This looks insanely clean. I never considered switching away from the default OnePlus launcher (other than using Nova, but it doesn't work well with gesture navigation), because I saw it as an integral part of the smartphone experience to have app pages and a regulare app drawer. Now I realize that a launcher is nothing more than the gateway to the *actual* smartphone experience: the apps. I really want to give this a go and see how it affects my smartphone usage and how I think of smartphones in general.
For years people wanted better screens and stuff, and when they got there they started inventing the software to make everything monochromatic. Cool. :D
People r idiots first they went from curved/ non flat screen to flat screen, black n white to colored , now they r going back to curved screens , colourless pictures.etc Some idiots can never be satisfied even with all the goods
It's meant to minimize distractions which is very essential to do in this day and age. I turn my phone on Monochrome mode from developer settings so that I don't get distracted during Digital School work.
A subscription model would be repelling. I'd rather pay a fixed price for it and use it on my current phone forever. Then if I love it and adapt to it, I'll buy it again for my next phone.
@MANGOES _ARE_LIGMA I think the launcher, but again, I'm not sure how many updates the developers are planning to have.. if it's not that often having a subscription isn't the best of things.
Instead of just a launcher, why not make a whole GSI? Since GSIs don't require to be ported to individual devices. They should make their own UI with this minimalist and extremely useful design.
Yeah, they should just release their own GSI, a Custom ROM distribution. If they just want to release a launcher, they better release it on Play Store.
Cause the vast majority of users will not know how/ want to deal with rooting their phone, or simply cannot due to a locked bootloader. It's so much easier to just push a button to install an app than to spend a half hour setting up your phone from scratch, so 99% of people won't even bother to give it a shot.
@@eddydrouet1888 oh yeah, the locked and impossible to unlock bootloaders from those carrier-locked phones. But, they already made a phone with their UI. There are even programs that can automatically convert ROMs to GSIs, albeit with some minor kinks that need to be straightened afterwards.
Mainly because GSIs suck, I guess. If u have the option to use a ROM specifically built for ur phone, always do so. I don't disagree with the custom ROM thing completely, I just think they should make it open source so that people can built and optimize it for their own devices, if they decide to make it a ROM.

If the product is good I'll pay for it but that being said most launchers have a free version or are a very cheap one time fee. I'll wait until the full version to judge but it looks like they're trying to milk us a little too much with a subscription model, at least compared to other similar developers, but we will see.
Damn, I'm in love too. This is exactly the kind of innovation we need from tech companies. And things like this are exactly why an open OS like Android is so important.
Android is everthing but open - it's pseudo open if anything. Closed code. It is as open as Windows, i.e. not very much. Perhaps open for people who know very little about software development.
A Launcher directly from Microsoft that is exactly like the Windows Phone was would be perfect :D (I know, that MS already has a launcher but it isn't very different from any other launcher)
@@maikwei8402 i used to have a windows phone, and am currently a lot happier than I expected to be with their launcher. It is not the same, but the differences are usually in the "not that important" range ( i dont love square tiles )
I'm still amazed at how many features Windows Phone had that still don't exist elsewhere. Like as far as I can tell, I can't pin a contact group to my home screen and use it to text everyone in that group. And Windows Phone was beautiful. Android and iOS are just bland.

I am very much looking forward to getting to test this out, it seems pretty amazing to me, very customizable which is something very important to me. Excited to try it.
The music, the content and delivery of information in a video is spot on and done right. It's good to see you experiment a bit differently from time to time ✌🏻
I find this app pretty very interesting, the only problem right now is phone compatibility. Only high-end phones have the possibility of using this app which is sad for now.
Depends how much it is, if they ask 5 euros a year or something, and it changes how I use my phone, sure. If they ask 5 euros a month, maybe I'll find something else.
@@jadoei13 You know they're not going to ask for 5 Euros a year though. I generally find Android subscriptions ask for almost as much as Netflix or Spotify
Niagara is trying to get people to do subscriptions. I'd love to have the pro, cause it's my favorite launcher next to Nova, but I'm not paying a subscription for a launcher
I love it because it's not just a launcher to make phone UI pretty (and laggy & slow) like most of launchers, but it makes things a lot more functional and expands and adds new functions. Recommended!!
