# Evie Launcher
## Identification
APUS, AIO, Evie, Action, CPL, Pixel UI, Lawnchair, Arc, Apex, Poco, Microsoft, Nova, ADW, ASAP, Lean, BIG, Smart Launcher, and Niagara are launcher/interface candidates. They range from commercial recommendation ecosystems to open Pixel-like replacements and accessibility/minimalist interfaces. The handwritten `500k` is a source metric of unclear type/date.
## Notebook evidence
- [[Scanned_20260730-1659#PDF page 32 — Android launcher survey headed APUS|PDF page 32: Android launcher survey headed APUS]] — This is a broader launcher taxonomy: feature-dense dashboards, Pixel emulations, tablet launchers, accessibility-oriented large interfaces, and minimalist designs. APUS is singled out at the top, anticipating the APUS corporate notes on pages 68–69. The page supports a sustained inquiry into the launcher as a **governance layer over Android**—controlling search, recommendations, app discovery, telemetry, and visual identity rather than merely icons.
