The future of Nova Launcher looks increasingly uncertain after a number of key layoffs to the dev team behind the popular third-party home screen replacement.

parent company Branch has axed over 100 employees in a spate of mass layoffs from the company.
This has affected key members of the team behind the third-party launcher, and the future outlook is uncertain just two years after Nova was acquired by Branch.

Another post from the official Nova Launcher X account states that the team has gone from “around a dozen” to just one full-time developer – the original founder Kevin Barry.
@ecksmc well this is too bad. I think I've been using Nova launcher for at least 8 years.
