Love everything about it so far. From the simplicity, functionality, sleekness to font selection and ability to add or hide as many home apps as the user decided (other launch set a limit on 3-8 which is a drawback for me). The only thing I would like to add so is the ability to choose your own wallpaper–which I am really looking forward to. If this was included, it would be the perfect minimalistic launcher imo! 🥇

I went to change my background photo and now that's behind a paywall?? Now many of the basic functions from before are behind a paywall... Guess I'll go looking dor something else again. - I've tested a lot of launchers trying to find something that's got just enough options to dial in a nice look but is still minimal enough. This launcher's definitely the best out of the approx. 10 most popular ones in the store. [...]

I've been using this launcher for some time now. I've tried about every launcher that advertises as minimalist and goo for productivity, and this the best I've found. I suspect that preferences on launchers is personal, depending on lifestyle and the way your brain works. This has the perfect balance of minimalism with personalization options and ease of changing settings within the launcher for me. I don't have to sacrifice apps I like and I can hide apps I don't want.

I can choose which apps I want to have easier access to and which ones I want to start minimizing my contact with (which has helped me completely remove some entirely). Not having icons makes things easier for me to find apps I need and not get distracted when doing something on my phone. I love this app, I just can't for the life of me figure out where it hides my weather app though that's probably a me thing.

This app is great. You don't have to pay or get a subscription for themes! You can customize colors and fonts all for free which is extremely helpful. The app itself is nice, I think the best one I've seen yet in this category. One thing though, the main page is very blank, it would be very helpful if a daily or even monthly to do list can be added.

If I had my home screen loaded with apps so they take up the whole screen, enabled long press to settings, but removed settings, I can't access settings. Can't even find the app settings in the app search. Wherever I would press on the screen didn't work. Nice app, please attend to the issue. More gestures, colors, and customizability would be great. 3 star to get attention of issue.

Using this launcher has impacted my app usage way more than I would have expected. It's doing exactly what I wanted and adding just a little friction and getting to apps that I wanted to use less. I'd say my only annoyance is when I swipe over to the app drawer if I use my gesture navigation (swipe up) to go back home it does not return to the home screen, it stays in the app drawer.

Edit: After trying out other launchers, none felt quite as right as this one, so I'm installing it again. It's still not everything but I like it. Original: As much as I like the simplicity of this app, the fact that it keeps changing names and what apps are on the home screen whenever they are updated makes it more trouble than it's worth.

I'm new to android, but have been non-stop looking for a launcher that is a cross between minimalist and classy/business. Thanks to this app I finally found it and love it. I only wish it gave a few more options like maybe a few widgets or some more gesture control options. Small things, like being able to choose where the app drawer opens up. This is pretty much the perfect launcher!

The style and customization options here are my favourite of all the minimalist launchers. edit: the bug with apps disappearing from the interface appears to be fixed now! thank you devs. there's not another launcher I'll ever need. and I have actually noticed a decrease in time that I use to look through social media, play games, etc. if you really limit yourself to just essential apps on the home page and hide ones you only occasionally use from the drawer, your digital wellbeing will improve.

I like to mix up my device layout so I don't get stuck in habitual patterns. I happily used this launcher layout for 2 years. Very nice way to keep my phone use more focused. It also cuts down on the phone addiction related to the colorful app logos. Makes my phone feel like a functional tool. With the latest update on my Googl Pixel, it caused glitches, so I uninstalled and I'm trying something else.

This app is amazing! I struggle with pretty bad phone addiction, and this helps me keep life simple! I love everything about it, but there is ONE problem which is most likely a bug. My apps are slowly disappearing from the apps drawer and home apps. For example, youtube music isn't accessible unless I go to settings and open it because it is not showing up in this launcher's app drawer. Other than that, 5 stars! I'm currently going to delete this due to the bug, but I'll be back if fixed! <333

I spent about 2 weeks with this launcher. I really like the ease of use and setup. The themes are also a nice added feature compared to other minimal launchers. One thing I noticed is that Home Apps would randomly be removed inexplicably. It appears that the second from the top is what gets removed. It doesn't happen throughout the day, only after going to sleep and waking up. My usual bed time routine is charging and setting an alarm. Perhaps one of those is the cause...

Very good Minimalist/Productivity launcher. I've been trying different ones and so far this one has the most features and is the most aesthetically pleasing. It's also easy and intuitive to use. I may not stick with this type of launcher, because I like widgets, but this app is highly recommended for anyone looking for a Minimalist app that will help them focus on productivity.

This is my favorite minimalist launcher: Clean interface and great features in the app drawer (automatic keyboard and character scroll). I rated 4 stars because it does not support a work profile, which is something I require. Even though I can no longer use the app because of this, I didn't want to provide a bad review because, otherwise, this app is the best. If the developer added a swipe up feature that searches contacts (like KISS or Sentien) as well as apps, this would be a 6 star app!

Clean interface with all the features I was looking for: custom font size, ability to rename apps, and the ability to add/remove "basic" apps/widgets like time/date/dialer/tasks. The alternative minimal launchers I've tried put these features behind a paywall and still didn't execute them as well as this app does. Edit: Everything above is still true, but the reviews about apps disappearing after an update are also true. For many people, including me, the inconvenience is worth a star.

I used to think this is a 5 star app. It was really helpful for a while, but just today, the app disappeared my finch app. And no matter how many times I force it to stop and reinstall the launcher, it won't display my finch app. This is very annoying because I've had this happen before with other apps, but a quick reinstall always fixed the problem. Now, nothing is bringing it back. And I use both of these apps on a daily basis.

At first I absolutely loved it, a perfect mix of customization and minimalism, it's almost perfect. One thing it's missing is being able to swipe left and from the bottom and have those open specific apps. And it's the second day using it and it's already frozen. I couldn't get to the apps page so I had to switch Launchers just to reset it. I'll try to keep using it, but if it keeps freezing I'll go back to Olauncher. I really like this one, so I hope I don't have to.

I have used this launcher for about a week, and so far I am satisfied. I used another minimalist launcher and I like this more. It has all the main features I need, like good customization, hidden apps, a minimal home page. However, I have one issue. I turned off the status bar, but after while it shows up again. Sometimes when I swipe to see notifications, the status bar will stay there when it should be hidden. Please fix this because then it would get 5 stars.

I used to use minimal phone for a simple home screen but I didn't like paying for it. After trying multiple "minimal home screen" apps, this one is one of the best. I can choose different fonts, colors, and widgets, and I love it! The only thing I would change is, if you don't have the year/day in progress widgets on, the home screen apps should be moved up so that there's not an empty space. Also, maybe a built in search engine feature.
