TealDesktop: Launcher with Style. Themed replacement for the standard system launcher screen.
With features to satisfy every power user, TealDesktop supports category tabs, multiple card folders, document launching, drag and drop, tap-and-hold menus, background images, fill patterns, and much more.
The addition of Themes, however, really lets TealDesktop shine. Other launchers limit you to a few visual 'skins', while TealDesktop themes can change functionality too. Want your launcher screen to look and work like a classic Macintosh? Windows? A tricorder? TealDesktop can do it.
Not satisfied with presets? TealDesktop lets you customize fonts, colors, patterns, and backgrounds. An integrated Theme Editor is even included so you can modify or make your own creations from scratch.
