Launcher with deep customization on a single screen
About this app
I built this launcher for people to be able to easily access settings and customization all from one screen without having to go on a scavenger hunt to change something simple like row count or font size. I built this app to help me move to a more secure OS and thought oh, other people can use this too!
All your data is stored locally on the device, no exuberant permissions required such as internet connection or any data collection libraries (you can check with apps like TrackerControl or apps that will scan libraries for trackers).
One screen customization with preview windows to view your changes prior to even going into the launcher. Just like most launchers, icons, folders, and everything in the preview areas use bitmaps; while widgets are the only item using Live AndroidView. In the preview section you will see we have multiple ways to customize the launcher with columns & rows being independent of each-other in the Home Screen / App Drawer sections but only being bound by a universal icon size indicator making sure apps and text don't go out of bounds on each-other. In the app drawer you will also see a square check mark box next to the app drawer rows; this selection will switch you between the scroll mode & paged mode drawers and if you scroll further down to the scroll bar/ navigation drop down, you can customize both navigation indicators to you liking. Just above that you will notice an icon text dropdown where you can choose rom various fonts (most popular ones from other Launcher3 forks) & a way to adjust the text size.
Using this app is pretty straight forward and everything is contained in a few screens or less so you spend less time trying to figure out what a selection does or where to find a specific setting and instead just jump right in to customization and setting up the launcher; a feature I felt that most other launchers didn't do well.
Anyways who reads these descriptions anyways. Get in there buddy.

How to install this safely
How to verify the file you downloaded
Before you install anything, confirm the file is the one described here. On a computer, run shasum -a 256 your-download.apk (macOS or Linux) or certutil -hashfile your-download.apk SHA256 (Windows), then compare the output character-for-character with the SHA-256 on this page. If a single character differs, the file is not the build we recorded — delete it.
What the signing certificate proves
Every Android app is signed with a private key that only its developer holds. The fingerprint on this page is a hash of the matching public certificate, and it proves continuity rather than identity: it tells you a build came from whoever signed the earlier ones. Android enforces this at install time — if a package claiming to be com.bearinmind.launcher314 is signed with a different key, the system will refuse to install it over your existing copy. A fingerprint that changes between releases is worth pausing on, because a repackaged app that has been modified by someone else cannot keep the original signature.
How to roll back to an earlier version
If the current release misbehaves, 0.0.19-beta is the last build before it. Android will not install an older version code over a newer one, so you must uninstall Launcher314 first — which clears its local data unless you have a backup. Reinstall the older APK only if its signing fingerprint matches the build you already trust, and check the API range: an older release may target an Android version your device has moved past.
Why we list sources instead of hosting everything
The official store channel is almost always the right choice: it updates automatically and carries the publisher's own distribution guarantees. A direct APK is useful when a device has no store access, when a rollout has not reached your region, or when you need a specific version — and only when the publisher has authorized that copy. APKBrowse does not list pirated, cracked, or unauthorized rebuilds of Launcher314, and a listing is removed when the evidence for it stops holding up.
