Create a Backup for Current Layouts and Settings

Total launcher

provides powerful backup and restore features through the Backup Center. The Backup Center can be accessed from the menu or the Launcher options.


Click the "+ button" at the bottom to create a backup, and all data including the currently set layout, options, folders, and tags will be saved.


To restore the created backup, click the backup name. Uncheck (default) the box below to restore the folders and tags at the time of backup creation. If checked, the current folders and tags will be maintained.


When the backup is restored, third-party shortcuts or widgets will need to be reconfigured. This is because the actual data for the shortcuts or widgets is on the third-party app side, and Total launcher cannot save them when backing up.


* Important Information *

All backups are stored in the app storage, so if you uninstall the app or reset the app's data, they will all be erased! Therefore, to keep your backups safe, use the "Export backup" function. You can save the backup as a zip file by pressing the "vertical 3 dots button" on the backup item you want to export and selecting "Export backup". If you are using the Google Drive app, you can save the zip file directly to the Google Drive folder.



To load the zip file saved this way, press the "+ button" at the bottom and select "Import Backup".


Thanks.

How to Customize Your Search Screen

 There are 2 types of search screens in Total launcher, which are open by the launcher actions: App search and Contact search. App search screen Many users often ask me how to customize the design of these screens. So, I'd like to explain how to do it here.  You should know first how the launcher action (ex: App search) works. When you invoke the launcher action, the launcher tries to search a most top app drawer widget. If the launcher has found an app drawer widget, it would be used to show the search results. Otherwise, it opens the built-in window with an app drawer in the screenshot. As you guess out now, since you cannot change the design of the built-in window, you should make a your own window instead. Here's the steps for the solution. 1. make a new window. 2. put an app drawer widget onto it. 3. customize the design of the window and the widget. 4. set "Action on open" to the launcher action (App search) in the window options. 5. open the window for your own...
