The Pixel 2 launcher will work on all phones running Android Lollipop and above, but with the best features reserved for those running Android 8.0 Oreo (notification dots and the ability to change app icon shapes aren’t available without Oreo).
To install the launcher, download the APK from the link below. If you just want the launcher and don’t mind NOT having the Google app on the far left screen, allow Unknown Sources and just launch the APK.
However, if you DO want the Google app home screen, you’ll need to install the launcher as a system app on a rooted device.
You can either flash the zip file from the link below as a system app via TWRP, or do it yourself (see below).
Grab the APK:
To install the launcher as a system app manually, simply move the APK from your downloads folder to /system/app using a file manager like Solid Explorer. Once you’ve moved the APK, long press it and go to Properties, where you need to change some read/write permissions, like so:
User: R, W
Group: R
Other: R
Apply the changes and reboot your device. You’ll now have the Google app screen on the far left home screen of the Pixel 2 launcher.

Hey guys, forgot to mention there’s detailed installation instructions in the video description, hope you enjoyed this quick little video!
Didn’t work on android 6.0.1 Note 4.
nice video,how to create a folder on the homescreen for the apps?
It kinda lags/lagSpikes when using the app drawer and i am running on Nougat 7.0.0, with Snapdragon 625 and 3gbram
less talk more advantage
How do I get back to the original launcher if I’m not happy with the pixel 2. I have a galaxy s8 plus
Where can i get that wallpaper
How to get rid of it?
I still prefer stock Android, but having an official Google launcher helps out a ton if you happen to own a Samsung or other skinned Android device.
Will this make the phone run a bit smoother as well or is it purely cosmetic?
Will Pixel Launcher come to Samsung Mobiles officially ?
nice video!
Does this slow down the phone
Great video
