=== App X is missing from the app drawer, or app Y cannot be launched ===
It might be the app drawer is out of sync with the Android list of apps, for instance upon device firmware update. In the app drawer, use the "Refresh" menu to update the app drawer.

=== Why this CALL_PHONE permission ? ===
This permission is needed for direct dial shortcuts, so that the launcher can directly call the number you added on the desktop. This permission is requested by nearly all launchers.

=== How to use desktop (or panel, folder) bookmarks ? ===
Inside a desktop, long tap and select "Add item / Shortcut" then choose "Lightning Desktop bookmark". It will add an icon that keeps the desktop, position and zoom at time of its creation. You can now move this shortcut elsewhere, tapping on it will bring you back to the saved location. And it also works for panels and folders !
