It was purely accidental, when I was looking for the sync of Sticky Note (a very well-know note taker from Windows) across my devices. Then, a miracle happened when I found an apps called "Microsoft launcher". This was quite ironic and funny, because I just wanted to sync the notes into My SUPER DUPER OLD SAMSUNG NOTE 5. So, I had gone through the sea deep and sky high, just to integrate Sticky Note into my dying Samsung Note 5.
Well, I used to be quite a tech geek, but time took that away, which was something I needed to rekindle. At first, I was just planning to switch between interfaces (TouchWiz Samsung & Windows Launcher), which was totally troublesome just to get my note contents on the phone. Then, I dug a lot deeper into the info regarding my Samsung Note 5 launcher, and to my dismay and surprise, Samsung Note 5 manufactured in 2015, even with Nougat OS, this beauty was still equipped with the obsolete Touchwiz (While currently, the new phones are using Samsung Experience or One UX). Problems I faced with TouchWiz by Samsung:
- Every time, after restarting the device, I had a hard time keying in the pin. Yes, imagine you can never login with pin while your fingerprint is temporarily overwrote by pin.
- The change between apps, is ridiculously slow. Yes, very slow
- Screen can be irresponsive until I need to close all apps.
- It is very hard to move apps and group them together, with a maximum of 9 apps per group view.
Common Strategy
I did a lot. I mean a lot of reading online to re-boost my Note 5. But to date, the following methods have either been temporarily or not effective at all:
- Clear cache (very very temporarily)
- Soft reset (over time, the phone will continue to lag)
- Factory reset (again, after 1 month, with images, the phone will lag again)
- Ensure phone memory at least 1 GB free space, else it will start to jam up

After trying the Microsoft Launcher (Downloading Size: 14 MB), it was fantastic in term of interface feeling and definitely the speed! The customisable home-screen and pages are very convenient. Albeit, the overly sensitive on the touching speed, everything was so good that I set Microsoft Launcher as the default now. Pros are:
- Smooth interface and used up very less memory and storage
- Wallpaper auto-change feature made my days jolly.
- Customise the icon design, size, and colour!
- Most importantly, you can group up to 10 icons on one view (this save a lot of my view space)
However, I did notice a few bugs with this launcher. Cons are:
- Apps cannot show notifications on the apps icons (bummer)! This is very very important. But then, again it feels less distracting as well, since I am a bit of OCD on the clearing the red numbers
- The design of UX is very very highly changeable, and grouping of apps is quite convenient. However over time you can feel a bit of lagness when opening those rarely used apps.
