Here is a safe “exclusive” configuration set for Android 7:

If you’re running Android 7 (Nougat) and want a polished, highly customizable home screen, Nova Launcher Prime remains one of the best paid launchers—lightweight, fast, and feature-rich. Below is a concise, practical post you can share on forums, social media, or a personal blog.

Modern launchers are heavy, often requiring newer API levels and consuming more RAM. However, the builds of Nova Launcher designed for Android 7 were lightweight and optimized for the hardware of that time (Snapdragon 820/835 era).

If you own Prime but lost access, you can download an older official Nova APK from APKMirror (trusted, signed by original dev):
