- Full-screen folders: a folder on the home screen or in the dock now opens over the whole screen. Its apps sit at the bottom, in the same columns and spacing as your home screen, within reach of your thumb, with the folder's name below them. Behind it the home screen is darkened and blurred, as behind the app list. Tap anywhere else to close it, or tap the name to rename it.
- A folder that opens because you hold a dragged app over it still opens around its icon, so the app drops in where your finger is.
- To go back to floating folders, switch off Settings > Folders > "Full screen folders".
- Fixed: a folder could open in the top left corner of the screen, mostly off the screen, with its apps out of reach.
App list
- Scrubbing from the home screen's edge works right after the launcher starts. Before, it did nothing until the app list had been opened once.
- With "Remember position" on, holding to scrub no longer undoes the jump.
- Notification previews in the list leave out text that Android itself hides, and stay up to date after changes made while the launcher was in the background.
- In the light theme, search results and the search field are readable on the dark backdrop.
- Apps in Private Space no longer offer Hide app, which could not work for them, and leave no blank stop in the alphabet.
Quick launch
- Fixed: after quick launch had been used, the launcher kept old copies of itself in memory each time it was rebuilt, for example when dark theme switched on.
- An app that was uninstalled or disabled no longer slides its page in; a short message says what is wrong.
- Going home right after a quick launch no longer leaves a black home screen that ignores touches for a moment.
Widgets
- Clock: weather requests no longer carry Android's user agent, which names your phone model; they say only FlexeraLauncher. Celsius or Fahrenheit follows Android's own setting (Android 14 and newer). After a failed request the clock waits longer each time before trying again. The options sheet works at large font sizes and in right-to-left languages.
- Pictures: restoring a backup on the same phone keeps the pictures, and the clock keeps its options. Photos are loaded at the size of the frame, and the slideshow pauses while the widget can't be seen.
- Text the launcher draws itself, such as the alphabet's letters and the clock's date, follows Android's Bold text setting.
- Another app's widget no longer jumps in size at the end of its drop.
Updates
- Reopening About during a download no longer breaks the download. At home on Android 17, a blocked download offers "Allow access". A server error no longer reads as "You have the latest version". These work from the next update on.
Import from Smart Launcher
- Sturdier with damaged or very large backups. The preview says when importing would change the label setting, and items in the top row of the first screen are listed as left out, not lost, when At a Glance is on.
Security
- Other apps can no longer reach the home screen's database.

Flexera Launcher 0.15.0 Stable
2026-11-13 11:38:42 +00:00 | 0 commits to main since this releaseQuick launch
- When a swipe past the first or the last home screen page opens an app, the app now gets a page of its own. The home screen moves aside under your finger and blurs as it goes, and a black page comes in. Let go past about 40% of the screen, or flick, and the app appears on that page. Let go earlier and the home screen comes back.
- The app starts the moment your finger lifts and appears without the usual zoom. An app you used recently comes back on its last screen almost at once; an app that was closed shows its start screen first.
- Swipes set to something other than an app, such as the notification panel, stretch the pages as before.
Widgets
- Every widget now lines up with the icons, as the Pictures widget does. Its edges meet the edges of the icons above, below and beside it, instead of reaching past them and into the space kept for icon names. Widgets stay in the cells they are in. A few widgets draw an empty margin of their own and stay a little inside the line.
- Switch it off under Settings > Home screen > Widgets > "Line up with icons".

Flexera Launcher 0.14.0 Stable
2026-11-12 20:50:55 +00:00 | 0 commits to main since this releaseUpdates
- Settings > About shows the next update step as a large button: Check for updates, then Download and install.
- Download and install goes straight on to the installation when the download is done, so there is no Install to tap afterwards. The first time, Android asks you to allow Flexera Launcher to install apps. Allow it and go back, and the installation carries on by itself.

Flexera Launcher 0.13.0 Stable
2026-11-12 19:33:11 +00:00 | 0 commits to main since this releaseApp list
- Hide app: press and hold an app in the app list and tap "Hide app". It leaves the list and the list's search, and a message with Undo shows for a few seconds. To bring apps back, open Settings > App drawer > Hidden apps and untick them. An icon of the app on the home screen stays where it is.
Fixed
- The first setting changed after the launcher had started made it rebuild its grid and restart its screen. That is gone, so the first change is as quick as the ones after it.

