Any Android based smartphone has a good native app launcher which can be used to view and launch different apps. However, in order to add some spice to this simple yet important area, apps are available at the Android market. LauncherPro is an Android app which promises to add new and exciting features to the existing Launcher screen for Android.

These features include:

• Super-smooth scrolling
• Up to 7 home screens
• Numbered notification icons for new text messages, missed calls and new emails
• New fancy homescreen transition effects

The Homescreen transition effects can be activated by going to Menu > Preferences > Homescreen Settings > Transition Effect.

LauncherPro’s latest version is 0.8.3 which is available for Android version 2.1 or higher.
