MINIMAA Promo Drop 🎁 Minimal Launcher
Hey guys,
It’s been a while since the last promo drop 😭
So here we go again — dropping 10 promo codes for Minimaa.
Same old system: First comment = first serve.
I’ll DM/reply with the codes until all 10 are gone.
Didn’t expect this much delay between updates and promos, but a lot of work and optimization has been going on behind the scenes 🛠️
Thanks to everyone still using, testing, reporting bugs, and staying around with the project ❤️
3rd Party Widgets Support - Reviews & Answers #03
First of all, thank you for noticing the privacy-focused features ❤️
A lot of effort went into making Minimaa feel clean while still giving users control over their space.
About cloned apps:
Go to Minimaa Settings → App Drawer → scroll down to “Secondary Profile”.
From there, you can select the cloned apps you want to appear in the app drawer and save it 👀
About widgets:
Minimaa currently doesn’t support third-party widgets, mainly because the launcher is built using Flutter.
Most Android widgets are part of Android’s native widget system. Their layouts are usually built using XML, while their logic and behavior are handled using Kotlin or Java. Properly hosting those native widgets inside a Flutter-based launcher is much more complex than in fully native launchers.
It requires bridging Android’s native widget system into Flutter while still keeping animations, gestures, scrolling, and rendering smooth.
It’s not impossible — but doing it in an optimized and stable way without hurting performance, battery life, or the minimal experience is genuinely difficult.
I’m still researching possible workarounds and hybrid approaches. If I find a solution that feels optimized enough for Minimaa, I’ll definitely explore adding widget support in the future ❤️
But for now, third-party widgets are not supported, so please don’t expect them anytime soon 😶
Hope you guys understand ❤️
Bug/Glitch
I am watching YouTube but the music widget shows previously listened songs image in it. Please fix this
THE "idk what to name this setup" SETUP
Hi, just wanna share my setup for Minimaa.
I made this wallpaper in around 8 hours, including brainstorming and searching for ideas. I think I’m finally satisfied with it. I use emojis as an icon pack because it gives a more sci-fi/minimal vibe somehow.
Not much else to say
(I didn’t use AI to make the wallpaper itself.)
I wanted the whole setup to feel like a futuristic system UI — clean, dark, and minimal, but still detailed enough to look alive. The white frame around the wallpaper kinda feels like a device interface from a sci-fi anime or a spaceship control panel, and I really like how the empty space keeps everything calm instead of cluttered.
No icon pack? No problem. I actually like how simple this launcher is.
I saw some reviews on Google saying this launcher doesn’t have much customization, but honestly, isn’t Minimaa made for people who want to reduce their phone usage? So why would it need tons of customization when the whole point is simplicity?
Next time I’ll probably work on the lock screen too, so the whole setup feels more connected.
Work Profile Apps
Any chance we could get the option to search and/or add work profile apps to the home screen?
We use Intune MDM at our company and I need to be able to pull up managed apps, but they don't appear when searching.
Custom widgets
- Can you plz give option to add custom widgets. If not on Home Screen then on left panel.
- ability to remove all widgets from home screen even clock too.
- app position (vertically) adjustment .
Screen lock Suggestion
Can you add the feature double tap to lock the screen without accessibility permission ??
Minimaa is very mid? Really? Reviews & Answers #02
A lot of people think Minimaa is too simple at first glance — and honestly, that’s intentional.
I never wanted Minimaa to be a launcher with hundreds of switches, cluttered menus, or features fighting for your attention. The goal was always minimalism first.
But that doesn’t mean Minimaa lacks power-user features 👀
Most of them are designed to stay out of your way until you actually need them.
For example, the search bar and Appdrawer already supports:
• Auto opening keyboard
• Auto app launching
• Calculator inside app drawer search
• Contact search
• Web search
There’s also: • Shortcuts
• Folders
• Private Space for hidden apps
• Hide inactive apps
• App list alignment customization
• Alphabet scroller
• Home screen scroller access
• And many more smaller quality-of-life features
The idea is simple: Keep the experience clean for casual users while still giving advanced users deeper controls without breaking the minimal feel.
That said, this review also made me realize something important — maybe Minimaa hides its features too well 😁
So future updates will probably focus more on discoverability and making existing features easier to notice.
Greate launcher but lacking some features
This is one of the best launchers that I've ever used (Ive been using Nova Launcher as my main launcher for the bast 2 years) This has been one of the only launchers that had gavin me an urge to completely move to it but Minimaa doesn't have some features that are nessesary for needs. I would move completely to Minimaa in an instant if it had these 5 features 1. Being able to change search engine to Duckduckgo. 2. Being able to use custom icon packs (fits my theme better than the default ones) and being able to add more apps to the homescreen (9 would fit better than 6 in my setup) 4. Clicking the calendar opens default calendar app not minimaa calendar (small inconsistensy but bothersome) 5. Weather widget (better than having the app take a slot on the home screen, especially with the idea of having limited home screen apps) Overall this is a great launcher and if these features are added in the future I will use it as my main.
Crayon Zooo
Something Special is Coming soon.

Full-screen with navigation button active
An option to hide the 3 navigation buttons would be awesome .Just like the older launchers used to have
Follow up post- not able to apply custom font
Device - OnePlus Nord 5 Here's the video
Not able to add custom fonts
Downloaded both ttf and off font from google but launcher not picking it up. When selecting use custom font, it goes to internal storage and when i click on respective font, it just doesn't load, the tray remains empty.
Suggestion:music mode
So I have a suggestion for this launcher, because I have a old device, and I want to use it as purely for music, so it would be nice if this launcher has a mold that's called music just a really big music widget a small row of time and pin two or three or four apps on the home screen

MINIMAA saved my old phone
Works well on Sony xz2c
W for dev
Feature idea!
As in nothing os we can minimize any app and do multitasking, but in minimaa it is not possible only youtube can be minimised, can the launcher support every app minimisation which would be better when multitasking .
