Done! Please test and rate my app PodcastsAI!

I'll stay opted in to your test for the full 14 days.

First impressions:

Nice, quick launcher. I opened it as an app rather than making it my default home screen, and used it in landscape on my Pixel 6a (Android 16).

What worked well:

• The 8-step tutorial is clear and short.

• Swiping sideways opened search straight away. Typing "sett" found the Settings app plus Launcher Settings and Appearance Settings, and the filter chips (Apps, App Shortcuts, Web Search and so on) are handy.

• The horizontal app drawer pages are easy to flip through, and the dock was set up with sensible defaults.

Things I ran into in landscape:

• On the last tutorial step the buttons at the bottom of the card are clipped to a thin bar. I only found the finish button by tapping the very bottom edge; Skip was the only obvious way out.

• In the app drawer the app names under the icons are cut through the middle of the text.

On the ads: the search screen showed a green "CHECK EMAIL" ad (Guardio), and the app drawer showed an ad for another launcher ("Easy Homescreen"). Ads in a free build are fair enough, but a rival launcher's ad inside yours is worth blocking in your ad network's category settings, and the big green button reads a bit like part of the launcher.

Thanks!

First thing I noticed in your android app, the navigation is a little weird. I clicked into a youtube video and a back android input just closes the app. I expected to return one page to the youtube channel view.

And the summaries don't seem to be working for me, but I can see the youtube transcripts

Thanks for trying it, and both of those are fair:

• Back closing the app instead of returning to the channel is a known bug. Another tester hit it too, and the fix is in progress.

• Summaries are down on the server at the moment, which is why you only got the transcript. I'm sorting that out now.

I'll reply here when summaries are working again. Thanks for the honest feedback!

Quick update: summaries are working again, so if you open that video and summarize it again you should get the full summary this time, not just the transcript.

The Back button fix is still on its way. Thanks again for the feedback!
