Chameleon Launcher v1.9.175 Apk Full Version App With Complete Features (No Ads)
Style
Function
Chameleon earns high marks for style. Animations from one home screen to the other are sharp and responsive, and scrolling through content in the widgets is perfectly smooth (though a bit more notification that one is reloading after you pull to the top would be nice). The widget layouts shift to portrait or landscape orientation as appropriate, though content isn't always ideally adapted. For example, a long thin column e-mail widget in portrait is a full-width column in landscape that only really fits one e-mail at a time. Less extreme proportions tend fare the transition much better.
The biggest limitation for these triggered home screens is that there's only one screen for each scenario. HTC's Scenes changes an entire set of home screens, which I generally find needed if I'm going to be using a bunch of widgets and a wide variety of apps.On the plus side, switching between home screens (or dashboards, as they call them) is the same as ever - just swipe left or right. There's an overview mode from which you can add new dashboards (up to five), delete existing ones, and edit conditions for their launch.
Wallpapers need to be imported manually from the Gallery app through the Share menu in order to show up as options in Chameleon, which is a bit of a hassle, but not a deal-breaker by any means. There are a few serious usability limits on the individual widgets. Tapping a specific item in an e-mail widget doesn't load up Gmail to that message, or even the right mailbox if you have multiple accounts loaded up. Facebook and Twitter widgets will only launch into the native apps, no third party ones you may prefer. If they aren't installed, you get shunted to the web browser. For whatever reason, the Facebook widget needed regular re-authentication.
The Good
- Sharp design
- Innovative and useful trigger system
The Bad
- Some usability limitations
- Relatively high price
The Bottom Line
It takes a bit of mental rewiring to get used to home screens that are predominately full of widgets instead of shortcuts to apps, but the challenge does get you to rethink how you use your Android tablet; instead of just being a side-show, the widgets are the main event.
For $10, Chameleon may still be a little bit too much of a work-in-progress for some people, considering there are some fully-matured free ones, and even the big-name premium launchers only cost $4. Once Chameleon has a wider set of widgets available, the trigger system is fleshed out a little more, and the price is dropped a few bucks, Chameleon stands a good chance of having a long and healthy life in Google Play; who knows, maybe we'll even see a version cooked up for smartphones someday.
