You could always use a different launcher to do this. I like Nova Launcher, but there are lots of good options.

Nova being bought out by a third party ad company made that a no go for me nowadays :(

KISS launcher FTW. I could never go back to a standard launcher now.

You can still use the APK of the version before the buyout. That's what I'm doing until I find a mature replacement

Custom launchers are a huge no to me if they don't support Quickswitch... thanks again to Google/Android for breaking the animations....

I hope that A14 fixes this.

In loving Kvaesitso. It integrates really well with Nextcloud and Google Drive. And has a ton of other cool features.

My current goto for an alternate launcher is Ruthless Launcher
