Any updates on this? I would also really like to disable the app drawer and just use my home screen as the single place to find my apps.

I came here looking for this exact feature request. There aren't ANY launchers that offer this. None.

Murena's "/e/OS" ROM has their "Bliss" launcher which behaves just like iOS - no app drawer, and all apps managed from the home screens. But that's not available separately.

I have been looking for an Android Launcher that offers this simpler option. Still nothing.

Please make this an opt-in feature - I just want all my apps in the home screens for me to manage, the ability to place widgets, and no app drawer... at all.

@cautious-bread I'm using Kvaesitso from F-Droid. It has all the apps in the app drawer (none in the homescreen) and perfectly meets my needs. The best launcher I've tried so far. Really recommend giving it a shot. Makes managing apps easier for me.
