Ratings and reviews

First app I installed on my Surface Duo. Worked well to start, though it did get buggy after awhile. Installed on my Google Pixel Fold and it looks great! The front screen is tighter, but I can still squeeze four rows of icons. The inside double-wide screen display the app as separate panels. Perfect implementation. Widgets work well on my three additional home screens. Live tiles are hit and miss. Some always work, though others like Outlook Mail work when they want to.

Nostalgic and a very useful layout. However it's seemingly abandoned and runs very poorly particularly on Pixel devices. It seems to run better on other devices so milage will vary. I would love for it to be updated to run on modern hardware and switch back do daily-driving it, but unless that happens, it's just too darn laggy.

Probably the best implementation of the late Windows Mobile start screen. It has all the bells and whistles you'd expect and, to a casual user, looks the closest to Windows Mobile you'll get. Unfortunately, it's not perfect. Some of the animations are not the same or get cut off (such as the opening an app animation), and it suffers from absurd amounts of memory leaks causing it to crash often. But if you want that Windows Mobile experience this is the launcher to get.
