How to change the Home Screen Launcher on your Android device

Even the most ardent Apple fans must be jealous of the level of customization that Android users enjoy.

From the camera to the keyboard, in the past week we’ve shown you how to customize both of these on your Android device.

Now it’s time for us to help you transform your Home Screen Launcher.

You use the Home Screen Launcher a lot so it stands to reason that you might want to play around with it and customize it a little bit.

Interestingly, the Home Screen Launcher is actually an app. Every time you click ‘Home’ you’re opening that app.

The good thing about this, is that the fact that it’s an app makes it as easy to change as say the camera and the keyboard; A.K.A. extremely easy.

So here’s how to change your Home Screen Launcher:

  • Open Google Play Store -> Search the word: “Launcher” -> Click on the Home Screen Launcher you would like to download -> Click “Install”

After this you will be brought to a page which gives you the option to “Open” the newly downloaded Home Screen Launcher. If you do select “Open” then it will become your default Home Screen Launcher.

To avoid this, when you reach the “Open” page click the “Home” button and you’ll be able to choose the option to use this particular Home Screen Launcher “Only Once” which will allow you to try it before you commit to it long term.

There are so many options in regard to Home Screen Launchers that you’re sure to find something to suit your style within the mass of options.

So much so, that even if you’re an Apple fan who has been forced to use an Android device due to work or whatever else you can actually download an ‘Apple Launcher.’

Whatever it is you’re looking for by changing the Home Screen Launcher you can keep upgrading your home screen to find the one that suits you best.
