Icon Pack Search
I should be able to search a 3rd party icon pack and choose icons. That is what is normal and on all launchers out there. How can this be missed? Bit of a let down that this basic feature is missing.

Any chance of a Metro style launcher? really miss the simplicity and customization
The metro style that windows phone's used to have was great, really simple, everything important at hand, and easily customizable, the live tiles were way better than anything that you can get now. i even tried some launchers that try to emulate that and they fail big time

when you change a single icon and want it to adapt to a new icon pack every time.. this needs a toggle
when you change an icon say I changed it for calendar to a different icon pack there is no way of making it so that the next time u change the default icon pack.. the custom icon changes with it... so there needs to be an icon pack reset button or something in the launcher settings menu for resetting the icons into the default icon pack

sub folders
Sub folders on the home screen would be helpful if possible so a folder within a folder. Not sure if that's possible with Android though.

An option to change the fill of 'same shaped' app icons to white or black instead of an averaged out colour of the colours in the app icon.
It's useful as it adds consistency to the app experience. Often some icons are difficult to see be because of their fill. (Eg- Google photos has a blue background). You may also get the white backgrounds turning to black inside dark mode. It's subtle, but sensible.

Rectangle
I can't customise the size of the icons. I want my maps icon large so when I'm in a hurry I can hit it easily. I want my email medium because I use it a lot. I want my banking app small because I don't want to launch it by mistake. A grid of identical squares looks very anonymous, a variety of sizes is easier for my brain to remember what I'm looking at and hence how to navigate to what I want. I won't use this launcher till it allows me to do that. ie all the usability of…

Apply icon pack only for Homescreen icons
Option to apply icon packs only for apps on the Homescreen would be nice. This will allow the AppDrawer to be excluded from icon packs, so the AppDrawer will continue to show original icons.

Caching icons in backups and Microsoft account
Often icon packs come with thousands of icons, most of which are irrelevant for the user. In addition to adding support for searching icons using keywords, can you cache the icons applied by the user to his/ her Microsoft account and include them in the Launcher Backups? This will make icon customisation much faster if you provide a 'Previously Applied Icons' section when choosing an icon/ icon pack. It is okay if the original icon pack needs to be installed on the device for this purpose.
