Before you get started
Here is what the app does and does not do. Please read the second point in particular before buying Premium.
-
This app does not replace the cover display itself
It does not replace or extend the stock Galaxy cover display (the screen with the clock and widgets). It does not change your device settings or the system, and the stock cover display stays as it is.
That said, it is not limited to when the app is open. Even while you are using another app, the overlay drawn on top of the screen (the Pill and Smart menus) gives you the home screen, the App Drawer, recent apps and screen rotation. The Slide Panel launches the apps you have registered, right where you are.
You can choose which items appear in the overlay, so you can keep just the actions you actually use.
-
Not every widget is guaranteed to display correctly
Widgets are loaded from the apps that provide them. The cover display is considerably smaller than a normal home screen, so depending on the widget the layout may break, the content may not fit, or it may not appear at all. Whether a widget works depends on how that widget was built, so we cannot guarantee it.
The free version lets you place one widget. Please confirm that the widget you want displays correctly before considering a Premium purchase.
Free and Premium
Every major feature works on the free version. Premium is there for when you want more freedom in your layout.
What Premium unlocks
The free version caps how many items you can place on the home screen, and the Slide Panel is unavailable. Watching one in-app ad lifts these limits for 24 hours; buying the Pro version lifts them permanently.
| Free | Premium | |
|---|---|---|
| Apps on the home screen | Up to 4 | Unlimited |
| Widgets on the home screen | Up to 1 | Unlimited |
| Slide Panel | Not available | Available |
Each ad you watch adds another 24 hours. Everything not listed above is available on the free version.
Getting started
On first launch, the app walks you through the permissions it needs to run on the cover display (display over other apps, accessibility, and usage access). Follow the on-screen steps and you are ready to go.
Privacy
Lib Launcher stores all data, such as your settings and home screen layout, only on your device. No personal information is sent to our servers. Crash information is recorded only in the app’s private storage area for troubleshooting and is never transmitted externally. Device identifiers may be collected through in-app advertising (Google AdMob). See our Privacy Policy for details.
Permissions and how they are used
The following permissions are used so the app can work as a cover display launcher. All of them are used only for on-device processing, and no information obtained through them is sent to our servers or any third party.

SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOWUsed to display the overlay (Pill and Smart menus) and the Slide Panel.
-
Usage access

Works without granting this
You can launch the app and use the home screen without granting this. Granting it enables the system “recent apps” screen, tapping through the Slide Panel bar, and automatic return to the cover display.
-
Accessibility
Accessibility serviceUsed so the app can act as a launcher on the cover display. There are three purposes.
· Perform actions such as turning off the screen and going back
· Relay a tap to the button underneath when you tap the Slide Panel bar
· Press the “Close all” button in recent apps on your behalf, as it sits where the cover display cannot reach itTo do this the app looks at the position and type of on-screen buttons, but it never records or stores what is shown on your screen, nor transmits it anywhere.
