What Simple Launcher is and who it suits
Simple Launcher is a replacement for the home screen on an Android phone. The launcher controls what you see after unlocking the device, from the app icons and widgets to the colors around them. The developer describes its interface as Material Design.
It is aimed at people who want to change how their home screen looks and works rather than keep the default layout. Anyone who mainly wants a customizable front screen with their own choice of apps and widgets is the listing's intended user.
Arranging the home screen and opening apps
You can arrange the home screen to your own layout. Your most-used apps can be placed where you can reach them quickly, which is the core of the launcher's purpose according to the listing.
The launcher also lets you uninstall apps you no longer use, so the app list can be trimmed without going to the system settings. The listing gives decluttering the device as the reason for this.
Adding and sizing widgets on the home screen
Widgets can be added to the home screen and resized to fit the space you have. The developer says the widget support is full, so the widgets you install elsewhere on the phone can be placed here.
Each widget can be personalized after it is placed. This lets you show things like a clock, calendar or app shortcut in the size and spot you choose.
Colors, color themes and dark theme
The launcher offers color customization in several styles, so the home screen's colors can be matched to your taste. A set of color themes is included for changing the look in one step.
A dark theme is available for the home screen, which is useful for people who prefer darker screens. The listing describes it as a comfortable viewing option for everyday use.
