Another notable feature is the absence of the app drawer icon. Google decided to do away with the app drawer icon and now if you want to access the app drawer, you can swipe up to access it.

Using the Daily New Wallpaper feature, you can automatically let the Google launcher to update your homescreen wallpaper everyday. This feature is similar to the the daily wallpaper change feature in Windows 10 unlocking screen.

Long pressing on the wallpaper will get you into the launcher settings. Google does give us an option to enable or disable the app suggestions feature and swipe to access Google Now. The rotation settings were present in the Google Now launcher for Marshmallow too.

To change wallpaper and to get access to swipe to google now feature, you need to flash the zip file linked above in recovery. However, if you prefer to install the APK instead or if you are not rooted, then you can download and install this fix.
