Slim Launcher - Fewer distract APK Download for Android
Description
Slim launcher only allows you to use fewer apps on your phone. Giving you more time to enjoy life as it was intended. Also a perfect app for a minimalist lifestyle.
All you need is less.
But this launcher comes with a twist #1 No wallpapers: Of course Slim comes with a few color themes but that's it. (This is a good thing, trust me)
#2 Slim only allows you to use 5 apps on your mobile. Of course, you can switch and choose the ones you want but cheating slim by always replacing your choices becomes annoying.
#3 No app icons on the home screen. You make your pick to the apps you need the most and they will be displayed by the name on the home screen.
This gives you a pretty simple theme with no sudden distractions.
Don't be afraid to try it out! It's best for minimalists, students who want a strict routine or just about anyone who wants a cleaner, less cluttered home screen.

How to install Slim Launcher - Fewer distract APK on Android phone or tablet?
Download Slim Launcher - Fewer distract APK file from ApkClean, then follow these steps:
Update Phone Settings
Go to your phone Settings page
Tap Security or Applications (varies with device)
Check the Unknown Sources box
Confirm with OK
Go to Downloads
Open Downloads on your device by going to My Files or Files
Tap the APK file you downloaded (com.sduduzog.slimlauncher-v2.4.21-ApkClean.apk)
Tap Install when prompted, the APK file you downloaded will be installed on your device.
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading). As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

3 ★Exactly the launcher I'm look for. But the problem started when i want to make a call, dialler icon on the side is not working and where are is the app drawer. I can't always be with 5 or 6 apps i want to open different app now and then for opening a app i have to add it to the home screen first. plz add a app drawer and make this dialler work as fast as possible. other than this i just loved it, it looks clean. actually too clean without app drawer.
5 ★This app is exactly what I need. I have only one problem: not all homescreen shortcuts work on my phone. I can only launch the camera and the calendar. However, I can't launch either the clock or the phone's dialer. my system details: OS: android 7.1.2 UI: Flyme 7.1.1.0G and the phone is rooted. I would highly appreciate fixing this issue.
4 ★Really neat app. I'd like it if I could put all of the apps on the homescreen where I could just scrolls down, instead of just 5 apps on the home screen. I can't seem to access any of my other apps. I like not having an app drawer. I thought originally this would be just a list of apps in text form. Still a really cool idea!
4 ★This app is the best thing on playstore. It may be just my phone or the app I dont know but I expected it to save battery for me as well but It is taking a lot of battery than it should take. It takes the same amount of battery as much the system launcher takes besides that everything is just top notch. I would like to thank the Dev. for making this app available free. This app is just amazing.
3 ★This is the only minimalist launcher where I can access my work profile apps. Kudos for that. I'd give 5 stars if we were able to access all apps. At some point I will need to check my bank or something other than the limited apps I'm able to add. As a workaround I've added an additional launcher to the list that lets me open all apps. It's annoying but it works in those cases where I need something not on the limited app list.
4 ★Awesome app ! particular error- happens when i am in split screen and then i press home button some app are not visible,unless i clear recent apps suggestion- the setting arrow( ^ ) at bottom of the screen ruins the overall text only look . It would look more cool to have it on upper left corner or something. But hey thats just what i think . Very nice app 👍
3 ★BUG : If too many lines in notes the keyboard hides the writing and it doesnt scroll. Maybe its not a bug but it would be better if you do that The interface is great and it fulfils the reason for which i downloaded it-Declutter the look of my phone. The themes should be more customisable with choice of colors. I like the concept and its better than the apps i have installed better. The upcoming in notes is a great thing to lauch and i am waiting for it. it also be great to have password notes
5 ★I had been using LessPhone hoping for an open source alternative to come along, and I finally found Slim! Not only is it open source, it's just a better launcher overall. The design is clean, minimalist, and beautiful. I'd you're looking for a way to minimize distractions on your phone, this is 100% the way to go!
5 ★A beautifully executed minimalist launcher. Just wish it had an option to increase the no. of apps. I know it would kind of, defeat the purpose, but the upper limit to not exceed 10. Or maybe a way to execute default maps and transportation(uber) with a small icon maybe towards the unused corners. Just like phone and camera.
4 ★Really like this launcher but I would love a version (or additional settings) with a simple, customizable app drawer for apps only used occasionally (like maps, timers, etc). No one really 'needs' more than 5 apps but there are things I use for work and productivity I would like quick access to. I would pay for a more moderate and customizable version like that with the same theme. Less Phone launcher does something similar but doesn't have a separate app drawer so its more distracting.
5 ★fantastic, beautiful app! if you're looking for ideas heres what would make it perfect: -change text alignment; right, or left -haptic touch feedback when launching apps -option to change time widget to weather, music, notes, etc -option to change between fonts; nexa light, roboto thin, product sans, and other minimal fonts -buttons bounds go horizontally so you dont have to click the text every time -better notch support -custom spacing for different screen sizes
4 ★Great minimal launcher for those looking to take a break from their phone. Some bugs, though: The last digit of the clock sometimes doesn't show up, and sometimes , the apps I set don't come up, so I have to go to Customise Apps and then come back out to see them again. The swiping on the home screen csn be a bit weird sometimes (but it's brobably because of my screen protector).
