About this app

Lynx Launcher is a customizable replacement for your home screen 📲 that provides a focused, clean and unobtrusive user interface.
Inspired by the Gnome Desktop Environment™ for Linux, Lynx Launcher offers all functionalities of a modern home screen without being too complex or distracting.

Features:


🔶 No distractions or superfluous functions
All available functions are carefully chosen to not clutter the launcher with unnecessary distractions and provide a clean look. You can also hide Applications you cannot uninstall but don't want to see.
🛠️ Customization options
Change the position of the dock, text size, desktop grids, search bar visibility, notification dots(*) and more.
👆 Fast navigation and gestures
Applications, favorites, search and desktop are all reachable with just a single swipe. Want to open a shortcut, setting, app or see a contact using a gesture? No problem!
💚 See your favorite applications and contacts at one place
The favorites screen will show you all your favorite applications and contacts for easy and fast access.
🔍 Extended search functionality
The in-app search function allows you to search for apps, contacts, shortcuts, settings and can be used as a calculator or to start an online search using a search engine of your choice.
🎨 Theming for launcher and icons
You can use your favorite icon theme from Google Play, change the shape of the adaptive icons(*) or even change the whole theme of the Launcher.
🌙 Dark mode support
Choose whether Lynx Launcher should use a dark or a light theme or when the dark theme should be used. You can also change the dark mode individually for parts of the app.

Hands down! Best launcher, I went through many. Nova, MS, AIO, etc ... But only this one is exactly what I needed. It's fast, has the most desired option for me 'frequent/favorite' apps which is a must to keep your screens organized and clean! Why didn't I find this app years ago! And ... It doesn't require yearly or monthly payments. I just paid once but even without that it is fully useful. Again ... hands down!

Looks ok. there's no multiple homepages though? Dock is only on one screen? Doesn't make sense. Padding is weird trying to replicate pixel layout. I understand this doesn't want to just be the pixel launcher clone but i can't even replicate the pixel launcher as a baseline. So it's "custom" but missing the mark on "customizable". Looking for a launcher because I want to replace the Google search bar.

I like the look and feel of this launcher. I'd just like to have access to an "HTC Blinkfeed" style page adjacent to the home screen that provides endless news updates to read from various news sources and possibly even social media as well. I'd also like the possibility to access hidden apps easier. I like OnePlus's style of accessing hidden apps by typing # [4 digit pin] # in the phone app. One last request would be for the background in the apps drawer to have a dim background.
