About this app

A launcher is not just a home, it needs to be an experience.

👨‍💻 Support Chat: t.me/HyperionHub
🗞 Hyperion Dock (Enable Google Feed): prjkt.io/dock

We believe that not only should everyone deserve a sweet, feature-filled launcher with a beautiful UX, we wanted it to always be up to date with the best of what Google has to offer at a consistent pace, as well as consistently pushing new tweaks and customization options that users want...without the bloat!

We streamlined this launcher for ourselves; by bringing the best features we love from many launchers found on the market and creating a unified experience - we can truly call this home. As usual, we have everything that a typical Launcher3 based launcher has, but much more!

Incredibly Full of Bugs! I like this launcher better than any others due to customizability. Too bad it's full of bugs. When coming from lock screen half the time the home screen is blank and I have to lock and unlock several times to get home screen. Other times unlocking home screen shows but cannot click on anything (frozen) so have to mash buttons until it finally snaps out of it. Also on lock screen fingerprint sensor location doesn't show. Really annoying, functionality crippling bugs.

Hyperion is a simple & clean android launcher that sets a great example other launchers should follow. After using Nova for over 10 years, I've finally made the switch to Hyperion. Initially the thing that stood out most to me, is that unlike many other launchers Hyperion isn't subscription based, but a one time purchase. All the essential customization features are there, but not so many that it bogs down the experience. Additional options would be appreciated, but not to the point of bloating.

I love the launcher, simple yet fully customizable. Also, the ability to have dark Google feed is great. Just a couple of things. The first, it would be nice to have more accent colors and not just the presets. Second, the launcher consumes more battery than I would like... Is not cool to have the launcher be one of the top battery consuming apps you have.
