Super sleek. This has helped me at various times to rein in my app scrolling and focus my attention to the apps I actually use regularly.
Unavailable developer
Worked well at first when I paid for it. But the developer changed it to subscription model and wont reply to email for “complimentary upgrade”.
Love a dumb launcher
These really are the best. Love a minimal look
Can’t get past paying for it
Once I purchased the one week subscription, I was completely blocked from continuing. I can’t hit continue no matter what. I hardly even got to set up the app. I’m so sad, I was really hoping for this to work
Strong developer support
While the app does occasionally break after big IOS updates, the developer Yehven is receptive and fixes bugs as they come up
Good app, one big problem
Yea this app is very good, if and when it works. Every update your widgets will break completely or disappear. Not at all what I paid for.
Edit: like I said, the app itself functions very well. But even one of the recent updates broke all of my widgets. It’s annoying to have to spend 10 mins fixing it each update. That being said, the developer is easy to contact with any issues. I wish there were less bugs, but yevhen is quick to help when there are problems.

Deleted it after the latest update.
“Bug fixes and improvements” actually meant hiding the most useful feature behind a paywall. I’m not paying $4.99 a month for a launcher.
Very well done
Thank you developers
Used to be great. It now no longer works
Updating to the IOS 18 caused the app to stop working. It’s been a few months, and I can’t recommend paying anything until the developer fixes their app
Good App!
I like the idea of the app. When it is working I really enjoy its look and feel. Despite some slight stability issues (that the developer helped me fix below), the app itself offers more customizability than any competitor, and the developer is very helpful and responsive. I believe it is the best DumbPhome app on the market.

Scam
Paid for app a while ago and suddenly stopped work as of recently. Deleted and reinstalled and met with a new subscription model. No restore purchase option, thanks for stealing my money. Don't pay $80 a year for it, was barely worth it when it was a one time payment of a few bucks. It doesn't function like a finished product and has issues constantly.

Stops working
App randomly stops working often and the apps launcher stops launching apps. Super annoying. When it works it’s cool but frustrating when it stops doing the only thing it’s supposed to do. Especially for 10$
Every update breaks it
Really liked the simplicity of the app and used it regularly for 6 months only for a new update to get pushed to break it. I’ve had to replace every widget by hand at least 4 times, now it no longer even works
Very very good
Been using this for about a year now. Really limits my app usage
They ruined it
The app was great but the last update completely wiped all the widgets (and I had several that I’d put a lot of thought into) and then this most recent update makes it so that it only opens the app rather than triggering the shortcut. So it’s now completely useless.
I’ll hold out for a minute to see if they fix it but after that, I’ve learned my lesson and I’m not going to update this app ever again.
And no, recreating them doesn’t fix the problem.

Delete the app completely and reinstall the latest version from the App Store, and everything will work. I’m also working on something really cool for the next update — hope you’ll update it too :)
Very unreliable
I like the idea of the app. When it is working I really enjoy its look and feel. However, every update breaks the functionality, only opening the dumb phone app but not the apps themselves. In order to get the app to work on the most recent update the usual (and very tedious) strategy of remaking all of the widgets didn’t work and I had to uninstall and reinstall the app. When I reinstalled, it took away my plus membership and is now prompting me to pay. From the most generous point of view this is extremely incompetent, and from the least generous it borders on scam.

Like the app, Hate restarting
Great, simple app with nice features, like app rotation randomization. I’ve had it for around a year now, but every few months the widget will either, stop working, or recently all my widgets got wiped clean. This is extremely frustrating to have to keep remaking all my lists.
Response from developer
I get how annoying it is to rebuild everything from scratch. There was a major update recently and some setups didn’t carry over correctly, but it’s now stable so this shouldn’t keep happening.
Was great while it worked
I have been using this app for almost a year and within the last handful of months it just stopped working. I have reached out via the support email twice with emails and I’ve gotten no response back for help. I will be abandoning this app.

Anything new in v4?
Anything new with the latest update? Should we expect anything?
