Customization

Personalize Tree Launcher with themes, colors, fonts, icon packs, backgrounds, and headers.


Themes

Tree Launcher supports light and dark themes:

  1. Go to SettingsAppearanceTheme Mode
  2. Choose Light or Dark

For a ready-made look, go to SettingsAppearanceTheme Presets and pick a preset. A preset sets your wallpaper, colors, and other appearance settings in one tap; you can fine-tune any of them afterwards.

Accent Colors

Choose the accent color that appears throughout the app:

  1. Go to SettingsAppearanceAccent Color
  2. Pick a swatch from the palette

The accent color picker

The accent color is used for highlights, active states, and interactive elements across the app.

Backgrounds

Global Background

Tree Launcher draws your pages over your device wallpaper, so the global background is the wallpaper itself:

  1. Go to SettingsAppearanceBackground
  2. Choose a solid color, or pick an image as your wallpaper

Per-Page Background Color

Give an individual page its own background color:

  1. Open the page and enter Edit Mode
  2. With no item focused, tap Background in the edit toolbar
  3. Choose a color for that page

Page backgrounds are colors only — images are set globally through the wallpaper.

Background Overlay

A background overlay is a tint layer placed on top of your wallpaper. Use it to lighten, darken, or color-shift the background so your page content stays easy to read.

  1. Go to SettingsAppearanceBackground Overlay
  2. Pick an overlay color and adjust its strength with the opacity slider

The overlay applies to every page. It works in tandem with an image wallpaper — for example, darkening a bright photo so light text stays legible, or adding a subtle color wash to match your theme.

Icons

App Icon Packs

App icons come from your device by default, or from any icon pack installed from the Play Store:

  1. Go to SettingsAppearanceApps Icon Pack
  2. Choose System Icons or one of your installed icon packs

Adaptive Icons

Give app icons a uniform shape and background:

  • Adaptive Icons (SettingsAppearanceAdaptive Icons) — choose None, Circle, Squircle, Rounded Square, or System to follow your device's shape
  • Icon Background — with adaptive icons on, pick a background color to draw a monochrome icon over a tile of that color, or leave it empty to keep each app's own background

Custom Item Icons

You can also override icons on individual items:

  1. Focus an item in Edit Mode
  2. Open item options
  3. Tap Icon
  4. Choose an icon from System Icons, Item Type Icons, Material Icons, or any installed icon pack

Choosing an icon pack

Per-Item Colors

Color individual items for visual organization:

  1. Focus an item in Edit Mode
  2. Open item options
  3. Tap Color
  4. Choose a background color for that item

This is great for color-coding categories, priorities, or simply making key items stand out.

Home Header

The home page has a customizable header area. All of its settings live in one sheet: go to SettingsHome ScreenHome Header, make your changes, and tap Save.

Clock Display

By default, the header shows a clock. Use the Clock row to choose 12hr Clock (with AM/PM), 12hr Clock (no AM/PM), or 24hr Clock, and the Show date switch to show or hide the date.

Header Height

Choose how much of the screen the header takes up: - Compact (25%) - Standard (the default) - Tall (50%) - Full Screen (100%)

Layout and Text

The same sheet also lets you set the header's vertical and horizontal alignment, choose a separate header Font, adjust the Title size and Subtitle size (S / M / L / XL), and turn on Header-only mode, which hides the list until you scroll the header up.

Widget Stack Header (Pro)

Turn on the Widget Stack header switch to replace the clock with a scrollable stack of Android widgets. See Pro Features.

Weather on Header (Pro)

Display current weather information in the home header. See Weather.

Font Selection (Pro)

Choose from 97 font families to customize the look of all text in Tree Launcher. See Pro Features.

Font Size

Adjust the text size across the app — Small, Medium, or Large — in SettingsAppearanceFont Size. This is free for everyone, and works together with your device's system font size.

Icon Size (Pro)

Adjust the icon size across the app — Small, Medium, or Large. Free users are locked to Medium. See Pro Features.
