Hey everyone!

I've always loved the original PlayStation Vita Start Screen — especially that super satisfying feeling of peeling back the top-right corner to unlock the device. Since there wasn't a modern, faithful version for recent Android devices, I decided to build one from scratch in Kotlin!

What makes it authentic:

• Interactive Sheet Peel Physics: Drag the corner to peel back the screen just like on the Vita. It renders realistic curl curvature, back-of-page gradient shading, and a dynamic drop shadow over the revealed wallpaper.

• Dynamic PS Vita Info Bar (Hardware Real-Time):

• Battery: Real-time percentage inside the green capsule, plus a crisp lightning bolt indicator when the phone is charging.
• Wi-Fi & Bluetooth: Authentic Sony icons that appear dynamically based on your phone's actual connection state.
• Typography: Classic PS Vita clock and date formatting.

• Customizable Card Size ("Quadrado"): Adjust the floating sheet size with presets (Compact 75%, Balanced 85%, Large 92%, or Full Screen 100%) surrounded by the subtle metallic cutout groove line.

• Dual Wallpapers: Set different images for the front sheet and the revealed background underneath (includes built-in Vita Wave themes: Onyx Black, Crystal Blue, Cosmic Red, Emerald Green, plus custom gallery images).

• Edge-to-Edge Landscape Lock Screen: Hides the Android navigation bar and status bar for a true console experience.

Feedback and suggestions are welcome!

I don't have normal shelving in my room so my Vita game collection is just in two large stacks.

Does anyone know of any good DVD style stands like we used to also use for PS2 games back in the day that work for Vita games. Every time I search all I get is cases for the cartridges and not my CiB collection. I have 52 Vita games and plan on getting some more so I need a decent amount of space and some extra.

Hopefully I explained that well. If not here's a screen a link to what I'm talking about.

I know that I can technically buy that from Walmart but $40 is a bit much for what it is and I also don't really care too much for the look.

Any examples and links would be appreciated.
