Description
I recently got one and noticed that my battery life was really bad even though the size of the battery was similar to my old phone.
I checked the battery usages per app (Settings -> Battery -> Battery usage) and noticed that Moto App Launcher was taking up 30% of my total battery usage.
I replaced it with Smart Launcher 6 and this one shows up as having used less that 1% of my battery. This has been consistent, after checking it several times over the course of several weeks.
I think any launcher app should do, as I don't remember ever having a launcher app that uses as much battery as Moto App Launcher.
Hope you found this useful. Cheers.
Notes
My specific phone was a new Moto G35. It was not rooted or altered in any unusual way.
