⚠️ Alpha Stage

Expect bugs, instability, and incomplete features.

Most Android launchers are just forks of AOSP’s Launcher3. I wanted to try something different—building from scratch while welcoming new developers and applying solid coding principles and best practices to keep the project alive for the long run. Open-source Launcher3 forks often end up abandoned because of their complexity, making it tough for newcomers to contribute. And, not gonna lie… a lot of them are still written in Java and rely on legacy APIs.

Meanwhile, many closed-source launchers are starting to get greedy—locking features behind paywalls and sneaking in trackers. My goal is to give everyone the joy of using powerful features without compromising privacy.

WhatsNew:

- Removed purple theme
- Revamped Settings UI

While you can download the APKs here directly, you should preferably use an F-Droid client so the app stays up-to-date on your device.
