Apex Launcher failures fixed, new update now Available

Early this morning Android Does released an update to Apex Launcher that was supposed to bring a whole slew of new improvements and goodies. As many found out right off the bat, the update had some sort of issue that caused it to Force Close and not run at all. It didn’t take long for word to spread and the developer to get it fixed. There is now another update out for Apex, which still brings all the goodies you will see listed below, but this time it works. The fact that it works is probably the most import part of today’s update. Way to jump on that one quickly to keep your customers up and running.

So whats new in the recent update? A lot really. It was completely rebuilt on the Jelly Bean launcher and works on ICS based devices. Desktop items rearrange automatically and a way to switch to tablet UI mode. Here, take a quick read of what is new.

Rebuilt based on JB launcher (works on ICS too)
* Desktop items automatically re-arrange to fit
* Long press and fling to remove items
* Performance boost for homescreen and drawer
New features
* Option to switch to tablet UI
* Custom drawer grid settings
* Activity animation options
Other improvements and bugfixes
* Improved vertical drawers
* Custom widget picker (requires JB or root)
* Unlimited drawer tabs (pro)
* Fixed paid themes under JB
* Many misc. bugfixes
* Updated translations

Pretty awesome update really. If you happened to pick up the earlier update from this morning, then be sure to go update it again so it works.
