What's New

Rewrite of the base layout with the following improvements:
More flexible gesture options: the gestures for search and widgets can now be configured freely
All gestures are now handled the same way, so secondary gestures (screen off, notifications, launch app, etc) should feel more natural now
The "hidden" search bar style is now actually hidden and no longer takes space on screen
Added support for predictive back animations
More theming options
we already had color schemes, but now there are also shape schemes, typography schemes and transparency schemes to give more control over the look and feel of the launcher
Important
: the theme file format has been changed. For now, backward compatibility has been maintained, so you can still import the old format, but this might change in the future. If you have published a theme somewhere, you are adviced you to re-export it and update it for the new format
Added a new Material 3 high contrast theme
The card border option has been removed
The progress bar in the music widget is no longer interactive by default. An option has been added to restore the old behavior.
Added an analog clock variant that has tick marks (thanks to
@shtrophic
)

Frequently Asked Questions about Kvaesitso (github version) APK

This variant is built for devices that report `arm64-v8a, armeabi-v7a, x86, x86_64` as their primary ABI. If your device's CPU matches, this is the smallest, fastest version to install.

Yes — the APK's signature has been cryptographically verified against the publisher's signing key. The SHA-256 hash is shown in the File Information panel so you can independently confirm the file matches the original release.

Android 26 (API level 36) or newer. Older devices will refuse the install.

Install a free app like 'CPU-Z' or 'Droid Hardware Info' from the Play Store and look at the ABI / Instruction Set row. Most phones made after 2017 are arm64-v8a; if in doubt, download the universal variant.

All variants are functionally identical — same features, same version. They differ only in which CPU architectures the native code is compiled for, and (sometimes) which screen densities the included graphics target. Pick the one that matches your device for the smallest install size, or pick 'Universal' if you're unsure.
