Hi everyone!

I’m happy to share my app, Octopi Launcher, which I’ve worked on for quite a while now.

Octopi Launcher is a launcher for Android, built with the latest trends in mind, which includes visual and haptic effects, and support for foldables.

Features:

• App drawer, dock and homescreen
• Different homescreen for different screen layout/ orientation/ size/ foldable position
• Widgets and (autoscrolling) widget stacks
• Blur for widget and dock background (experimental)
• Home screen and app drawer folders
• Fine/ free positioning of home screen apps and widgets
• Big home screen icons
• Swipe up/ down actions for icons
• Display drawer items as icons or tiles (or single list); sort by installed date or updated date
• App search + instant launch
• Assign a nickname to an app for instant app search and launch (e.g. searching “ff” launches Firefox instantly)
• Icon pack support
• Wallpaper blur when opening app drawer (on supported devices)
• Work profile support
• Fun animations, reflections and haptic effects