Flexera Launcher 0.12.0 Stable
2026-11-12 17:16:47 +00:00 | 0 commits to main since this releaseFolders
- Blur: the home screen behind an open folder is now blurred, icons and wallpaper alike, so the folder stands out. It fades in and out with the folder. Switch it off under Settings > Folders > "Blur behind open folders". Where the phone has blur switched off, as in Battery Saver, the wallpaper stays sharp and only the icons blur.
- Fixed: with the dock switched off, the tops of four icons showed at the bottom edge of the screen while a folder was open. They were the hidden dock's icons, pulled into view by the slight zoom-out behind the folder.

Flexera Launcher 0.11.0 Stable
2026-11-12 15:46:18 +00:00 | 0 commits to main since this releaseClock widget
- Weather: the clock can show a third line with the temperature and the sky, such as "6° · Overcast". Touch and hold the clock, tap the edit button, and under Weather look up your town or city and pick it. It is off until you pick a place.
- Font weight: choose Thin, Light, Regular or Bold figures in the same place.
- The text now stands in the middle of the widget's frame; it sat too high before.
Privacy
- Weather comes from Open-Meteo.com. The launcher asks it about the place you picked, about once an hour while the clock is in view, and sends nothing else. It does not use your phone's location. The About screen's note on what goes online has been updated.

Flexera Launcher 0.10.0 Stable
2026-11-12 15:11:20 +00:00 | 0 commits to main since this releaseHome screen
- New widget that comes with the launcher: Clock. The time in light figures with the date under it, written straight onto the wallpaper and lined up with your icons. Find it in the widget list under Flexera Launcher.
- Touch and hold the clock and use the edit button to choose where it stands (Left, Center, Right) and how large it is (Small, Medium, Large).
- It follows your phone's 12 or 24 hour setting, and a tap opens the clock app.
About
- The QR code now leads straight to the newest APK, so scanning it starts the download. The address under it is still the page with all versions.

Flexera Launcher 0.9.0 Stable
2026-11-12 13:58:36 +00:00 | 0 commits to main since this releaseHome screen
- New: Quick launch. Swipe on from the first home screen page, as if there were one more page beside it, and the launcher opens an app you chose, the camera for example. The last page has a choice of its own, so one home page gives you two.
- Set it up under Settings, Gestures, Quick launch. Besides an app you can pick any of the launcher's gesture actions, such as the notification panel or app search.
- A short pull, or one you take back, does nothing. A pull of about a seventh of the screen's width or a quick flick does it, with a tick when you have pulled far enough.
- Has no effect while Infinite scrolling is on. Needs Android 12 or later.

Flexera Launcher 0.8.1 Stable
2026-11-12 13:09:48 +00:00 | 0 commits to main since this releaseUpdates
- Fixes "did not answer" when checking for updates on the same network as the update server. Android 17 lets an app reach devices on the local network only with your permission. The check now says so at once; tap the message, allow "Nearby devices", and it runs again.
- The launcher uses that permission for the update check and download only.
To get this version on a phone where the check fails: switch Wi-Fi off for a moment and check again over mobile data, or download the APK from this page in a browser.

Flexera Launcher 0.8.0 Stable
2026-11-12 12:19:10 +00:00 | 0 commits to main since this releaseHome screen
- New widget that comes with the launcher: Pictures. Find it in the widget list under Flexera Launcher, choose one picture or several, and it shows them in a frame that lines up with your icons and has their shape. Several pictures take turns every 10 seconds; a tap shows the next one right away.
- Resize it like any widget. To change its pictures, touch and hold it and use the edit button.
- Pictures are copied into the launcher, so the launcher needs no access to your gallery.
Import from Smart Launcher
- Smart Launcher's photo widget now comes along: it arrives as a Pictures widget in the same place and keeps its photo. Tap it once after the import.
Fixes
- A changed setting could leave the home screen looking as before until the launcher restarted, when the launcher had been opened like an app before it became the home app.
