[+]HOME
+ Home is one of the most colorful launchers that we've ever seen, the app is really unique and doesn't resemble any other application that we've ever tested.
Sleek interface with plenty of features
The app doesn't open with a tutorial and it doesn't even have instructions to get new users going. But it does however guide you through the whole process of setting it up and editing themes for your home screen.
The app launches with a theme market, allowing users to pick whichever design they'd like to add to their device. But not all of them are free and some need to be purchased.
The themes aren't really artistic, some of other are quite kitschy and playful with teddy bears and hello kitty, suitable more for children and adults. But, if you search hard enough and use categories, you might actually find one that suits your preferences.
Apply various themes to your device
You can preview themes, which not every app lets you but you'll have to download them directly from Google Play Store. The launcher is well structured, with a search bar on top of the screen and widget with the date and clock.
It relies mostly on design and versatility, meaning that it doesn't really sport that many features or shortcuts. A toolbar on the bottom of the screen gives you access to the app drawer, to your default email app and to the search feature. You can also add other shortcuts if you like.
Customize the app and tweak settings
The overflow icon opens toggles for various system settings, including to the camera, calendar, calculator, memo and WiFi settings. The launcher also comes with animation and many changes that can be done to the app drawer.
It also sorts your apps by the date added and changes the icons of applications that you've installed on your device. Other than that you can adjust the number of screens and decide how many columns and rows would be displayed on screens. Still, the app doesn't come with any transition effects or the option to download other complementary applications for your phone.
