A home screen for Android, inspired by Windows Phone.

Grid puts your apps, contacts, and live information on a simple grid of tiles. Tap to open. Long-press to edit. Drop one tile on another to make a folder.

home screen
‣ Four tile sizes — 1x1, 2x2, 4x2, 4x4 — on an endless vertical grid.
‣ Drag-and-drop edit mode with smart grid snapping.
‣ Android widgets sit alongside tiles, on the same grid.
‣ Folders by dropping one tile onto another.

at a glance
Some tiles update in place, so you can see what's happening without opening the app. The time. Upcoming calendar events. Recent messages and the contacts behind them. What's playing right now. Notification counts animate quietly on the icon.

‣ Any image from your gallery can be a tile icon.
‣ Wallpaper shown in full, blended behind tiles, or blurred.

‣ Search every installed app from the drawer.
‣ Alphabetical A–Z sections and a recently installed row.
‣ Work profile apps alongside personal apps, each with their own badge.

A home screen that stays out of your way. Optional premium features — denser 6 and 8 column grid layouts and folder creation — help support continued development.
