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

Great launcher, very innovative. Lacks customization. I'd like to have multiple apps or widgets on one roll, but this launcher has no idea what are columns. You can't change the positioning of the alphabet, which makes the right side of the widgets unaccessible. I like to have an empty page just for my wallpaper, but that's also impossible.

Most launchers are stuck in the same fundamental design and I was looking for something that could actually make a difference in my life and this is it! The only thing that I am unsatisfied with is the implementation of widgets. I know that Niagara, like all launchers it seems, is focused around productivity but I think there's some room for toggling non productivity minded features. after all, I use my phone for both work and play!

clean smart start screen with favourite app. icons stacked on left side and an alphanumeric live library on the other. visually be aware of contrast issues with wallpaper, but it's simple to find a picture that works for you. I wouldn't use anything but Niagara Launcher on any of my Android devices. I give it 5 stars because, for me, it works exactly as I could hope for. 👍
