About G-Launcher

Love Linux Mobile? G-Launcher brings a GNOME-inspired experience to your Android device.
G-Launcher was born out of a passion for free software and privacy, bringing the interface known from GNOME Shell directly to your current phone.

Why G-Launcher?

  • Application cards inspired by GNOME Mobile
  • Linux-like workflow
  • Customizable themes
  • Fast access to active apps
  • Open-source-friendly philosophy

As a long-time Linux user, I believe the future belongs to systems that respect our privacy and are free from ubiquitous trackers. By observing the development of projects like GNOME Mobile and postmarketOS, I decided to create a tool that allows everyone to experience how working with a "Linux-style" phone could look in everyday use.

Main Features

  • GNOME Shell Inspired Design

    Aesthetics and layout modeled after one of the most popular desktop environments in the Linux world.

  • Privacy First

    No unnecessary tracking scripts and full respect for user data.

  • Minimalism & Functionality

    Focus on what matters most, without the visual chaos typical of standard Android skins.

Important Information (Work in Progress)

Please note that G-Launcher is in its intensive development phase (Beta). Due to Android system limitations, not every GNOME Shell feature can be replicated 1:1, but I am constantly working to make the experience as faithful to the original as possible.

Disclaimer: This project is not affiliated with the GNOME Foundation or postmarketOS. It is an expression of deep respect for their work and an attempt to popularize the ideas of open-source software.

Let's build the alternative we deserve, together!

Best regards,
Mikołaj
