WHAT'S IN SMART LAUNCHER:


• Automatic app sorting

Apps are automatically sorted into categories, you won't have to waste time organizing your icons anymore! The advantages of automatic app sorting have been recognized also by Apple which introduced it in their App Library in iOS 14.


• Ambient theme
Smart Launcher automatically changes the theme colors to match your wallpaper.


• Designed to be used with one hand
We moved the items you need to interact the most, in the bottom part of the screen where they are easier to reach.


• Responsive build-in widgets
Smart Launcher includes a full set of responsive widgets.


• Customization
Smart Launcher is completely customizable. You can now modify every single color of the theme unlocking infinite possibilities of color combination. Change fonts on the home screen choosing among thousands of fonts from Google Fonts.


• Smart search
The Smart Launcher search bar allows to quickly find contacts and apps or to perform actions like searching on the web, adding a contact, or performing a calculation.


• Adaptive icons
The icon format introduced with Android 8.0 Oreo is fully supported and available for any Android device! Adaptive icons mean not only customizable shapes but also beautiful and bigger icons!


• Gestures and hotkeys
Both gestures and hotkeys are supported and configurable. You can turn off the screen with a double-tap or show the notification panel with a swipe.


• On-screen notifications
Smart Launcher will now show you which apps have active notifications without requiring you to download an external plugin. This makes the feature more stable and reliable.


• Ultra immersive mode
You can now hide the navigation bar in the launcher to maximize the screen space.


• Protect your apps
You can hide the apps you want and if you want to keep them secret, you can protect them with a PIN.
