Feature description

Remove the Launcher Settings from icon from the apps list.

Why do you want this feature?

I find it strange to have the Laucher itself appear inside the Launcher's app list. There is already a way to access launcher settings, which is by long-pressing any free space on the homescreen. Is an additional icon really needed ?
It takes up an icon space for not much. A launcher does a good job if it helps launch your desired app faster, which means you should be able to visually find it fast. With one more icon in the list, this clutters the user's view.

Moreover, if you really want launcher settings to be visually very accessible, i'd suggest you put a cog icon in the right corner of search bar instead, which would consolidate the UI and UX between Fossify apps, and still provide an easy way to access settings.
