Lawnchair is a free, open-source home screen launcher for Android built on AOSP's Launcher3, porting Pixel Launcher features and adding rich customization. It offers Material You theming, At a Glance widgets, global search, and icon pack support without requiring root.

Use cases

  • replace the default android home screen with a customizable launcher
  • get pixel launcher features on any android device
  • customize android home screen icons fonts and colors
  • use material you theming on a non-pixel phone
  • add at a glance widget and global search to my home screen
  • open source launcher without root

When to choose

  • you want a Pixel Launcher-like experience with extra customization on Android
  • you want an open-source, free home app with icon packs, fonts, and theming options
  • you want At a Glance, Smartspacer, or QuickSwitch integrations

When to avoid

  • you need an iOS-style or heavily different launcher paradigm rather than a Pixel-style home screen
  • you want a fully stable release - the Lawnchair 16 branch is in development and may crash; stick to the 15 beta
  • you are not on Android - it is an Android-only app
