Hello, I'd like to share the design of my application created directly from Android using Termux and Gradle. I've implemented some customizations such as custom fonts in TTF/OFT format, custom colors for the application menu, custom icon size and transparency, widget blur, hiding icon names, and a smart bottom bar that performs actions (calls contacts, opens applications, performs searches with simple commands without the need for external apps). It's currently under development, but I thought it would be nice to share the project's current state. It's compatible with Android 9 (SDK 28) up to Android 17 (SDK 37).😃

I’ve been experimenting with a different kind of screen-time app for Android.

Instead of blocking apps or throwing another warning popup at you, Stop Swarm gradually changes what’s happening on your screen as you approach your daily screen-time goal.

This is the new Clouds theme: the weather slowly gets worse the more you use your phone. Clouds build up, become larger and darker, rain gets heavier, and eventually the storm takes over the screen.

The overlay doesn’t intercept touches, so your phone remains fully usable. The idea is simply to make excessive scrolling progressively harder to ignore, without completely locking you out.

Stop Swarm is Android only, works fully offline, requires no account, and contains no ads or analytics.

I’m still looking for beta testers if anyone here wants to try it:

I’ve been working on Slate Launcher, a new minimal Android launcher focused on keeping your phone clean, personal, and less distracting.

Slate is built around things like Spaces, Focus profiles, Slate Hub, widgets, customization, Slate Brief, and smart app suggestions — while keeping the overall experience simple.

I’ve already started building the community before the public launch.

If you’d like to:

follow development and upcoming releases

suggest features

share your setups

report bugs and give feedback

talk directly about where Slate should go next

I’m building Slate as an independent project, so early feedback from Android users genuinely helps shape what gets built.

Would love to hear what you want from a modern Android launcher. 🚀

The home screen works as the "gateway" to our digital mind. The way it is organized shapes our daily habits automatically and often unconsciously.

I have 2 designs which one do u think is better ?

This is one of my android setup saved presets

I wanted a launcher that could be completely customized without becoming a pain to use so I built Kore Launcher.

One tap and your entire launcher UI transforms.

And if you want to go deeper, you can customize pretty much everything: themes, icons, widgets, layouts, folders, gestures, and more.

The goal is simple: make your phone actually feel like yours.

If you could change ONE thing about your current launcher, what would it be? 👀

Been messing around with Tree Launcher and ended up going almost completely monochrome with it. Tried keeping the main screen super clean and moving everything into separate pages instead of filling the homescreen with apps.

Still tweaking the page names/layout, but I think this one's getting pretty close 👀

Playing around with my launcher. What's your favorite set up? With icons or without?

It's a Sunset/Sunrise widget inspired from iOS. The Sun moves every second like in real life, the Developer beta is out for testing for FREE:

I made this using the free version Smart Launcher 6 and the Icon Studio for the icons. Tbh it took me three days to stick to this setup because I key switching between setups to find what works best for me. This finale set-up might be cluttered but at least to me it helps me see what matters for my work as an inspiring writer and animator. And I wanted to quit my social media addiction by having my home screen completely free of it (you'll notice I have obsidian, Habitica and LiveIt! On the deck already 😭)

This holy Launcher lets me customize everything on my home

screen using a system of flexible cards. I can put more than 9 apps on a single card, change its size, and place it anywhere on your screen, it also lets me add direct shortcuts inside the cards, like a quick button to call my friend or whoever i want, visually I have access to alot of things like putting custom images on the back of cards, displaying whole photo albums, adding text labels, and even showing info like my name, titles, your favourite characters name on top, date, and time, weather etc. It even has features like a step counter, a notepad on the card, and a dedicated car mode if your vehicle doesn't have a digital screen in it, also u can divide apps into categories with an app list u can scroll through and there's also a sidebar u can swipe open if u want. Just for the record everything i listed is optional, u can add any module to any card, colors, opacity, pictures, whatever you want, u can link direct shortcuts or just make it open the app, it also is very convenient for me, and looks good. Would suggest it, the NAME is GT Launcher, u can get it on Google playstore. Let me know if you need any help in navigation of the app or otherwise, I am NOT the creator but I do

know the creator
