★★★★★ Jacob Dodds · Jun 15, 2026

Absolutely stunning design, love your app pack as well. Can't wait until this has more features. Please consider making a messaging app as well, I'd love that design style.

★★★★★ Macks NotCool · May 28, 2026

Awesome! BTW on the play store page, add "frutiger aero" to the title, so it will show up in search results for Frutiger aero.

★★★★★ Thamabus Wimoonsing · May 4, 2026

I love this, Launcher like this is very rare noway, But can you add ability to edit individual app icons ? Like choose icons from icon pack, Because some icons isn't apply to some app make it look off
