Does someone know when to expect the new office 365 app launcher? The help pages are already updated but the launcher isn't visible yet:
Also wondering if it is possible to "pre-pin" apps for users in the app launcher.

@Adri Dijk, van, it's here today! https://blogs.office.com/2016/09/27/introducing-the-new-office-365-app-launcher/
Customers who have opted into First Release will see the updates later this month. Others will start to see the update in October.

The announcement states that "only customers with Exchange will be able to pin, resize and customize tiles" does this mean that the tenant needs EXO in their plan, or that a user needs an EXO license or something else?

Not possible yet for admins to control what apps are pinned by default for users, but we've seen that "administrative controls are coming". Until then, the launcher icons are determined by what products the user is licensed for. I'm also hoping that the admin controls will include the ability to pin or hide tiles for our users.

I am one of the few first release users at my company and I just got the new App Launcher today.
I'm sure the customizable part may be useful, but I certainly don't like the "look" of it. The black background isn't appealing at all, and 8 of the main apps are also black - the same color as the background. Is that supposed to happen?
