Make your smartphone simple again.
Classic Phone Launcher transforms your Android into a clean, distraction-free experience inspired by classic feature phones. Perfect for seniors, kids, digital detox, and anyone who wants a calmer phone.

One launcher, four ways to use your phone
Choose the mode that fits your life — or switch at any time. Each mode is tailored to a different need without changing any other app on your phone.

Classic Mode
A clean, simplified home screen for everyday users who want less clutter. Large buttons, clear labels, fast access to calls and apps.

Senior Mode
Extra-large controls, high-contrast themes, and call confirmation prompts to prevent accidental dials. Designed with older adults in mind.

Kid Mode
Caregivers set an allowed-app list and protect settings with a PIN. No ads, no analytics — a safe environment for children.

Focus Mode
Digital detox on demand. Schedule minimal layouts, block distracting apps, set a countdown timer, and track screen-free sessions.

Everything you need, nothing you don't
Classic Phone Launcher keeps the essentials front and center — no hidden menus, no confusing gestures, no bloat.

Pin up to 9 contacts on your home screen for one-tap calling. Unlimited slots with Premium.
T9 Search
Type a few numbers on the classic keypad to instantly find contacts and apps — just like the phones of old.
Emergency SOS Screen
One-tap emergency calling with a configurable SOS contact, local emergency number, and on-device medical info. No ads, ever.
Simple App Drawer
All installed apps in one clean, alphabetically sorted list. Search, long-press to hide, or add to favorites.
Themes & Layouts
4 free themes including High Contrast for accessibility. Premium unlocks retro-inspired LCD Green, Black Keypad, and Monochrome.
PIN-Protected Settings
Lock your launcher configuration with a PIN so kids can't change modes or settings — fully under caregiver control.

Classic Phone Launcher is a free Android home screen replacement app that simplifies your phone's interface, inspired by classic feature phones. It gives you large buttons, quick access to calls, contacts, messages, and apps — without the clutter of the default Android launcher.
No. Classic Phone Launcher is a launcher — it only changes your home screen. All existing apps, contacts, photos, and data remain exactly as they are. Switching to a new launcher is completely reversible and does not modify any app or file on your phone.
Go to Settings → Help → Switch Launcher inside the app, then tap "Open Default Apps Settings" and choose your original launcher from the list. The in-app guide walks you through every step.
The app requests READ_CONTACTS only to display contacts on your home screen speed dial and contacts list. Your contacts are never uploaded, shared, or stored outside your device. You can deny this permission and the launcher will still work.
Kid Mode lets a caregiver set a list of allowed apps and lock settings with a PIN so children only access approved apps. All advertising and analytics are completely disabled in Kid Mode (COPPA compliance). Note: Kid Mode is launcher-level and best-effort — a very determined user could still reach other apps through Android Settings.
Focus Mode is a digital detox tool. You set a list of allowed apps, configure a schedule or countdown timer, and the launcher hides everything else. Usage time is tracked locally on-device — no data leaves your phone.
The SOS screen gives fast, one-tap access to emergency contacts. You can set one personal SOS contact and one emergency number (defaults to 112). Optional medical info can be stored locally. This screen never shows ads — that is a hard rule with no exceptions.
Premium is purchased through Google Play Billing inside the app. The Lifetime option is a one-time $4.99 payment — never charged again. Refunds are handled by Google Play's standard policy (within 48 hours of purchase). You can restore your purchase at any time by tapping "Restore Purchase" on the Premium screen.
Classic Phone Launcher supports Android 8.0 (API 26) and above, up to Android 15 (API 35). It is optimized for low-end devices with as little as 2 GB of RAM.
Ads (banner and native only — no full-screen interruptions) appear only in the Themes screen and Settings screen for free users. They are never shown on the home screen, contacts, call screen, emergency screen, or during onboarding. Purchasing Premium removes all ads permanently.
All launcher data is stored locally on your device. Cloud backup and restore across devices is planned for a future update (V2.0). Until then, clearing app data or uninstalling will remove your launcher configuration.
