   You talk about app launchers but for a person having issues with just   
   using the built in eco system of android, I seriously doubt they would   
   get anywhere close to changing the app laucher on their phone.   
      
   I know a fellow who sorry to say this but he is dumb as a box of rocks.   
   He wanted a new phone so when he went to the store, the android line at   
   the counter was oh so long so he went to the apple line and picked up   
   one.  He's been bitching that he can't do much more than make calls.   
   (or this is his version of the story).   
      
   I looked at his phone and as little as I know of IOS, I found that I   
   could get around it relatively okay.  I'm sure, much like when I got my   
   first android phone, I would get the hang of it after a bit.   
      
   The problem the OP probably has is much like my wife has with android.   
   She can't apply previously learned ideas to the phone.  Yes, you don't   
   have a mouse but you do have a finger.  And as I did, I read an Android   
   for Dummies type article/book when I got my phone.  It might have just   
   been help that popped up now and then as I used the phone but I learned   
   and applied my windows knowledge to the phone with adjustments.   
      
   I seriously doubt if the OP has issues with the Android, he'll have any   
   more luck with the IOS.   But that's my viewpoint.
