Android Liquid Glass (Just Some Eye Candy From My Google Photos)

Before you try and claim I should just get an iphone... bro look at my profile gng. I'm an emulation enthusiast as much as I love ios. If I switch a lot of my emulation and automation and linux focused hobby's dissapears.

Infact non of these liquid glass tweaks and layouts are even possible on iOS so it would overall just be a massive downgrade to my creativity.

Invaders will take over your phone when you exceed your screen-time goal

I’ve been experimenting with a different kind of screen-time app for Android.

Instead of blocking apps or showing another warning popup, Stop Swarm gradually adds small pixel-art invaders on top of your screen as you use your phone.

You set a daily screen-time goal. As you get closer to the limit, more creatures appear. Some walk across the screen, some stop in the middle, and some hold tiny STOP signs.

The overlay does not intercept touches, so the phone remains usable. The idea is to make excessive scrolling progressively harder to ignore without completely locking the user out.

The current prototype is Android only, fully offline, requires no account, contains no ads or analytics, is based on a daily screen-time goal, and is designed to stay lightweight and unobtrusive.

Can yall rate my homescreen please. Yes the iOS style stock icons are completely purposeful. Im a huge fan of those bright saturated colors on the glass. Sorry to everyone who likes absolute washed out uniformity.

Tell me what you all think of my homescreen (with links to everything)

launcher-Smart Launcher 6 (paid)

Icons- icon pack studio (pro/paid) + Arcticons (found on GitHub)

Widgets- Minimal Widgets (premium/paid)

I see the sub rules say do not share paid wallpapers, apks, or widgets.

I'm assuming it's ok to post about using paid things but not to post pirated items, the apps I linked are to the play store, the Arcticons are free on GitHub, and the wallpaper was free I just got it off Google.

Cover and inner display on Samsung galaxy fold 8 ultra

Hi all,

I wanted to share my homescreen set-up. I’m using the Samsung Galaxy Fold 8 Ultra.

I know this is the reverse of what most people do, but I actually like it better this way:

Wallpaper

- Amoled 120hz by Maxelus (live wallpaper)

- I’ve purchased basically all of their live wallpapers. They’re all super high quality, don’t consume too much battery, and I switch between them regularly.

Icon pack

- LineX, missing icons themed with theme park

Cover display: productivity hub

- Widgets

* Now Bar for daily briefs

* Battery widget to monitor devices

* To Do note to get things done

* Outlook calendar to quickly check meetings

- Folders

* Work, containing all my work apps

* Store, containing all payment and customer card apps

* Home, containing all smart home apps for quick access

* Music, containing all music apps for quick access on the go

- Favorite apps

* All communication apps I use for easy access

* Maps for quick navigation

This is basically all I need when I’m outside and quickly want to check something or get things done fast. That’s around 10–20% of my use.

Inner display

- Favorite apps structured in folders: Videos, Browsers, Tech, Apps, Games, AI, Communication, Stores, … everything easily accessible from the taskbar for quick access, pop-up view, and multi-window.

The inner display is the one I use the most, around 80–90% of the time. I’m almost always multi-windowing with 2–3 apps, plus a couple of communication apps floating around, both for work productivity and leisure. I don’t really need anything on the homescreen itself, because everything I need is inside the apps. This way I have everything at my fingertips while still fully enjoying the beautiful live wallpaper :)

[App] Slate Launcher is coming — join the community early 👋

I’ve been working on Slate Launcher, a new minimal Android launcher focused on keeping your phone clean, personal, and less distracting.

Slate is built around things like Spaces, Focus profiles, Slate Hub, widgets, customization, Slate Brief, and smart app suggestions — while keeping the overall experience simple.

I’ve already started building the community before the public launch.

If you’d like to:

follow development and upcoming releases

suggest features

share your setups

report bugs and give feedback

get exclusive launch discounts / offers

talk directly about where Slate should go next

you’re welcome to join.

Discord:

https://discord.gg/kgNPcVSkd3

Reddit community:

https://www.reddit.com/r/slatelauncher

I’m building Slate as an independent project, so early feedback from Android users genuinely helps shape what gets built.

Would love to hear what you want from a modern Android launcher. 🚀
