Glide - Minimal Launcher

Poe Studios

About this app

Your phone, simplified.

Glide is a home screen launcher built around restraint. No icon grids. No widgets fighting for attention. Just the information you actually need, set in type that feels considered.

Five distinct themes let you choose the version of calm that fits you — from the quiet editorial of a broadsheet to the bold geometry of brutalist print design.

Themes
· Editorial — clean typographic columns, maximum white space
· Brutalist — high-contrast, bold, unapologetically structured
· Calm — soft tones, gentle weight, nothing sharp
· Index — catalogue-style, everything in its place
· Dot — amber dot-matrix display font, minimal palette

Widgets (all optional)
· Clock — time, date, and local weather at a glance
· Up Next — your next calendar event, always visible
· Now Playing — album, track, and playback controls
· Habits — a 5-week visual grid to keep your streaks alive
· Tasks — a lightweight to-do list that lives on your home screen
· Focus — a countdown timer with automatic Do Not Disturb
· Quick Apps — your three most-used apps, one tap away

App Drawer
Swipe up or drag from the pull handle to open the full app drawer. Search instantly or browse alphabetically. Glide learns which apps you reach for most and surfaces them at the top.

Designed to disappear
Long-press anywhere to open settings. That's the only persistent UI chrome — everything else is content. Hide any widget you don't use. The layout adapts and renumbers itself automatically.

No accounts. No tracking. No ads. Your habits, tasks, and preferences — stays on your device.
