Car Launcher APK is a special Android launcher specifically designed for use in cars. It provides a safe, simple, and intelligent dashboard experience while driving. You can use it not only on Android car stereos but also on smartphones, tablets, and laptops with the Android operating system. Thanks to the large buttons and clear layout, all the essential functions - navigation, music, speed, and system information - are easily accessible.
Car Launcher acts as a comprehensive driving assistant. The developers have added features that go beyond simple shortcuts. For example, it has a built-in trip computer that records your routes over different periods of time. As long as you allow background GPS access, speed, trip details, performance statistics, and more are displayed in real time. This transforms your Android device into a mini smart dashboard, just like in a modern car.
How Car Launcher Works
After installation, you can set Car Launcher as your default home screen. Pressing the home button will automatically open the launcher - especially convenient for Android car stereos. The home screen transforms into a customizable dashboard where you can add as many apps as you like, organize them into folders, and customize the layout to your liking. The launcher also offers real-time speed display, distance measurement, and easy access to all installed apps via a clear menu.
