Launch Editor's review

byEddie Cho/ November 06, 2013

Appeal:Launch8 brings a fresh take on the modern Start screen by giving you access through a familiar user path to your apps, now more commonly found on mobile devices.

Tweakable:In addition to its clean look, the app dock's effects can be customized by color and transparency. Icon sizes also scale accordingly to size, should you opt for a larger dock. You can also add both desktop and modern apps.

Accessibility:Recent apps and files pop up in a drawer-like fashion, similar to the drawer found on OS X's application dock.
