Best Launcher for Android

[Demonhog]

Hi, 

I have a CAT S50 but i really don't like the stock Launcher3,

I really love the feel and layout of CLauncher but they started to bloat and fill the launcher with ads,

Is there a similar launcher, but ad-free (cash is not a problem, i can buy ad-free, if needed)

Can you tell me how to get rid of CLauncher ads and bloat-icons that take you to google play to download a useless app (If there's a way)

I'm running android 4.4.2. KitKat

 

Thanks in advance.

Also, I would like if the launcher had themes/customizability

If you use Google Now (it's awesome you should try it if you haven't) use the Google Now launcher. Otherwise, go for Nova Launcher.

Nova Launcher is very solid for customization.

As others said, the Nova Launcher is a great launcher, it is very customizeable and you get all the features for free, you can buy a "Prime" version which comes with a few extra features but that's up to you to decide whether or not those features are worth it for you.

I've been using Nova Launcher Prime for at least 4 years.Tried at least 30 other launchers and I keep returning back to Nova. But if you want themes I guess you could try Buzz Launcher and Themer.
