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.

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

ā” Lightweight & lightning fast Ā· 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.
āØ Material You Theming Ā· 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.

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.

I've tried minimalist apps to limit screen time and surprisingly this one works best. I love how easily accessible the calendar is and how it automatically merged my Google and Outlook, love that it only brings up my music apps when connected to a speaker. Love the design and interface. I think more context-based apps would be cool, like you tend to use this app at a certain time of day so have it pop up. This is a clean, attractive, easy to use launcher. Worth the price for me.

Update: I love it. I've been using it for a year now. Just curious today & tried out 7 or 8 launchers. All were good but lacked the simplicity and minimalist features of NL. I don't want to have to group icons in folders, yr web have to open the folder everytime. Nor do l want my Home screen cluttered with my 235+ icons. Very Customizable which I love. Give yourself 7-10 days to get the feel of Ƭt. It took a few days to get used to, but now its so fast, easy and efficient. āāāāāā
