MinimalLauncher is a minimal launcher app with only the app name lined up.
There are many kinds of launcher applications, but most of them display the icon of each application and perform startup by tapping it.
In those launcher apps, the screen is quickly filled with icons when you register an app.
Therefore, scrolling becomes necessary, and I was personally concerned that I might not be able to start an application immediately.
Therefore, I thought it would be nice if there was a launcher application that could display a large number of applications on a single screen by eliminating icons and arranging only application names, and created MinimalLauncher.
The number of apps can be increased or decreased depending on the device screen size, font size of the app name, and margin settings, but about 100 apps can be displayed on a single screen.
*Before removing the limit with in-app purchases, the number of registered applications is limited to 20.
Please be aware of this.
After confirming the usability, you can register apps without restrictions by making in-app purchases.
*This app does not have a function to automatically set a URL scheme when an app is selected.
Please understand this.
If you use the Apple genuine "Shortcuts" app, you can launch apps that do not have or do not know the URL scheme.
Please refer to the following URL for details.

*I have confirmed a problem that an alert about pasting appears every time when using "_CLIP_" or "_ENCCLIP_" on iOS 16 or later.
This issue can be avoided by updating to iOS16.1 or later and making the following settings from the Settings app.
(1) Select "MinimalLauncher" in the Settings app and select "Paste from Other Apps".
(2) Change the setting to "Allow".
*Notification about pasting will appear even after changing to "Allow". Due to the limitation of iOS, you cannot turn off this notification.
