Hi everyone! 👋 I'm Rolet, the creator of Yin Yang Minimalist Launcher. I built this app to help people balance productivity and mindful phone use. I'd love to hear your thoughts, feedback, and any questions you might have! 🙏 Smartphones have undoubtedly become one of the greatest inventions of our time. They allow us to stay connected, capture memories, and perform tasks more efficiently. However, as these devices have become extensions of ourselves, our dependency on them has grown, often leading to unhealthy screen time habits. I, like many others, found myself spending hours on my phone, often without realizing how much time had passed. When I looked around, I noticed this problem was widespread, yet normalized. People are aware that excessive screen time is an issue, but very few take action to change it. Even with built-in tools on smartphones to manage usage, most users don’t engage with them because they feel cumbersome or too restrictive. I wanted to break this habit for myself. I needed something minimal that would help me avoid mindlessly scrolling without sacrificing the functionality of a modern smartphone. I looked into devices like the Lite Phone, Cat S22 Flip, and Boox Palma, but they all lacked basic functionalities like mobile payments, maps, or a good camera. Additionally, these devices were often slower, and purchasing them as secondary phones felt like an unnecessary step backward. What I realized was that we don’t need to slow down our phones to regain control. We should still be able to capture moments with a good camera, navigate using maps, and stay productive—all without falling into the trap of constant distractions. That’s when I turned to launchers. I tried various minimalistic launchers, but they too had their flaws. Many were dull, with uninspired text-based designs that made using the phone feel like a chore. They relied on the idea of abstinence—making the phone less appealing to use. However, I believe that abstinence is rarely effective when it comes to breaking addictive habits. What we really need is moderation. That’s when I realized we need a better interface—one that didn’t force users to avoid their phones but instead encouraged a healthy relationship with them. A launcher that made users feel productive in various aspects of their lives, without the guilt of overuse. We need balance between the helpful and distracting aspects of our phones. That’s how Yin Yang Minimalist Launcher was born—an interface designed for both minimalism and mindfulness, offering users the chance to enjoy the best of their smartphones, while managing their habits effectively. 🚀 Looking forward to hearing from you all! ✨

Congratulations on the launch 🎉 Yin Yang Minimalist Launcher looks incredible! I’ve been developing ConverForm.com, a tool that turns static forms into engaging, conversational experiences—could be a great way to connect with your early adopters. All the best ahead!

@shahar_lotan Thanks so much! Yin Yang is all about simplicity and focus, so ConverForm.com sounds really interesting. I’ll definitely check it out! Best of luck with your project as well!
