GCA Launcher Beta

User Notice (Updated 1/14): Version 2.1 development is still heavily in progress. Telegram group members will be invited to the insider builds towards the end of the month. There are many changes on the way that include a reworked pledge/add-on system, new icon customization, new features and a new homescreen experience. Translation support is planned for this year and will roll out slowly as its supported.

GCA Launcher is a new approach to the launcher homescreen scene. Designed to support the next generation, full screen gestures, super lite weight interface, a handful of customization for users, battery friendly, hardware resource friendly and is pretty easy to use. This launcher was built completely from ground zero as a freelance project and DOES NOT support tradition stock launcher features you may be use to (Drag n Drop, Discover Feed support or QuickSwitch).

This launcher does support Android Go (may not meet size requirements), Supports devices running Android 5.0+, Supports tablets and Supports "some" devices with full screen gesture support. Launcher is not optimized for dual screen setups. (Requires December 2019 security update and latest build of Android10 release, both are required)

GCA Launcher requires access to your External Memory for several reasons. To access digital color data from your wallpaper. To save user data on your device for the launcher to easily read and store cache for later use.

GCA Launcher requires admin privileges to use the double tap to lock feature. By giving GCA permission to be an admin app, this does block out the ability to use your physical fingerprint reader when trying to unlock your phone. A pin will be required to unlock your device. This rule does not apply to In-Screen fingerprint readers as its disregarded and you may continue operations as normal. A fix will be looked into but it may require root access or accessibility options, terms of service will be updated when this changes.

GCA Launcher requires access to Usage Data for Predictive Apps. This allows the launcher to create an accurate list of Predictive Apps for the user that's almost 100% accurate and updates when data changes.
