Home++ is a home screen replacement. The default Home++ screen places a clock at the top of the screen with a customizable scrolling “Power Strip” on the bottom.
The “Power Strip” is customizable to add icons for:
Phone
Favorite contacts
Search
Voice command
Browser
Application drawer
Bookmarks list
Task list
Notification
Screen Switcher
Home++ allows up to 7 different screens and endless scrolling of the screens. If you’re on screen 7, the next screen can scroll to screen 1. There’s also a screen switcher where you can choose which screen to display.
Home++ supports 3rd party widgets
Home ++ is a quality replacement for the default home screen. The added screens allows for more widgets, folders, apps, and files to be displayed. The Power Strip allows for fast access to basic functions. Home++ may take some time to get used to, but once you get used to it, you may really like it.
This version of Home ++ like they say, is a beta version, so there are some bugs that are still being worked out. Home++ can be a little slower than the default home screen and there are more force closes than what I would like. Though they seem to be actively fixing the bugs and I’ve seen less issues recently.
