A different home screen for every part of your day

A Space is a whole home screen, not a page of one. It has its own pages, dock, folders, grid and icon style, and switching to it changes every one of those at once.

Meridian's Home screen settings, with a live miniature of the home screen at the top showing an 8 by 4 grid, sliders for grid rows, grid columns and margins below it, and a pill in the top right reading Default. — **Which Space am I editing?** Every settings screen carries it in the top right — here, **Default**. Switch that pill and the same sliders edit that Space's grid instead, leaving Default alone.

Every Space starts as a copy of the one you already like

Settings inside a Space follow your Default space until you change them there. A new Space therefore opens as an exact copy of the home screen you have already tuned, and you only touch what needs to differ — a tighter grid, a different icon shape, a dock with four apps instead of five.

Change something in Default afterwards and every Space that never overrode it follows along. Override it in one Space and that Space keeps its own value from then on.

Home screens that switch without you

This is the part no amount of manual tidying replaces. Give a Space a schedule or a trigger and Android arrives at the right home screen before you do:

A minimal Work space that takes over on weekdays at nine
A Bedtime space at half ten, with the noisy apps gone
A Travel space the moment your car's Bluetooth connects

Schedules and triggers fire with the launcher closed and the screen off, so the switch has already happened by the time you unlock the phone. There is no companion app to install and no automation tool to configure — though if you already use one, Meridian's Spaces can be driven from a shortcut too.

Or switch by hand, three ways

The switcher sheet — every Space side by side, with its name, colour and icon
A gesture — assign "next Space", or one specific Space, to any swipe or drawn shape
The switcher widget — a row of pills on the home screen, which can show icons alone

Each Space gets a name, a colour, and an icon you pick from any icon pack you have installed, so the switcher reads at a glance rather than as a list of words.

What is actually per-Space

Layer	Follows Default until you change it
Pages and what is on them	Each Space has its own
Dock	Own apps, own size, or off entirely
Folders	Own
Grid	Own, up to 16×16 with half-cell placement
Icon style	Own pack, shape and size
Widgets	Own, including stacks
Wallpaper	Shared — Spaces do not carry their own wallpaper

Worth knowing: per-Space wallpapers were removed in version 1.49. Everything else in the table above is genuinely independent.

Building one without doing the work

Ask the assistant. "Set up a Bedtime space" creates the Space, gives it a schedule, picks a restrained set of apps, builds the dock and adds the switcher — then shows you every change it made with Undo beside it. See the assistant for how that works.
