Flexera is a home screen for Android that stays calm, with an app list you fly through using one thumb. No ads. No account. Nothing about you leaves your phone.
Pages, folders and widgets, in the Android layout you already know. No feed, no ads, nothing you didn't put there yourself.
Gesture None. Just look.
02 / 08
Swipe up. A to Z.
Every app in one clean column, straight over your wallpaper. New messages show up under the app's name, so you see them before you open anything.
Gesture Swipe up
03 / 08
Ride the wave.
Slide your thumb along the letters on the edge. They swell around it like a wave, and the list drops that letter into the middle of the screen, right where your thumb already is. Swipe up and keep holding to scrub straight from home.
Gesture Slide on the edge
04 / 08
Folders in focus.
Open a folder and the rest of the screen melts into a soft blur, wallpaper included. Just the apps you came for.
Gesture Tap
05 / 08
Swipe into nothing.
There's no page left of your first one. Swipe there anyway and your camera opens. Or any app, or any shortcut you pick. Works past your last page too.
Gesture Swipe past the edge

Widgets that fit in.
A clock that lines up with your icons: the date, a one-line forecast, left, center or right, thin to bold. Next to it, a picture frame in your icon shape that turns to the next photo every ten seconds.
Gesture Hold, then edit
07 / 08
Out of sight.
Hold any app in the list and tap Hide app. Gone from the list and from search. Changed your mind? Undo, or bring it back from Settings whenever you like.
Gesture Hold, then hide

Every layer. Pulled apart.
Under the glass sit five layers: your wallpaper, the widgets, icons and folders, the app list with its wave alphabet, and the glass on top. No feed and no ads hiding in between.

It goes online for exactly two things.
1
Updates
About once a day it asks its own release page whether there's a newer version. Installing it is your call.
2
Weather, if you ask
Pick a town for the clock's weather line and it asks Open-Meteo about that place. Only that place. It never uses your location.
Nothing else about you, your apps or your phone leaves it.
This page plays by the same rules: no cookies, no analytics, no fonts or scripts from anyone else.

Two rounds, the same 40 apps. In round 2, drag along the letters on the edge.
It's a small independent project, shipped straight from its own release page. The app checks that page for new versions, so you won't miss updates.
Android warns me before installing. Is that normal?
Yes. Android double-checks every app installed from outside the Play Store. Play Protect may also mention that the app can ask for notification access (for notification dots and previews) and accessibility (only for gestures such as double-tap to lock). Both stay off until you turn them on yourself.
Will it work on my phone?
It runs on Android 8.0 and newer. The blur behind folders needs Android 12 or newer; on older versions folders open over a plain dimmed background.
Can I go back to my old launcher?
Any time. Settings → Apps → Default apps → Home app, and pick the old one. Nothing is deleted.
