Gammy Launcher

Gammy Launcher turns the Android phone you already own into a familiar, flip-phone-style home screen. It is made for people who want a simpler, easier-to-use phone without buying separate simplified hardware.

Instead of a crowded modern phone interface, Gammy Launcher gives you a classic dumb phone experience with modern amenities: simple screens and menus built around a classic phone keypad. The phone can be set up for the everyday basics: calling, text messaging, trusted contacts, photos, alarms, timer, calendar, radio, camera, navigation, Wi-Fi setup, and simple settings.

Gammy Launcher can become the default Android Home screen, so the simple launcher, phone, and messages experience is what the phone opens to, while the phone owner stays in control. Gammy Focus is a separate normal-app package for primary phones that should not become the Home screen.

Gammy Launcher is designed for adults and seniors who want the simplicity of a classic dumb phone without giving up modern amenities, and for anyone helping a family member set up a simple phone. It helps make use of the Android phone someone already owns instead of starting with separate simplified hardware.

Medication list: Gammy Launcher includes a medication list where the phone owner or a helper can save medication names, doses, schedules, and optional notes. Entries are typed in by the user and stored on the device. The list is informational only. Gammy Launcher does not give medical advice, set doses, sound alarms or send notifications at medication times, monitor whether medicine was taken, or contact anyone on your behalf. To add or remove medications, open MENU > SETTINGS > SETUP > MEDICATIONS; no PIN is needed. Once at least one active medication is saved, a read-only MEDICATIONS shortcut also appears on the main MENU.

Gammy Launcher may ask for permissions that are normally used by phone, messaging, home screen, alarm, calendar, camera, microphone, contacts, notification, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and location apps. These permissions support the features that the user enables, such as selecting Gammy Launcher as the default home screen, default SMS app, or default dialer.

Location access is optional and supports user-started navigation and Android Wi-Fi setup. Weather forecast updates are unavailable in this release. Gammy Launcher does not send location to Open-Meteo or another weather provider.

The launch version of Beau uses local rule-based task support. It does not download an advanced AI model or model pack.

Gammy Launcher does not sell user data and does not include ads.

Gammy Launcher is not a medical device and does not diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any medical condition. Consult a qualified healthcare professional for medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.
