Add an option to disable launcher animations #11

In order to have even a more minimalist launcher, please add an option to disable launcher animations in settings page. This option would be great for increase performance in e-ink devices too (like Hisense A5 Pro & A5 Pro CC or any other e-ink device like Pinetable, Dasung, etc.)

Nice idea. At this point I am not sure how complex this would be, but I will look into it.

jooooscha commented 2 years ago

Which animations exactly do you mean? Do you mean the animation when swiping up?

ferlanero commented 2 years ago

Exactly, I mean the animations which occur when:

swipe up on the main screen to access app list
long press on the main screen to access settings
in settings you press over "Olauncher Clutter Free" to access list of hidden applications.

This will probably be easier after merging #30

Mathias-Boulay commented 2 years ago

This could be done via an interpolator "jumping" to the end of an animation, although I'm not familiar with jetpack compose

jooooscha commented 1 year ago

After considering, I think this is out of scope for this launcher. As far as I know, animations can be disabled in Android system-wide in the developer settings. I think that's a better place for this option.

Closing for now
