From the person that brought you the rootless Pixel Launcher comes a rootless Android One launcher, complete with Google Now feed. Developer Amir Zaid (AmirZ) delivered the app, a modified version of the launcher from the Xiaomi Mi A1, earlier this week, allowing non-Android One owners to pick up the app without a rooted handset.

The Android One launcher itself is very similar to the Google Pixel launcher, most of the difference are in the looks department, and the port also supports a fully working version of the Google Now panel (something which has been traditionally hard to come by in third-party launchers).

It’s a development that should please those eager to make use of a more stock Android-like interface without going to much trouble. You can download it from Android File Host here, but make sure you don’t have the Google Pixel Launcher or Android One Launcher already on your device before installing it.
