CheatCode Launcher

Turn your Android home screen into a set of cheat codes.

CheatCode Launcher is a fast, clean, gesture-based Android launcher designed to make opening apps and actions faster—even with one hand.

Instead of hunting through grids of icons, launch apps, shortcuts, actions, and more with simple combinations of up, down, left, right, and tap.

Learn the codes for the things you use every day, and your favorite apps become muscle memory. No folders to open. No icons to hunt for. Just enter a code and go.

Launch faster with cheat codes

Assign your own gesture combinations to almost anything you want to access quickly:

• Launch apps and Android shortcuts
• Open collections of apps with a single code
• Trigger media controls and launcher actions
• Open URLs or perform actions
• Run Tasker tasks directly from a gesture

Your codes are completely customizable, giving you fast, one-handed access to the things you use most.

Build app-to-app workflows

After Shortcuts lets you link multiple shortcuts together. Choose up to 3 shortcuts to appear after you close a particular app, making it easy to jump into whatever comes next.

Email → Teams, Calendar, or Slack.
Camera → Photo editor, Gallery, or sharing.
Maps → Music, Messages, or another destination.

Search when you don't know the code

Gestures aren't everything. Quickly search your installed apps and shortcuts when you can't remember a code—or just don't want to use one.

• Fast app and shortcut search
• Clean, organized app drawer
• Keep a minimal home screen without losing access to anything

Add the widgets you already use

CheatCode supports third-party Android widgets, so you can combine useful information and controls with your gesture-based home screen.

Make your home screen yours

Go minimal or build something completely your own:

• Create custom themes
• Support for third-party icon packs
• Automatically switch themes based on time, charging, media playback, Do Not Disturb, notifications, and more
• Customize colors, backgrounds, layouts, and gesture boxes
• Adapt layouts for foldables and other widescreen devices

Save your favorite setups and switch between them whenever you want.

Built for the way you use Android

CheatCode Launcher is designed for fast, one-handed navigation without giving up customization. Launch apps with less effort, reduce home screen clutter, turn repetitive actions into gestures, and build muscle memory for the things you do every day.

Whether you want a minimal launcher, productivity launcher, gesture launcher, or highly customizable home screen, CheatCode gives you a faster, cleaner way to use Android.

Your home screen. Your codes. Your shortcuts.

Accessibility Service

CheatCode Launcher uses Android's Accessibility Service only for optional shortcuts the user turns on: lock the phone and open the notification shade (double-tap or swipe on empty home, or a matching cheat code), and recents, quick settings, the power menu, and screenshot (cheat codes). The service does not read screen content and does not collect or share data.
