I don't use the built-in launcher of Android Marshmallow. My favorite is always Apex Launcher. I customize it to adjust the icon density and to remove the dock.

I have three screens, this one is the default one. The others contain sensitive information (e.g. work calendar, personal notes) so I won't show them. Every screen follows the same pattern: rows of most used application icons and a few important widgets.

The weather widget is mostly useful for the weekends when we want to plan the family activities.

The news widget is a quick way to see what is going on with the world.

Whenever I have some time to read my books, I always do that. Having the ability to jump quickly to where I left off is important to me, hence the book widget.

The analog clock widget seems to be redundant (there is always the digital version on the top right corner) but that is the fastest way to get to my list of alarms (since tapping it will launch the clock application).

Last but not least, the wallpaper is random. Every day I got a new one because I use Muzei. I switch between different Muzei extensions every now and then, what I use right now is the HD Space extension.
