Action Launcher 3 implements everything from Nexus Launcher already

Action Launcher 3 Nexus Launcher features

Chris Lacy is the man. I embarrassingly told him that at last year's I/O party, but when a developer can take something as brand new as the leaked Nexus Launcher and in two and a half days release a beta of Action Launcher 3 that incorporates all those new features on top of the already impressive functionality of AL3, then that man deserves all the praise he receives.

Lacy has added the slide-up app drawer and caret (little arrow) above the semi-transparent dock. The date widget appears (but it is movable in AL3 and not part of a screen-width block like on the Nexus Launcher), and you can also add the Google 'pill' button on its own or as part of the date widget.

You can still use AL3's covers and shutters in the dock, but obviously a swipe up gesture will launch the app drawer instead, so you'll have to reverse your cover/shutter swipe direction. QuickTheme and QuickPage work fine with the Nexus Launcher features, but for obvious reasons you don't have Google Now integration in AL3.

You'll need to enrol in the beta testers group for AL3 (available on the Google Play page below) and you'll have to own AL3 plus ($4.99) to enable the Nougat-style features. Lacy has already fixed a few bugs and promises more features and improvements will be made in the coming weeks.
