Android launcher · Free · Open source
A quiet launcher
for a loud world.
BLNAK replaces noise with intent. A minimalist Android home screen designed to help you use your phone less — not more.
No data stolen
Zero telemetry. No analytics. No network permission — verify it yourself.
No ads shown
Not now. Not ever. No sponsored tiles, no recommended apps, no paid placements.
No account needed
No sign-up, no email, no profile. The app does not know who you are.
Open source
Every line is on GitHub under GPL-3.0. Audit it, fork it, trust it.
Built on principles, not growth metrics.
Search-first
Type two letters, launch. No swiping through pages of icons you never open.
Zero telemetry
No analytics, no ads, no tracking SDKs. Your launcher should not be a product.
Fast on anything
Runs smoothly on 5-year-old phones. Under 5 MB install size.
Open source
Every line is auditable on GitHub. Forever.
Mindful defaults
A blank home screen by default. You decide what deserves a shortcut.
Dark & light
System-aware themes. Effortlessly readable at 3 a.m. or noon.
