Desktop Mode: Launcher & Tools

Switch and launch any app in a second.

Desktop Mode: Launcher & Tools gives your Android desktop a fast app switcher and command palette. Press one shortcut (Alt + Space by default, or set your own), start typing, and instantly jump to or open any app — without digging through a cluttered app grid. It's the quickest way to move between apps while you work on a monitor, tablet or in desktop mode.

Made for big screens: external monitors, desktop mode, tablets and Android desktop setups.
Works great with Samsung DeX.

WHY YOU'LL LIKE IT
- Fast, native and lightweight
- No account, no sign-in, no ads

PRIVACY
Your clipboard, files and app data stay on your device and are never uploaded. We collect only
anonymous crash and usage diagnostics to improve the app — never your clipboard, files or
screen content, and we never sell your data.

PERMISSIONS
- Display over other apps — shows the switcher, clipboard and dock over your apps
- Accessibility (optional) — this app uses the Accessibility Service API only to detect the
keyboard shortcut and manage window positioning for multitasking. It reads only window info
(position, focus, app name), never your screen content, and no personal data is collected.
- Usage access (optional) — ranks the apps you use most
- Foreground service — keeps the shortcut and overlays instant
