µLauncher

A distraction-free, minimal homescreen for Android.
New in version 0.2.8
* Fixed some bugs:
* Torch now working on devices with only one strength level
* Improved gesture detection
* Improved translations (thank you, r, Vladi69 and class0068!)
µLauncher is a home screen that lets you start other apps using swipe gestures and button presses.
It is minimal, efficient and free of distraction.

Your home screen only displays the date, time and a wallpaper.
Pressing back or swiping up (this can be configured) opens a list
of all installed apps, which can be searched efficiently.


This is a fork of the app Launcher
by Finn M Glas.

Features:
* You can bind actions to 35 different gestures.
* An action can be one of the following:
- Launch an app
- List all apps
- List favorite apps
- Volume up / down
- Music: previous / next track
- Lock screen
- Toggle torch
- Show notifications / quick settings
* Compatible with work profile and private space.
