Such a cool project! It's so clean and sleek. In the process of debloating my phone, I wanted a new launcher to reduce unnecessary clutter in the UI. I think the retro launcher is both visually and functionally wonderful. There are some limitations, but the kind devs responded quickly to my email inquiry and let me know they have lots of plans for this app. Thank you!!

This app is a great blend of minimalism and visual style. I LOVE that it already comes with its own icons on download; the 1-bit pixel art style is one I've been struggling to find for customization. It does have small bits of jank here and there, such as when hiding/unhiding apps & organizing folders. However, it isn't either noticeable and hasn't overall impacted my experience. The custom gesture settings are very handy and keep things smooth. Overall excited to see how this continues to develop!
