HOW TO USE OBLIVION: 1) Create a gesture. 2) Associate an action. 3) Draw the gesture — and an app or shortcut will be launched. A Home Screen should be a launchpad, not a billboard. Yet every extra icon, badge, and widget competes for your attention the moment you unlock your phone. Research on cognitive load shows that even brief visual clutter can nudge you into unplanned scrolling and task-switching. Oblivion pares the surface down to three essentials: time, theme, and the gestures you actually use. By replacing rows of apps with a near-black canvas and muscle-memory strokes, it lets you act first and notice less. That quiet space pays off in everyday focus. Instead of scanning pages or pulling down Search, you draw the letter “M” and Music starts; sketch a tiny arc and a Shortcut turns on Do Not Disturb. Because the launcher hides until you call it up—your regular Home Screen stays intact while your fast lane stays friction-free. If you’ve ever unlocked your phone for one task and found yourself lost in notifications minutes later, a minimalist command layer isn’t a luxury; it’s a boundary. Oblivion gives you the speed you want and the silence you need, so every swipe starts with intent and ends exactly where you meant to go. *ACCESS TO OBLIVION LAUNCHER REQUIRES A PAID SUBSCRIPTION TERMS: https://www.oblivion-app.com/terms PRIVACY POLICY: https://www.oblivion-app.com/privacy
