Nokia has released a launcher app for Android platform, which is still in beta but this is the first Android app Nokia has made public. Microsoft bought Nokia recently and move ahead with Windows Phone / Lumia series. But Microsoft didn't buy whole Nokia. This app is from one of the original Nokia group, one of the group Microsoft hadn't bought.
Z Launcher is very customizable and simple to use. It is much different than conventional Android launcher apps. Z Launcher features clock, calendar and appointments on the top, and list of apps according to the time - Z Launcher learns the pattern on how you use your apps and shows them accordingly. It shows some sets of apps in the morning and another set of apps in the evening. It not only shows apps in the list, also contacts and meetings reminders.
Z Launcher also has finger gesture feature called "Scribble". Just draw the first letter of the app and it shows relevant list of apps and details for that letter.
Z Launcher is currently in a pre-beta release. You can head over to zlauncher.com and click on the download link to download the app to your phone directly.
Z Launcher works with app major phones and phones running Android 4.1. CyanogenMod phones or any phones which are rooted are not supported.
