What is VL Launcher?

VL is a minimalist Android launcher with a clean, sober visual style and a strong focus on privacy, clarity, everyday usability, and lightweight performance. It is designed to keep the home screen uncluttered, the app drawer fast and responsive, and the overall experience respectful of the user.

No ads. No subscriptions. No tracking. No profiling. No built-in surveillance.

What VL offers

• Customizable Home and app Drawer layouts • Two styles: Minimal and Classic • Rectangular, circular, or analog clock with battery, date, weather, and shortcuts • Built-in online radio with curated music stations and lock screen playback • Optional dedicated Widget Page for third-party Android widgets • Search, optional app categories, and frequent or recently installed app views • Configurable gesture shortcuts • Light, dark, or system theme • Custom highlight color • Manual wallpaper manager with visual carousel, preview, theme assignment, fit, and alignment controls • Optional automatic daily wallpaper rotation using VL wallpapers or your own collection • Original, black-and-white, and silhouette icon styles • Local generation of icon variants for installed apps, without relying on external icon packs • Export and import of settings

Privacy

• No user accounts • No ads • No subscriptions • No tracking • No profiling • No analytics SDKs • No advertising SDKs • No crash-reporting SDKs • No built-in surveillance

Icon variants are generated locally on your device. VL does not collect, send, or analyze your list of installed apps.

Third-party widgets are optional and kept on their own dedicated Widget Page. They are provided by other applications and follow those applications’ own permissions, privacy policies, and data practices.

VL may be a good fit if you want: • A clean, calm, and uncluttered Home • A fast and responsive launcher • Useful features without unnecessary complexity • Strong privacy principles • Customization without bloat • A paid app that does not try to monetize you again later

VL may not be for you if you want: • A launcher built around widgets as its main interface • External icon packs • Hundreds of advanced customization options • Complex multi-page Home setups • Ads in the middle of your drawer or on your home screen • Predatory subscriptions

VL is built around a simple idea: your launcher should serve you, not exploit you.
