🔐 Important Transparency Notice

Car Launcher uses the Android Accessibility Service.

Why? The service is required to recognize edge swipe gestures (Back, Home, Recent Apps) and convert them into system navigation actions. This provides convenient alternative control.

What the app does NOT do:
• It does NOT read, analyze, or collect your screen content, typed text, or personal data.
• It does NOT have access to data from other apps (messages, calls, photos).
• It does NOT change system settings without your knowledge.
• It does NOT collect, store, or transmit your personal data or usage data.

Your Control & Privacy:
• Use of the service is voluntary.
• Upon first launch, a clear dialog will appear requesting access with an explanation.
• You can always disable it in your device settings: Android Settings → Accessibility → Car Launcher.

Enjoy your drive with Car Launcher!

Comments about Car Launcher Android Version

I've tried pretty much every car launcher on the play store. This one is head-&-shoulders above the rest when it comes to simplicity & functionality, & I find the UI more intuitive than any other I've tried. Some reviews have mentioned shortcut or music player problems... There's a carousel on the home screen I set shortcuts to with no problems, & the music player features on the home screen require you to set a music player first. (Set the default music player with the lower left music icon.)
After trying several car apps, this is by far the best one, with Android Auto coming in a close second. AA would be better with a few changes, but I think for now I'll try this one out. The grey theme is definitely the best IMO, though it could be much better. It looks like it's very customizable, so I could probably make it very close to what I'd like, but I'm not ready to pay for it yet, which is required to customize. I'm also not convinced a car app would be preferable to running waze and a music player in split screen. I do have concerns about this app due to it not being updated in months and some reviews indicated a lack of support. If it does well with some on-road testing and it receives more updates, I may buy it. I also have concerns due to the permissions these car apps require and this being a Russian app, but this one doesn't seem to need accessibility service access, which is the one I'd be mainly worried about.
Dissapointed that spending hours configuring and modifying the free version when I bought the full version I lost all my hours of work vs other apps where the paid version unlocks the code or full features. Soured the experience and considering all the questions on setting up the free version and accepting screens etc you have plenty of chances to advise people. If there is an export feature I missed I'll revise my review. Must be #1 for a reason.

Is Car Launcher safe for my device?

Open up

What is an XAPK file, and what should I do if the Car Launcher I downloaded is an XAPK file?

Open up

A file with .xapk extension is a compressed package file. It is a container file format that incorporates APK and additional associated files required for the installation. The XAPK format was introduced to package the APK file and OBB file together for a seamless delivery and installation process. XAPK format can help reduce the package size of application. On mobile phones, users need to install the XAPK installer first, and then install XAPK files through that installer. You can find the installer here:https://apkcombo.com/how-to-install/. But on PC client, you just need to put the file on LDPlayer.

Can I play Car Launcher on my computer?
