| 2024-11-21 |  | | Thanks for the quick response and fixing the price. 1999 for lifetime plan is good pricing earlier it was 5500 one-time. Monthly plan from 264 PKR per month. it's not minimal, shows list of all apps on home screen with keyboard always visible and then we have Recently installed and Last updated tabs. |
| 2024-10-30 |  | | It's just what I needed to get some headspace away from the temptation of iconography. One note - the textbox bug where you can't unselect needs fixing however. It's managable if you don't use it and lock the screen when you do. I would buy this app if this was fixed. My purchase alone should cover the cost given the high price. |
| 2024-10-13 |  | | It was ok, until I discovered you can't delete text once you start typing. The one-time fee is $18 too, which is crazy. Most features require payment. |
| 2024-10-13 |  | | Simple yet very stylish and aesthetic. I like the whole interface the design is cool ☺️ thank you for the developer keep it up ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜 |
| 2024-10-10 |  | | Best minimalist simple to use launcher.. If possible give it some amoled looks. |
| 2024-04-21 |  | | An excellent launcher ruined by useless updates and developers greed. Literally became so laggy that it's impossible to use it. Edit: hey dev I won't mind paying for the premium membership, I completely understand you need money to keep the project running. But the problem is that when I am trying switch from x to y the launcher doesn't do it immediately, rather I have use gesture control to clear ram and then only it switches. This bug is worse day by day |
| 2023-11-18 |  | | A year ago I would've wrote this: The best minimalist app on the Play Store. After the recent updates, it's unstable. I have to manually set it as my default home app, 5 times a day. I hope it gets fixed in the near future. |
| 2023-11-12 |  | | I like this concept. But not paying monthly sub when there's launchers like nova with one time payment. Swipe down should be customisable to notifications bar. Settings isn't changed often to have to be so readily available. Horizontal swipes could have been used better. Nobody accesses letter categories through the swipe. They click the alphabet from muscle memory. Default page when returning to takan should always be starred apps. Give the option to hide apps. Many bloatware on modern phones. |
| 2023-10-02 |  | | You've made it worse now, so many things are behind a paywall, there are no mini apps or whatever the nam was(the one which made your whole screen one color was kinda useful to me) and most importantly there's no more that smooth animation of scrolling through the apps when you press letter on a keyboard that's far away of the one you're currently on. The clock when you swipe up is really clean tho. One day I'll make an app similar to this for myself but until then I'll download the previous ver |
| 2023-10-02 |  | | It is extremely glitchy. Before the last update I was able to change the font size of the apps to be really small so I wouldn't feel tempted to use the apps but they changed it and now it's just bigger text and you need to pay to be able to do anything you want |
