This is a full launcher replacement or a search app? If the former, why?

@vicky_buddie today it's a full launcher replacement. We feel that search needs to be an OS-level feature and accessible across apps.

Looks so cool. The video is a great explainer. Sadly, i can download it in France. :( Is is normal ?

@mrcalexandre sadly yes. we are expanding our data to cover other countries. Evie can only be useful when we have the right regional content indexed.

@davidzh Ok thank you very much for your help. I will wait. No problem, Congrats on the launch on ProductHunt, you will receive great feedback from the hunters.

I've been using this for a week and I think its the best launcher I've ever used. Its simple to use, minimalistic design (which I love), does what it says it does. So far I've had no issues and only have love for Evie.

@davidzh! What makes Evie different/the best from similar products?

@petrev01 we focus on structured search as the way to navigate your phone. Organizing content around entities allows users to be more direct with their intent, instead of having to think about finding the right app for it.

Awesome!

Would love to see this in the Australian market. When do you see it being available here?

I love how smooth and slick the functionality and UI are. However, it pains me to say that I probably won't be using this incarnation very often because I just love NovaLauncher. I've tried many home screen replacements but NL takes the cake. I WOULD use Evie if I could add it as a widget within NL. If only NL integrated your functionality within itself...

I hope this is available in Australia soon!

@jasonbereklewis I hear you Jason. We'll work hard to make it happen soon!
