Comments on Alpine Launcher for Android

★★★★☆ Jenson Flint · May 10, 2026
Nice app, The lack of an app draw setting is the one thing stopping me from dairying this launcher.
★★★★★ Ravi kumar · May 5, 2026
Aweosome app please keep adding more features like notifications badges not working on app icons, notifications are not allwed in app permission even if we want to allow it manually. Give icon size select option. And try to make notification bar with control center option in side. Belive me this app will be hit. I love the mobile interface apps please connect me if want some genuine feedbacks. Regards
★★★★★ 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.
★★★★★ Moolji · May 12, 2026
Yes, yes yes, bring back the Skeuomorphic design. Thank you so much.
★★★★☆ Andon Stayton · Jul 4, 2026
Works extremely well! This may be a bit nitpicky, but a bit more transparency about the data collected from things like location, notifications, etc. would be nice. Is the data kept on the device? Is it actually collected at all to make the functions work? Is it stored somewhere else? The Play Store says that data is sent to a third party, and I would just like to know what's being done with that data. Maybe I missed the Privacy Policy somewhere!
★★☆☆☆ John · Aug 5, 2026
It's vibe-coded, and the cracks start to show once you actually start using it for productivity. Sure, the spectacle of seeing early iOS UI on your home screen is novel and all, but try to do anything quickly and it gets really annoying. Firstly, it's sluggish. It takes forever to add apps to the home screen, to return to the home screen after app switching, even the "classic keyboard" feels awkward. Going into the deepest parts of the built-in Settings reveals the code to be AI generated. Sad.
