Description
A truly minimalist launcher app. When you press the home button, the launcher pops up as if a folder is opening on the app you're currently using. Just because our launcher is minimalist in appearance doesn't mean it's minimalist in functionality. Enjoy powerful features you won't find in other launchers, including:
- Pop-ups a floating home launcher without stopping the behavior of the app you're currently using. - Create sub-folders within folders to efficiently manage your apps. - Supports useful Auto-folders, such as Most Used, Recently Updated, Notifications and many others. - Force adaptive icons on old fashioned app icons for a uniform app icon look. - Supports various shapes of adaptive icons. - Quickly search for apps by typing the first letter of a word. - Search for apps with their English names even when you set another locale on the device.
Easy and fast. Don't hesitate to give it a try. Thank you!

Currently, use another launcher called Square Home by this developer which is awesome. I am currently trying this and really like the concept of using the home button. Noticed a bit of text cut off on apps that are double lined in naming. With some tweaking I can see this being an excellent launcher. Trying to get this setup to use Square Home as the secondary launcher when double tapping the home button.

The app is a really nice idea. The only issue is with its documented problem with navigation gestures. Once that problem (which I doubt due to the Android limitations) is ironed out, the launcher will become a productivity machine. Other improvements required: 1) Add recent app slots or an auto-folder for the same 2) When app is launched and background is clicked, then popup should hide itself.

This app is perfect for phones with a customizable button! My only UX suggestion is that tapping outside the popup should close it. But yeah, thanks for a great app! I definitely went for the lifetime purchase!

The scrolling stutters like crazy, terrible experience with even just a single folder added. I've reached out to the dev with the mentioned bug a long time ago, still no fix. Please change the scrolling API used in your apps. Why do other apps have smooth scrolling but this app doesn't?

Aspect ratio is not proportional to the screen. Text is way too big, and inability to adjust the height of the popup is its major downfall

Claims to support forcing "old-fashioned" icons, but aside from picking a third party icon theme there is no way to force the use of non-adaptive icons that I can see.
