Minimalistic, Distraction-Free Android Launcher
Modern smartphones are designed to maximize screen time through constant visual stimulation, notification badges, and frictionless app drawers that encourage compulsive checking.
Live is designed to break this cycle through intentional friction:
- A quiet home screen: Your home screen only shows what you need to stay grounded: the time, date, local weather, your year's progress, and direct access to essential communication.
- Optional Passcode Gate: Set an app lock in Settings and you'll need to enter it every time you open the full app list or change launcher settings. This deliberate pause eliminates mindless scrolling and helps you regain control over your attention.
- Three-Screen Minimalist Flow:
- Focus Home: Clean typography with an oversized clock, date, live temperature, and 4 black shortcuts (Phone, Messages, Email, ₹ UPI Pay by default, each replaceable with any app).
- Calendar and Holidays: Full interactive month grid, year picker, offline holiday tracker, and selected date detail view.
- Pinned Essentials: Choose which apps appear here in Settings (with select / unselect all) and keep distractions hidden.
- Contacts Speed Dial: Up to 3 contacts picked from your contacts app, each with a short name ("Call Mom ?"). One tap calls instantly. Reorder them in Settings.
- Zero-Noise Weather: Lightweight real-time weather and temperature updates powered by Open-Meteo with background caching.
- Searchable App Drawer: Fast, clutter-free search across all installed applications, accessible only when unlocked.
- Download the latest APK from the Releases page.
- Install the APK and set Live as your default home launcher.
- Start using it right away. Open Settings to hide apps, set shortcuts and contacts, or add an optional passcode.
