Nocebo Launcher - Spinning Android Launcher - Free

https://reddit.com/link/1vhz8gm/video/5za3krv15yhh1/player

App Name: Nocebo Launcher

I originally started building Nocebo Launcher about 8 years ago because I wanted a launcher that worked differently from the usual grid of icons.

It started as a personal project, something I built only for myself. Over the years, people who saw it asked if they could use it too, so this year I finally decided to release it on Google Play.

Key Features: The main idea is a rotating ring interface

• Apps are arranged around a wheel that rotates like a physical spinner
• The wheel has customizable animations, speed, friction, and behavior
• The design focuses on comfortable one-handed use, especially on taller phones
• The center acts as a sticker hub that can be personalized
• Supports icon packs, widgets, folders, gestures, and launcher backups

The goal was not to create another minimal launcher, but something that feels more playful and interactive while still being practical.

I would really appreciate feedback from Android users and developers:

  • Does the wheel interaction feel natural?
  • Are there parts of the UI that are confusing?
  • What would make you use (or not use) a launcher like this?

Goal: Testing / Feedback

[App] [Promotion] Nocebo Launcher — A free Android launcher with a rotating home screen

Hey everyone!

I recently released Nocebo Launcher, a free Android launcher built around a rotating home screen instead of the usual static grid.

I originally designed it for myself around eight years ago because I wanted something comfortable to use one-handed on tall phones. You can flick the spinner between apps, customize its animations and haptic feedback, place your own sticker in the center, and adjust almost every part of the layout.

Some of the main features:

Up to 20 apps on the rotating layout

  • Custom center stickers, including GIF support
  • A draggable four-direction gesture control
  • Traditional home-screen pages for widgets and shortcuts
  • App-drawer folders and drag-and-drop organization
  • Search, widgets, deep shortcuts, and Private Space support
  • Icon packs and individual custom icons
  • Dynamic wallpaper blur, including animated wallpapers on supported devices

Earlier this year, I rebased the project on Lawnchair and prepared it for public release. It is completely free and collects no user data.

I’d really appreciate honest feedback, especially about what you like, what you dislike, whether anything feels confusing, and whether you run into any problems on your device.
