
• Option to auto-hide after selected time.
• In & out animations
• Options for configuring the background color of the Unity bar as well as its transparencies.
• Option to display the Unity bar on the left, right, top or bottom.
• The background color of the bar applications can be selected independently from that of the Unity bar itself.
• Applications to add to the bar without maximum limit.

One of the things I like the most about UnityLauncher, is its compatibility to run from any screen of our Android terminal, either from the own Launcher that we have predefined or from any application or game that we are running.

For example, if you are one of the people who has tried the new Facebook Home and you think it is missing configuration options, try to try it again but with the combination of UnityLauncher, you will see how the experience is much more pleasant since we make Facebook Home become or look much more like a Launcher than a full-screen application.
