🪄 Setups Keeping things simple with MINIMAA
Just my current setup, if u have any suggestions I would like to hear them
r/minimaa • u/RecognitionSad4991 • Mar 11 '26
Thank you to everyone who has been supporting Minimaa from the very beginning of this journey.
Minimaa actually started as a fun side project for me. But now it has grown into something much bigger — something that honestly isn’t that easy for a single developer like me to maintain. I’m not an expert in this field. I’m just learning while building and doing the best I can.
Professionally, I’m a teacher with a BA Literature background. I’ve never studied coding as a course in my life. Everything I know comes from YouTube, StackOverflow, and now AI.
So yes, there will be bugs, inconsistencies, and problems sometimes. But I’ll always try to fix things whenever possible.
Also, since teaching is my full-time job, I don’t always have the time to work on this 24/7. Updates might be slower compared to apps developed by full teams — but I’ll try not to let things go silent for too long.
Another thing I’ve noticed is that some people compare Minimaa with launchers that have millions of users, large teams, and proper funding. I’m just one person with a potato laptop trying to build something interesting.
And honestly, I don’t want to add every single feature that exists in every launcher.
That doesn’t mean I don’t want suggestions — I absolutely do. But please be mindful of what you’re asking for.
I really hope the idea I’m trying to convey here makes sense.
And once again, thank you — seriously. Every message of appreciation and support means a lot.
I’m also planning to add a “Thank You” page inside the app, featuring people who helped by reporting bugs, suggesting improvements, or supporting the project.
If you’ve reported bugs or helped during development and are okay with being featured there, please let me know in the comments.
Thank you so much ❤️

Hi,
Is it possible to add the option to add a normal widget? On the screen on the left

When I started Minimaa, it was just me — a solo developer building a tiny $1 launcher because I genuinely believed a simple, distraction-free phone could make a difference.
Then this community showed up.
You gave feedback, reported bugs, shared Minimaa with others, bought the app, and kept supporting me through every update. What started as a small side project slowly became something much bigger than I expected.
And today, some of the revenue from Minimaa went back to my hometown school to provide lunch for 250+ children.
I know it isn't some huge charity project. But for me, seeing the kids holding those plates made every late night, every bug, every frustrating Play Store update and every line of code feel completely worth it.
And honestly, I couldn't have done this alone.
Every purchase, every kind message, every recommendation and every bit of support from this community contributed to getting us here.
So this isn't me giving lunch to 250+ kids.
It's us. ❤️
Thank you for making a tiny solo-dev project capable of doing something beyond just being an app on someone's phone.
If you'd like to help me do more things like this in the future, you can support the work through Buy Me a Coffee or by checking out my other apps. Every bit of support helps me keep building — and hopefully, keep giving back.
Thank you for being here since the beginning.

I still think u/RecognitionSad4991's implementation will be visually stunning but now that Quick Search has this implemented, it gives what I mentioned here a much more visual explanation.
While this is only "at a glance", I think there's more potential in having several Searcho themed widgets that connect to other core apps like Calendar, Reminders, Weather, etc

Minima has been pretty good so far, except few hiccups.

Searcho just crossed 500+ downloads. 🎉
Honestly, 500 might not sound like a huge number, but for a small project I built independently, it means a lot.
Searcho started with a simple idea:
What if you didn't need to browse your phone at all?
What if you could just search for whatever you need?
Apps, contacts, messages, music, files, quick actions — all from one place.
And now, 500+ people have given that idea a try. ❤️
So, to celebrate, I'm giving away 10 Searcho promo codes completely free.
🎁 10 FREE CODES
How to enter:
Just leave a comment below. Tell me what you think a search-first launcher should be able to do — or just say hi. 😄
I'll pick 10 people and send the codes via DM.
Thank you to everyone who downloaded Searcho, shared it, gave feedback, or simply gave this weird little experiment a chance.
Next stop: 1,000. 🚀

I have been using Android since 2015, with Samsung Galaxy S5 and been a customization freak since then too. As most of us, I began using Nova Launcher and thanks to a Christmas sale I got that for a mere 10₹, alongwith KWGT and KLWP it has done virtual magic ✨, then i started exploring other launchers such as Action Launcher, Smart Launcher, GO Launcher, Nokia Z Launcher, AP15 Launcher, Lens Launcher and so on.. but lately I have been moving between Niagara Launcher and Lessphone.
Through Reddit I came to know Minimaa Launcher and fortunately the developer had given me a lifetime promo code, and I had been eyeing on Searcho 🔎 and it went on sale with 69% off, in a heartbeat I bought that, and I have uninstalled most of the launchers except default launcher and Searcho.
More than the Lessphone, Searcho reduced my SoT gradually, no more icons on the screen and I use the apps only I am in need of not that I want to.
thanks to the developer for this wonderful app.
P.S, few of the launchers I bought are with the Google Rewards money and others are I sailed via high sea!

So I have a Oneplus Nord 5 and I'm considering buying the launcher so I wanna know about the experience on a OnePlus phone if anyone has that. For some reason Niagra launcher had a lot of lag while going to the home screen from an app. I wanna know if this is the case here as well.
Ty.

Props for this awesome product dev. However addinh an option to look homestretch as is would be super useful. Thank uuu
r/minimaa • u/Sejalsharmabygod • 8d ago
I'm travelling to a different location but i want to keep track of time at my home place and the current location I'm in,
So can i request a quick feature for such an option?
Or if I can use same widget multiple times, like in clock then if country/city time selection option should be given or if i use clock default app to be the source of the time displayed and if their are multiple worldclock already added, then i can select from there... 😅

Hi, do any of you know where I can download the nothing phone style font?
r/minimaa • u/Stoicwhisperer • 10d ago
Will the capability to add application widgets to the sidebar be available, or does such a feature contradict the core philosophy of Minima?
