Show HN: I built a free and open source minimalist launcher for Android

Created a minimalist launcher for personal use. After using it as my daily driver, I slowly start removing all the distracting and unnecessary apps and reduced installed apps on my phone from 125 to 47 currently. A minimal launcher is not for everyone but using it greatly decreased my phone usage and saved a lot of time. The app recently reached 1000 downloads on the play store. So decided to share it here with everyone. Feedback is most welcome.

Thank you

Reminds me of Unlauncher (not that it's a bad thing!). Will this also be available on F-Droid?

Will look into publishing to the F-Droid. If it isn't lot of work, then will do it.
