Features:

  • Beautiful metro homescreen
  • Personalize your homescreen with your favorite apps, contacts, and widgets
  • Rearrange tiles with drag and drop
  • Sidebar in Charmbar®-style
  • Fast access to your main functions: internet, store, contacts, etc.
  • See your recently opened apps
  • Customize your background with (live) wallpaper
  • Change displayed account name and image
  • Optimized for tablets and smartphones
  • Quick-search via sidebar
  • Customize your launcher with lots of settings

This launcher stands out from others by offering a similar design to the Windows 8 Surface® instead of imitating Windows Phone®.

Free-Version Restrictions:

The free version of Metro Launcher comes with some limitations. Widgets are not available in the free version, and any personal adjustments you make will be restored after 15 minutes. If you want to remove these limitations, you can purchase the Pro Version from the Store.

Please note that this launcher is still in development, so stay tuned for upcoming changes.

  • Why don't you make it like the original Windows 8?
    - We don't want to clone Windows 8 for Android, but rather provide the Metro interface for your Android homescreen. There won't be a desktop implementation, and not every functionality can be provided because this is not Windows 8.1®.
