Comments on Before Launcher | Go Minimal for Android

★★★★★ Kelly Hart · Aug 4, 2026

I've been using this for about a week and so far so good. I'm using the pro version and can't rename apps, but otherwise I like it a lot. Edited: I really appreciate the fast response. I changed keyboards and was able to save my edited labels. Update: still loving this launcher. I changed from Samsung to Google phone and the functionality is still excellent.

★★★★★ Jayce Huyett · Jul 21, 2026

I was able to use the comprehensive customization features of this launcher to create an ideal minimalist UI for my disabled father to easily navigate his new smartphone with. There are options on this launcher to edit/create different windows and navigation gestures, but I wanted a single clean home-screen where everything was in one place for him. The Pro Version purchase was definitely worth it, for my needs. Launcher settings can also be easily locked-in with a third-party app locker.

★★☆☆☆ Ashim Garain · Jul 24, 2026

Average minimal launcher app, you can easily find better FOSS apps for free which contains more features. Though I have brought premium membership, but It's not worth for me. Its lack a good digital detox system with SOT, delayed app opening etc., widget supports, fast and easy accessibility, theme system is just changing wallpaper! No design change at all. Though I like its app pin function, gesture functionality.

★★☆☆☆ Leonardo Cipriano · Jun 15, 2026

Not restrictive enough like how minimalist phone works.

★★☆☆☆ Monika Wilczynska · Jul 7, 2026

The app is really great. It mostly does what it's supposed to do. Unfortunately, their customer service does not exist. You can write to them as long as you want, especially when there are no other solutions available. Take it as it is. Don't expect any help.
