About this app

The traditional home screen we know was made more than a decade ago when phone screens were smaller than your credit card. Smartphones keep growing, but not your fingers. The minimalist Niagara Launcher makes everything accessible with one hand and lets you focus on what matters.

🏆 "The best Android app I've used in years" · Joe Maring, Screen Rant

🏆 "It changed the way I look at the full device—big time" · Lewis Hilsenteger, Unbox Therapy

🏆 Among the best launchers of 2022, according to Android Police, Tom's Guide, 9to5Google, Android Central, Android Authority, and Lifewire

▌ Top reasons to use Niagara Launcher:

✋ Ergonomic efficiency · Access everything with one hand - no matter how big your phone is.

🌊 Adaptive list · In contrast to a rigid grid layout used by other Android launchers, Niagara Launcher's list can adapt to your needs. The media player, incoming messages, or calendar events: everything pops in when it needs to.

🏄‍♀ Wave alphabet · Efficiently reach every app without even having to open an app drawer. The launcher's wave animation does not only feel satisfying but also helps you navigate your phone with just one hand.

💬 Embedded notifications · Not just notification dots: Read and respond to notifications right from your home screen.

🎯 Stay focused · The streamlined and minimalist design declutters your home screen, reduces distractions, and is super easy to use.

⛔ Ad-free · Having to endure advertisements on a minimalist launcher designed to keep you focused does not make sense. Even the free version is also completely ad-free.

⚡ Lightweight & lightning fast · Being minimalist and fluid are two of the most important aspects of Niagara Launcher. The home screen app runs smoothly on all phones. With just a few megabytes in size, no space is wasted.

✨ Material You Theming · Niagara Launcher adopted Material You, Android's new expressive design system, to make your home screen truly yours. Set an awesome wallpaper, and Niagara Launcher instantly themes around it. We went one step further by bringing Material You to everyone by backporting it to all Android versions.

🦄 Personalize your home screen · Impress your friends with Niagara Launcher's clean look and customize it to your needs. Personalize it with our integrated icon pack, fonts, and wallpapers, or use your own.

🏃 Active development & great community · Niagara Launcher is in active development and has a very supportive community. If you ever have a problem or want to voice your opinions about the launcher, please join us:

Hey, it's a great launcher and bought it at the first try. However a issue to report, since Feb update of Android 12 on pixel6, the gesture return home animation seems broken, as if the window doesn't know where to draw back to and residue sometimes on the screen edge. Tried the stock launcher and no problem, think you'd look into that. Thx!

Long term user here since few years ago. Have always been my go to launcher even switching phones, was using free version, it is quite enough, yet I bought the pro last month just to show my gratitude and appreciation to the dev, you have been doing a good job making a daily drive launcher that smoothen the phone use. One thing I'd like to have though is plain text drawer without even the dot, text only, then it would be everything I wanted. All in all, 5 stars without a doubt. Thank you.

I was looking for a way to break my doomscrolling habits and change my relationship to my phone, and this has done it. It's just featured enough that I can make my home screen useful, but deliberately minimal enough that it forces me to think differently and deliberately about what apps I'm using. The pro subscription is a fine price to pay so long as it keeps being maintained and improved. I'd love to see support for adding a second widget stack to the favourites list.
