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.

▌ 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.
🦄 Personalise your home screen · Impress your friends with Niagara Launcher's clean look and customise it to your needs. Personalise 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:
📴 Why we offer an accessibility service · Our accessibility service has the sole purpose of letting you quickly turn off your phone's screen with a gesture. The service is optional, disabled by default, and neither collects nor shares any data.

Absolutely fantastic. I have never felt so compelled to write a review before. It's clean, minimalist, and just a great luncher overall to clean up your screen or flex on your friend with your fancy Homescreen and leave their jaws hanging like lanterns. Or both. It's simple and offers enough customization just to get by, and navigation is smooth and buttery. Only way to make it better is to make everything free, but seeing how the whole project is funded by the Pro version, I thinks its fine.

Been my go to launcher for a couple of years now. I just switched to a folding phone for the first time and was curious if it would still be a good choice. It works just as well as always and has obtained all the same functionality. It's simple, sleek, and modern, allowing customization without trying to do too much. I'd recommend this to anyone who prefers a minimalist launcher that is easy to set up.

It's my own fault for purchasing the life time version of this based on reviews, without taking advantage of the trial offer. There are a couple things I like about it, and I've been trying hard to like it during the past 20 days. I finally got the home screen looking like something and organized some pop up folders and favorites to feel fairly comfortable. I love the look of the agenda, but can't figure how to include tasks... Changed Tasks to calendar events and it all looks good now.

Thank you for your review, Timothy.
Google Tasks aren't currently supported as it's a proprietary feature that isn't shared with other apps like calendar events. Check out our community (via the settings) for ideas on making the most of Niagara & for support. You can also write to us via Help & Feedback settings.
