Mnml shows your apps as a list of names instead of a grid of icons. Each app is a full-width band, and the first is filled with your accent. Folders open inside the list, pressing Return in search opens the first match, and the list can be ordered by how often you use each app. The header shows the time, date, battery and today's step count, with space for your name and a short motto. You choose the accent, the background (a gradient or one of your photos), a block, seven-segment or LED clock, and compact, regular or tall bands. Band numbers and side rails can be turned off. Your setup can be shared as an image. Each image includes a look code, and entering it in Mnml applies the same accent, background, clock and band style to your own apps. Widgets put your top apps, the time or your steps on the Home Screen and Lock Screen. The Mnml Search control opens straight into search from Control Center, the Lock Screen or the Action button. An optional animated character can sit on Mnml's home screen and walk along your list. It responds to steps, battery level and the time of day, and stays off until you turn it on. Mnml has no ads or in-app purchases. Your app list, launch history and step data are stored on your iPhone and not collected. dro1d.org --- Privacy: https://dro1d.org/mnml-privacy.html Terms: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
