Go Launcher EX vs Hola Launcher

GO Launcher offers over 10,000 personalized themes and over 25 transition effects.

The launcher lets the user customize the desktop to their heart's content, giving the option to increase the desktop grid size to a maximum of 10 rows and columns, or disable the status bar, dock and icon labels. Users can also adjust the font and size of icons.

Infinite scrolling can be enabled to allow the user to cycle through their homescreens and app drawer pages without needing to change direction when they hit the last page.

Users can hide apps in the free or paid version in the app drawer.

GO Launcher EX allows the user to sort their apps by title, date of installation or frequency of use; create folders for apps; and hide unwanted apps.

Go Launcher EX is free to download and use, though there are in app purchases to unlock certain features and theming elements. There are also in app advertisements in the free version.

The GO Launcher Dev Team wants the users device to be customized with more than just a launcher. GO Weather, GO Locker (a lock screen replacement), and GO SMS Pro offer even more customization to the device. This is great those that are looking for a consistent design.

It is easy to sort apps into folders in the app drawer, on the desktop, and on the quick launch bar.

Hola organizes apps in folders such as Media, Education, Themes that are then accessible from the homescreen. If something gets miscategorized it can be fixed manually. Once one of the folders is open it's possible to swipe horizontally to switch between folders. All apps are also available from the app drawer where they are organized alphabetically.

Hola weighs just 2.3MB and does not use a lot of system resources.

There are so many ways to customize the home screen. And they're user created as well. There's so much variety

Hola is one of the rare modern launchers that works with Android 2.3 and later.
