Lose the fat, keep the muscle. Be warned, Lightning Launcher is on steroïds.

This might be the fastest home screen replacement for Android. Lightning Launcher is nevertheless packed with great features, and with its impressive set of customization options your home screen will look like no other.
Make your home screen yours now.

* How to use
Lightning Launcher is a home screen replacement, also known as shell. It is started through the HOME key and not from your app drawer since LL is itself a launcher. If you cannot select it through the HOME key then you need to clear the defaults for your current launcher (Android settings -> Apps -> your current launcher -> "clear defaults")

* Main features
- Forget your limited set of 4x4 panes, with Lightning Launcher you have much more flexibility. Think at your home screen as a limitless space where you can put your apps and widgets wherever you want. LL has support for bi-directionnal scrolling (left/right, up/down) and zooming.
- Lightning Launcher has support for multiple pages too (up to 100, should be enough...), and each page is a new unlimited universe, with its own configuration. If you need room for hundreds of apps, shortcuts and widgets, then LL is ready for you !
- LL lets you put apps where you want, but most importantly it lets you configure icons the way you want on your home screen. Each item can be configured independantly, including font, colour, icon, label, size and even rotation.
- LL has pretty powerful folders. You can put apps and shortcuts in folder of course, but you can put widgets too, and even other folders ! Meaning that things can possibly sorted in a hierarchical fashion. Needless to say that each folder can be fully customized of course.
- This application has been designed to minimize memory usage and be fast: the more memory you have for your applications, the faster they will run. In other words Lightning Launcher has been built from the ground to preserve your phone's resources and keep it smooth. Even the package is small, less than 60kb (compared to 6.8M for Go, LL is more than 100 times smaller).

* Hints
- Please note that support for classic Android widgets is not installed by default in order to save memory and resources. But don't worry you just have to use the free "LLW App Widget" plugin to use your favourite Android widgets too.