People actually liked that homescreen, it was the one pro that people actually praised the windows phone on, like literally check any fucking review, it was a great UI and nobody really hated it, the problem was that the windows phone never got a strong app ecosystem which led to it's downfall
@@HeYoNiA not because it wasn't possible, it was because Google and the other app companies ganged up against windows phone... There was a youtube app and several youtube clients. They were way better than the Google youtube app..... Google had them pulled out of the app store. Same with Snapchat with 6snap and many other apps.
I wouldn't advise it. This thing barely qualifies for Alfa state. For someone with an iPhone, anything with Nova Launcher it's more customization that you can handle. I suggest to get a one plus, and keep it stock or slap nova on it. That should do the trick untill you become familiar with tweaking. I don't consider myself an avg Android user, but not a power user either. Just to reset my phone, it takes me sometimes half a day, to place everything exactly as it was, tie everything, reshape everything back again, reconfigure the permissions and conditions back to where they were etc.etc., and that's with making some use of system copies, otherwise it would take me days.
Sadly one has to wait for the Launch as you sign up for it and are warned their is a long wait..unless someone knows different! Thanks for a great video ..
Not bad. I'm using niagara launcher since 2018 and I love it. Black background, white icons and its even much simpler than this launcher. You only get 1 simpler.
Yeah in a way, but with software I'm not sure I'd always agree. You want them to update the app with new app support, bug fixes ect. A subscription model is a great way to motivate them to keep developing the app. The only problem is that subscription models are often way more expensive over the course of several years. If instead they just make it no more a few euros a year, then I'd be alright with that.
I guess. To me bigger phones are easier to hold, I personally had a hard time holding smaller phone because I'm dumb and twirl my phone in the hand also I can get a good grip on the phone
It was going so well, until the "subscription" model. I am strongly against subscription based models, and having such a nice and new way of using a phone ruined by such a crappy system is a real shame. Other than that, great video!

I was literally about to buy a new phone. Then I found Ratio and it fixed everything I wanted with Android launchers . I can’t wait for tree to come out though. Time to handle email different. Also, if they want money for this, they can have it.
Dude, I know lots of people here are much happier to pay one time for a launcher, but I'd be willing to pay for a subscription to support this team and project. Like many people are saying, it seems like more than a launcher, and I'd love to see the concept executed to the end.
It's a really interesting project and I'd be willing to try it, even if it requires a subscription, but I don't know if the approach of porting it to individual devices is the way forward. I love my Meizu 16th, but there is no ways they will consider it with this small of a market share.
@@yerbal87 What did you find, this comment or that Hindi Letter on google or somehwere, and if google then how did you found that. Did you took screenshot and then reverse image searched that?
if this were an open source project, i'd actually be excited because the community could make it work. but since it's a small company trying to sell a proprietary layer on top of proprietary OS it's just a matter of time until it crashes and burns or is bought by a company that ruins it.
I used Windows phone in the past and now I understand why I am a Blloc Zero18 user now. Both are elegant, don't make feel phone is messy. It is beauty of minimalism and functionality combined, I really love those products. I gave feedback to devs and boy they are very responsive, helping I like the idea of having more control on YOUR own phone. No stupid bloatware, no ads in system apps or sth. Ringtone is a real phone and reminds you that you got more important things to do than scrolling through cat gifs. Minimalists Unite!
Hahaha a subscription fee for a launcher? I know about 'cutting the cord' but people are going to start to 'cut the card' because this subscription stuff is getting ridiculous.
Good but Nova launcher has everything I want. Basically I get all the features from the video by set up my digital well being app and installing kde connect in both my phone and desktop.
It looks fun, but a tad complicated. It also looks like it would struggle to run smoothly on less than flagship tier phones. I'm a Nova Prime user and I'll be sticking with it. Great video!
Since there are no APIs for swipe gestures, when you use swipe gesture, you will see wallpaper there. So I eill use black screen as wallpaper so that it looks seamless

I hope it'll be available some day. This launcher looks dope af!
Just install the oneplus 7 launcher and see if it works. They are essentially the same phone
@@NoName-mg2yj hmm alright. I'll give it a shot.
