Any launcher that you install will ask you to move ahead with various instructions mentioned within. In case of Nova Launcher, you will be able to make multiple changes like picking an image from your own phone gallery (for the icon), setting up a variety of wallpapers, form the folders or even style out home screen.

Not just this, you will be able to set up dark mode through it and enable smart gestures very easily.
