Google Experience Launcher (GEL) on Every Android 4.1+ Device!
In a welcome Google Search update, the Google Experience Launcher (GEL) will be coming to every Android 4.1 and up device! This is great news for Nexus owners (besides the Nexus 5) that did not get the GEL after updating to 4.4 KitKat.
You can manually update your Google search application with the APK file below. This will bring GEL on every Android 4.1+ device. I also have a video below showing off the launcher!
Let me know what you think about GEL!

Ur phones may not allow any software that’s not from google play store. Simply, uncheck it in ur security settings, allow software up, and try again. It should work.
