Lusco makes it quiet.

Lusco is the cure to digital distraction — a minimalist home screen system that replaces app icon clutter, badge counts, and infinite scroll with calm, beautifully designed widgets. You decide what stays. Everything else fades away.

WHY LUSCO

Most of us don't have a phone problem. We have a home screen problem. Every glance at a chaotic grid of icons is an invitation to open the apps that drain our focus, our time, and our peace. Lusco strips it down to the essentials — just the apps you actually need, in a layout that feels like a deep breath.

WHAT YOU GET
Minimalist home screen widgets — text-first, icon-light, designed to disappear into your wallpaper
Up to 5 customizable pages — each holds your most-used apps so you can launch them in one tap
Date, time, and weather widgets — gentle, glanceable, never demanding
A real "dumb phone" feel — no badges, no notifications screaming for attention, no infinite grid
Optional app blocking and focus intervention tools to help reduce distractions
DESIGN THAT DISAPPEARS

Lusco isn't another launcher trying to add features. It's a launcher trying to subtract them.

Choose any background color and text color
Pick from beautiful typography options
Adjust font size, alignment, line spacing, and text case
Hide widget names for the cleanest possible look
Tint icons or remove them entirely — your call
FOCUS TOOLS

Lusco can help you create a calmer phone experience by letting you choose which apps should be easier to avoid. When you open an app that you personally selected for focus protection, Lusco may show a pause screen, breathing exercise, or reflection prompt before you continue.

This feature is designed to support intentional phone use, not to restrict your device permanently. You stay in control and can change or disable these settings anytime.

ACCESSIBILITY SERVICE API DISCLOSURE

Lusco uses the Android AccessibilityService API only for its optional app blocking and focus intervention feature.

With your permission, Lusco uses AccessibilityService to detect when you open an app that you have personally selected for focus protection. When one of these selected apps is opened, Lusco can display a focus screen, breathing exercise, or pause prompt to help you avoid distractions and make a more intentional choice.

Lusco does not use AccessibilityService to read your private messages, collect passwords, record audio, capture screen content, access banking information, change device settings without your permission, bypass Android privacy controls, or prevent you from disabling or uninstalling the app.

The Accessibility permission is optional, used only for the core focus and app blocking functionality selected by the user, and can be turned off anytime from Android Settings.

ONBOARDING THAT MEANS SOMETHING

Lusco starts with a few honest questions about your phone habits. Not to judge — to personalize. You'll see your life in weeks, choose what you want back — focus, time, peace of mind — and set up your minimalist home screen in under three minutes.

PRIVACY FIRST

Lusco doesn't track you. Your apps, your style, your data — all stored locally on your device. We are not in the attention business. We are in the opposite business.

WHO IT'S FOR
People tired of doomscrolling
People who tried digital detox apps and bounced off them
People who want a "dumb phone" without buying one
Designers, writers, creatives who want a home screen that respects their attention
Anyone whose phone has started feeling like a job
GET YOUR FOCUS BACK
