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.

Ratings and reviews

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 ìt. It took a few days to get used to, but now its so fast, easy and efficient. ☆☆☆☆☆☆

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.
