Been a while huh...

Today Lawnchair 14 got approved by @GooglePlay!

For those oldschool people still enjoying Lawnchair 2, it will stick around for a while, it will now be known as Lawnchair Legacy!

Lawnchair Legacy will probaply not stay forever, as Google keeps increasing the minimum sdk version. Lawnchair Legacy already is already being blocked to download on some devices.

We are teaming up with third-party launcher developers (Smart Launcher, Niagara, Nova, etc.) to launch a survey (initially made by the Smart Launcher devs) to identify how widespread OS issues are for third-party launchers.

This critical feedback will help show our concerns to Google. We'll present the findings at a Google event in October, so we're aiming to gather as much data as possible to ensure accurate results.

Take the survey below to help improve the experience for all third-party launcher users:

AOSP 15 merge is still WIP and there's some broke stuff but should have less conflicts