@@CoffeeEmblem did it work?
@@onestepup9950 I signed up for an invite. Will have to wait till I get a download link haha.
@@CoffeeEmblem Did you select OP7?
This looks like an awesome launcher, I'll seriously give it s try once it launches
Damn, I think my most used apps are about to change from TH-cam, Instagram and Twitter.... To this damn launcher alone 😁😁
I was literally about to buy a new phone. Then I found Ratio and it fixed everything I wanted with Android launchers . I can’t wait for tree to come out though. Time to handle email different. Also, if they want money for this, they can have it.
If they just wanted to release a launcher, better release it on playstore instead of doing subscription model
Holy shit, did I just fin a tech reviewer who actually cares about user privacy, this is like christmas for me! love your videos!
** this launcher will help yoh spend less time on apps
*me* spends 48 hours trying to figure out what to do
Where can i find that launcher?
@@_kiaz_ you have to sign up for them at their website
@@mr_ks_gaming i did the same but still no link to download.
@@UsamaKhan-dg1vu same i also registered for it and got the email , but still didn't got anything :-)
Dude, I know lots of people here are much happier to pay one time for a launcher, but I'd be willing to pay for a subscription to support this team and project. Like many people are saying, it seems like more than a launcher, and I'd love to see the concept executed to the end.
It's a really interesting project and I'd be willing to try it, even if it requires a subscription, but I don't know if the approach of porting it to individual devices is the way forward. I love my Meizu 16th, but there is no ways they will consider it with this small of a market share.
Can the OnePlus 7 launcher version work for OnePlus 6t?
2:30 if anyone wants to know that what is in the right of ID icon, the seventh one. Its Hindi which pronounces like "pay".
Info no one asked for lol
Jesus christ it took me 2 minutes to find it 🤣🤣 what a waste of time about sthg I don't even care 😂😂
@@yerbal87 What did you find, this comment or that Hindi Letter on google or somehwere, and if google then how did you found that. Did you took screenshot and then reverse image searched that?
The icon on the launcher...😂😂
Woah, Sepultura. Nice taste
if this were an open source project, i'd actually be excited because the community could make it work. but since it's a small company trying to sell a proprietary layer on top of proprietary OS it's just a matter of time until it crashes and burns or is bought by a company that ruins it.
I used Windows phone in the past and now I understand why I am a Blloc Zero18 user now. Both are elegant, don't make feel phone is messy. It is beauty of minimalism and functionality combined, I really love those products. I gave feedback to devs and boy they are very responsive, helping
I like the idea of having more control on YOUR own phone. No stupid bloatware, no ads in system apps or sth. Ringtone is a real phone and reminds you that you got more important things to do than scrolling through cat gifs.
Minimalists Unite!
Hahaha a subscription fee for a launcher? I know about 'cutting the cord' but people are going to start to 'cut the card' because this subscription stuff is getting ridiculous.
Hey they don't have the os for all android devices. I have a poco, can you please help me install it on my phone
Subscription is a big turn off for me and probably for many people. I would rather pay once than just pay again and again
FINALLY! Really wanted to buy the phone but lacked some flagship features that I felt I needed. Been waiting for this OS release ever since!
Good but Nova launcher has everything I want. Basically I get all the features from the video by set up my digital well being app and installing kde connect in both my phone and desktop.
I hope they can allow you to set specific apps as "stay away from" apps by setting them to a black & white screen whenever you turn Focus Assist on.
Too bad they plan on going with a subscription fee. Another thing we'll have to pirate.
Or you could, you know, not pirate it? People need to make a living
Don't tell me what to do, thanks. Otherwise, great video.
It looks fun, but a tad complicated. It also looks like it would struggle to run smoothly on less than flagship tier phones. I'm a Nova Prime user and I'll be sticking with it. Great video!
"has arrived". Then explains it hasn't launched yet. Frustrating title choice
Just loved the concept!!!
There's no such thing as an ultimate Android Launcher. It's all personal preference. That thing looks ugly. No thank you.
Since there are no APIs for swipe gestures, when you use swipe gesture, you will see wallpaper there. So I eill use black screen as wallpaper so that it looks seamless
