Meridian Launcher — a privacy-first Android home screen

Privacy is the headline feature. Meridian has no analytics, no trackers, and no data collection of any kind. The only network use is optional weather and optional search suggestions — both off until you turn them on, and clearly labeled when you do.

Everything you'd expect. A few things you wouldn't.

Your grid, your rules

Up to 16×16 with half-cell icon positioning, widget stacking, 15 page-scroll effects, and per-display grids on foldables.

A drawer that works

Vertical, paged, or list styles. Custom tabs with icons, drag-to-file apps into tabs, T9 dialer search, hidden apps, Material You theming.

Gestures for everything

Fifteen triggers — swipes, pinches, rotates, double-taps — each assignable to any app, shortcut, or system action.

Icon packs and theming

Community icon-pack support, themed and dynamic icons, live clock hands, seven mask shapes, per-icon overrides.

A launcher that recovers

Crash-loop safe mode, automatic local backups (to a folder you choose), and one-tap import from your previous launcher.

A setup wizard with a dial

Quick, Detailed, or "Insane — I want to control everything!!!" Three tiers, live preview, fully revertible.
