Action Launcher 3 Updated With Improved Icon Editing

Action Launcher 3

Action Launcher has been updated to v3.7. The latest version of Action Launcher comes with various tweaks and adds two new icon-related features.

The first one is the Quickedit. The Quickedit UI for changing icons will be great for anyone with a few icon packs installed. It uses the Android bottom sheet panel to suggest alternative icons from your packs, and also links to apps like Photos and Dropbox so you can apply custom images as icons.

Second, Smartsize will resize the icons on your home screen so none of them will look too large or too small. This is similar to the Nova Launcher icon normalization feature which came a few months ago.

Changelog:

  • NEW: Introducing Quickedit, a brand new way of editing icons. Pick up & put down the icon, then watch as suggestions from your icon packs are automatically presented to you. No more digging around in all your icon packs to see which has the best looking icon for a particular app!
  • NEW: Quickedit contains shortcuts to uninstall an app, view the system info for the app and view the app in the Play Store.
  • NEW: Smartsize icons (Beta): marvel as your icons are automatically resized to match Material Design’s recommended icon size.
