About this app

Your phone, but calmer.

Yin Yang is a minimalist Android launcher built to reduce screen time, quiet the doom scrolling, and clear the clutter. A distraction-free home screen, gentle awareness tools, and the essentials you need, one swipe away.

🏠 Home Screen: Minimalism, made beautiful

• Grayscale icons, black and white themes, and clean typography for a non-distracting interface. E-ink friendly.
• Curated themes in true-black, pastel, gradient, or subtle 3D, with auto light/dark switching
• Live, dynamic, and static wallpapers plus custom fonts, clocks, and home layouts

🌿 Mind Space: A focus launcher for digital wellbeing

A dedicated page for awareness, focus, and digital wellbeing. You set the boundary, the app holds it. A gentle digital detox by design.

• Mindful Pause: A calming breath before distracting apps open. A soft moment to ask: do I really want this scroll? Six in ten pauses end in a walk-away.
• Mindful Timer: Set a session length to reduce screen time on the apps that eat it. When it's up, a gentle cooldown. You stay in control.
• Focus Mode: Hide everything except the apps you allow. Start anytime, or set schedules that remind you when it's time. Soft sessions let you leave early. Strict sessions hold the line.
• Awareness tab: Screen time, pickups, and what you reach for after each unlock. Plain data, no report card.

🧠 Made for ADHD brains

• Grayscale, clutter-free screens lower visual noise. Three predictable pages, so everything lives where you left it.
• Notes, to-dos, and calendar one swipe away: the external memory your brain should not have to be.
• Gentle pauses catch autopilot app-opens. Strict Focus holds the line during deep work.

📌 My Space: A productivity launcher with widgets

Widgets that earn their place. Every essential, none of the noise.

• Built-in widgets for Notes, To-Do, Calendar, Weather, App Folders, and quotes
• Third-party Android widgets like Google Calendar, Spotify, and Google Keep. Any widget you already use, one gesture away.

💚 Generous free tier

No forced subscription. Free: themes, wallpapers, breathing guides, Mindful Pause and Timer on your most distracting apps, soft Focus sessions, and My Space widgets. Pro (yearly or lifetime): unlimited Pause and Timer apps, Strict Focus, advanced themes, custom fonts.

🔒 Private by Default

• No ads, ever. No third-party tracking. No sign-in required.
• Your usage stats stay on your device. Digital wellbeing without the data trail.

🏢 Work Profile Ready

Supports Android's Work Profile and dual apps. Personal and work cleanly separated.

🌙 A gentler digital detox

An app blocker alternative that never locks you out: soft pauses, honest awareness, and boundaries you choose. A dumb phone alternative on Android that keeps the tools you love. Stop scrolling at 11 pm, reduce screen time, and settle into a phone detox at your own pace.

👥 Built for how you actually use your phone

• Students: Focus Mode for study sessions, Mindful Timer for the apps that eat homework time.

Accessibility Service
Yin Yang uses Android's Accessibility Service for two optional features, and nothing else. Double-tap to lock: detects your double-tap gesture on the home screen and turns the display off. Mindful Timer: notices the moment a monitored app comes to the foreground so your session timer starts right away. Both are off by default, and Yin Yang works fully without enabling Accessibility. We never read screen content, notifications, messages, or any other personal data, and nothing is collected or shared. You can turn it off anytime in Android Settings.

Ratings and reviews

I like it in general, but I'm not paying $30.00 for a launcher, and definitely not a subscription. It's not a subscription app. I'm also very angry that the developers think I should pay them to use my own wallpapers on my own device, that's absurd! Already looking for a replacement. They should've asked for a one time payment of $10.00 instead.

Decent. I like how minimal and simplistic it is, while still being useful. Very nice design. Very easy to use. My biggest issue is that the weather widget doesn't allow you to choose the location, and it is set to Celsius automatically and can not be changed ....and that kind of sucks. But other than that, it's nice.

It is a really good app BUT, I had a glitch where the cool down timer was 1150 minutes long so I tried to see if I put the settings like that and it said that it's 15 minutes long so I put it to 15 minutes long AGAIN and IT DIDN'T WORK. EDIT: I found out how to fix it by just disabling the mindful timer and turning it back on
