How to revert to previous Nova Launcher

Infinite scroll on the home page does exist.

Infinite scroll on the Nova special display doesn't exist ... yet, It makes moving a page a little cumbersome.

The fate of far too many apps - get it right, run out of significant things to update, updates add perception of value, so update just to mix it up and follow the fads.

Alienate your core base, wonder what went wrong.

When the problem doesn't change and you already have the classic solution for the market, stick with it.

THIS!
Same same w/HOLO LAUNCHER (HD).
Lot of commonality w/NOVA & APEX,just my personal preference.
Decided to check on the dev's spot on the Play Store,see if anything new of late,especially w/the intro of 5.0.
Sure enough,a new launcher:"Lollipop Launcher".
Some of the same as w/Nova,that awful white background in the app drawer.As others,I can overlook that,once the desktop is set-up.
However,it lost a LOT of the customization functionality w/the shortcuts available.
Extremely limited in that area,so much for "New & Improved".
I'm not faulting the dev,perhaps there's a limitation that I'm not aware of,but,the "old" HOLO Launcher HD still has the shortcut customizations as usual & works well w/5.0,only bug being an occasional disappearing dock,which can be remedied w/a shortcut/icon placed right above the dock & the dock re-appears,w/folders/icons/shortcuts intact.

Hell,for that matter,I'm good w/Jelly Bean.
IMHO KitKat nor Lollipop bring anything earth-shattering to the table.......
 
Welcome to Android Forums.
Go to the home screen page where you want the icon.
Go to app drawer.
Long press on the app icon you want on the home screen.
Keep holding it down.
When the home screen layout appears ... drag the icon to the desired location and release it.
