Full description
Modesmith is a clean, minimalist Android launcher that adapts your home screen to your context. Keep Home calm with a clock, date, current mode, Now apps, Always apps, search, widgets, wallpapers, Smart Pills, and a fast A–Z drawer. A launcher that changes with your day Create Home, Work, Focus, Travel, Guest, or other modes, each with its own apps and appearance. Switch modes manually or schedule them by time, day, priority, and overnight periods. Use Smart Triggers for charging, headphones, paired Bluetooth devices, calendar events, or foreground location areas. Keep essential Always apps across every mode. Return automatically to schedules and fallback modes. Fast search and app access Search apps, Android app shortcuts, settings, and launcher actions. Open recents, use locally learned ordering, or jump through the A–Z rail. Use personal and available work-profile apps. Optionally search contacts locally. Run actions for modes, timers, flashlight, sound, rotation, Do Not Disturb, notifications, and settings. Widgets and personalization Add widgets to Home or the Widget Board. Smart Pills can show alarms, calendar events, connected devices, media controls, battery, timers, web search, and custom actions. Customize colors, fonts, icons, icon packs, wallpapers, gestures, badges, app ordering, layouts, and widgets. Follow the system language or choose English, French, German, Indonesian, Italian, Portuguese, or Spanish for Modesmith alone. Privacy and optional access Modesmith has no ads, analytics SDKs, third-party crash reporting, user accounts, cloud sync, or developer-operated launcher-data server. Launcher settings and learning stay local. JSON backups are created only when you choose a save location. Optional access is used only for features you enable: Contacts: local Contact Search. Calendar: upcoming events and Calendar Event Smart Triggers. Nearby Devices: connected-device displays and paired Bluetooth triggers; no scanning. Foreground location: Location Smart Triggers and current-location capture. Location is used only while Modesmith is open and visible. There is no background-location permission or location upload, and sampled positions and visit history are not stored. Saved trigger coordinates stay local unless you explicitly export a JSON backup. Notification access: badges, local media controls, and optional dismissal of Guest-hidden app notifications. Camera: flashlight only; no photos or video. Notifications: local timer alerts. Do Not Disturb and system settings: only for DND and auto-rotation actions you configure. Guest Mode can hide apps, protect settings with Android’s device credential screen, and optionally dismiss notifications from hidden apps. Accessibility Service API disclosure Modesmith includes an optional Accessibility Service used only for actions chosen by the user, such as locking the screen or opening Android’s notification or Quick Settings panels from a Home gesture, dock action, or search action. Modesmith is a launcher, not an accessibility tool. It does not use Accessibility access to read screen content, collect text, monitor other apps, track user actions, capture passwords, record audio, perform remote actions, or collect or share personal data. The service cannot retrieve window content, is not required for normal launcher use, and can be disabled at any time in Android Accessibility settings. Before opening Accessibility settings, Modesmith shows an in-app disclosure explaining why access is requested. Basic and Pro The core Basic launcher remains usable. Optional Pro access unlocks higher limits and advanced modes, schedules, Smart Triggers, privacy controls, widgets, icons, Smart Pills, search, and backup tools. Purchases and restoration use Google Play Billing. Modesmith is for people who want a calmer home screen without losing speed or flexibility.
