One of the great things about Android is how much you can customize it. An app that many Android owners use is Nova Launcher since it allows you to do things that your device’s original settings don’t. Nova Launcher is full of great features, but for some reason it lacks a “Themes” option.
Due to the lack of this option, users have no choice but to add their own icon packs and setups to give Nova Launcher their own personal touch. But which ones are with trying? Here are a few that you may like.
