Minus: minimal launcher

Make your phone feel quieter.

Minus replaces the standard Android home screen with a clear clock and date, a short list of favorites, and a searchable app drawer. There are no feeds, recommendations, badges, or attention grabbing icons on Home.

Choose how you use it:
• Keep everyday apps and folders on a simple Home screen
• Search every launchable app instantly
• Open the app drawer with a button or a left swipe
• Optionally open the keyboard as soon as you swipe
• Hide apps without uninstalling them
• Rename apps only inside the launcher
• Choose from four built-in themes or create your own
• Switch Minus between English, Spanish, and your system language

Optional wellbeing tools add local opening counts, foreground-time summaries, focus schedules, temporary blocks, and daily limits. Android Usage Access and Accessibility are requested only when you choose a feature that needs them. The core launcher works without either permission.

Private by default:
• No account
• No Internet permission
• Installed-app information, preferences, rules, and optional usage summaries stay on your device

Minus is an independent Android launcher. You can switch back to another Home app at any time from its Settings screen.
