A life changer It dawned on me recently that my phone's main screen looked like a gaming platform with weird distracting colourful icons. I'm not a youngster, I want a phone that's practical, under my rule, I love that I can rename apps via their function, change Waze to Navigate for example... I add categories after some app names, e.g. games, so by they all appear in a search. The search option to open apps is great. I will gladly donate, but this is free and no ads. Functions perfectly.

Perfectly minimal. I've been looking at dumbphones that don't feature anything special, as I'm quickly distracted. The 'Lightphone' seemed ideal, but that's too expensive and unrepairable. In comes Olauncher. It's nearly the same as the Lightphone's interface! I love the customisability of this launcher. You can hide things like undeleteable apps (e.g. Youtube), rename apps, hide the top status bar, and choose which apps to show on the home screen. Exactly what I was looking for. Thank you! <3

Great experience with this app. Would recommend for a screen detox and productivity increase. I am a mobile developer so I spend lots of time on my phone and this app is a great way to increase my productivity. One thing: If the device is slower, the keyboard pops up and you can start searching, before all apps are loaded. When the apps are then loaded, instead of loading the apps according to your search it loads all the apps and you have to type again to get the app you want.
