Slim Launcher

About Slim Launcher Android App

Slim launcher is a home screen app that replaces your home screen with an easy-to-use interface. It is slim because it's flexible and it doesn't consume the battery or memory of your phone or tablet. The main flexible setting of Slim Launcher is number of icons shown on the home screen. It's optimized for phones as well as for tablets. You define how many icons you'd like to have. There's no waste of space - just icons.

This reduces the memory consumption and increases the performance - especially on old or low cost devices.

It shows no widgets because those consume a lot of energy you'll notice a lower battery consumption.
There is just one home screen - it doesn't confuse people who are not familiar with multi-home-screen concept. Most of people don't use this feature anyway.

Icons
In order to use space on the screen optimally, no app names are shown as labels - only icons are visible. That's all. You'll see, you will recognize your apps just by their icons. You can show extremely high number of icons on the home screen - for professional power users. Or just few icons - useful. for people who rarely use their smart phone or tablet. The launcher automatically determines the size of icons - depending of how many of them you have added to the home screen.
