Mini Computer: Retro Desktop

A whole little world, right on your phone.

Mini Computer turns your Android phone or foldable into a playful retro desktop. Open movable windows, type on tactile on-screen keys, use a virtual trackpad, and follow an idea wherever it goes.

MAKE SOMETHING SMALL
Write and save notes. Draw pixels, build four-frame sprites, sketch simple vector shapes, make a tiny page or slide layout, and organize your next project on a task board. Import, export and back up your local virtual files.

TINKER WITH AN IDEA
Try JavaScript in DevLab. Explore a small spreadsheet, selected SQL queries, regex testing, JSON and Base64 utilities, graphing, and a shell-like terminal. These are approachable tools for experiments, with supported commands and formats rather than full desktop software compatibility.

TAKE A LITTLE BREAK
Play Minesweeper or Solitaire. Watch patterns evolve in Conway’s Game of Life. Explore arcade demos and the rest of a collection of 32 tools, games and demos.

PICK YOUR KIND OF NOSTALGIA
Choose six vintage-inspired shells: Tide, Ivory, Ember, BlackBox, Phosphor and Studio. Switch between laptop, trackpad and fullscreen views. Supported fold features can align the desktop and controls with a device crease; simulated form-factor presets are also available.

A LOCAL LITTLE WORKSPACE
Use local tools without creating an account. Optional HTTP and web-reading tools need an internet connection. Save or export work you want to keep: some tool states last only for the session, and uninstalling or clearing app data can erase local files.

Mini Computer is a desktop simulation. It does not install Linux, run native PC applications or connect to a remote PC. The terminal and SQL tool support selected commands. The arcade and video-timeline tools include demos; WirePeek is a simulated network teaching display.

The first release is free, with no ads or in-app purchases.

Make. Tinker. Play.
Mini Computer — a whole little world.

Now and then, after a Mines win, an export or a task moved to Done, Mini Computer may show the store's rating window. You'll see it rarely: only after a few days of use, and at most once every four months.
