[dev here] The Internet access is required only for the daily wallpapers and nothing else. The messages pop up based on date. Many users seem to like it but if I hear any more complaints, I'll consider removing them.
I think you should mention the differences b/w Olauncher and your launcher in the readme. That will make it clear to people why they should give this a try.
[Olauncher dev here] There's no Firebase integration in the Olauncher and never was. It literally collects no data. The releases on the Play Store, F-Droid and Github releases [APK] are all built from the same codebase, which is available on Github. Not sure why it's flagged.
I made a minimal Android launcher called Olauncher during the pandemic. It now has a million downloads with 4.8 rating. A year ago (Jan, 2023) I launched the pro version, called Pro Launcher, and it's doing well.
I have been using a solo WhatsApp group as my "notes app" for years. Quite common with Android users. But when I needed a dedicated notes app to get a little more organised, I couldn't find anything satisfactory. The popular notes app are way too complicated for my purpose. The lesser knowns usually don't have a good UI/UX. And there's also the issue of privacy.
OP here. I checked out your app and it's pretty good. I think I'll stick with no icon launcher. That way, users will have choices based on their preference of icon or no icon look. :)
OP here. I have been wasting too much time on my phone during this pandemic. I had to delete my most used social media accounts permanently to fix this. While that was helpful, it wasn't enough. I wanted to bring down my smartphone usage even further and that's when I stumbled upon minimalistic launchers for Android. Used them, loved them and decided to make one myself and open source it. Well, today's the day.
Presenting Olauncher! A minimalistic, free and open-source launcher app for Android. Now available at Play Store and Github. I hope you find it useful.
Yes. You'll be left with a messaging plus broadcasting app. I'm building it for people who waste a lot of time on twitter but can't leave the platform for various reasons. I thought removing the time consuming parts might help.
I published a minimalistic launcher app[0] recently and I was wondering if I can add a voice assistant in it to execute simple commands like "call someone" or "search this". Google assistant is completely off on my phone.
Now this looks amazing. I hope that at some point it will exist outside the browser. If they had an Android SDK, I'd add it in my app right now.
