Built in KWGT. One evening. Still the same phone.

Meet your new phone. You're holding it.

Pick a look Start unboxing

Scroll to unbox.

Wipe the slate, not the phone. Nothing deleted. Nothing to log into again.

Every new phone starts empty. Yours can too, minus the forty logins. Clear the screen, keep the wallpaper, decide what earns a spot.

Still your apps. Still your photos. Still your phone.

One app. A whole new phone. It's called a launcher. Swap it.

A launcher draws your home screen. Swap it and the grid, gestures and drawer follow. The other phone gets one for life. You get 74.

  • List. Feels like a different phone. Niagara
  • Grid. Feels like yours, tidied. Lawnchair
  • Widgets. Feels like next year's phone. Kvaesitso
Swap your launcher

New icons, new phone. Mono on Monday. Colour by Friday.

An icon pack reskins every app at once, and the wallpaper sets the mood. Each pack is a new phone. No box, no queue, no trade-in.

  • Mono. The quiet new phone.
  • Colour. The loud new phone.
  • Lines. The barely-there phone.
Theme your icons

Draw your own widgets. No phone ships with that.

A widget is a live piece of an app on your screen. With KWGT, a widget maker, you draw yours to the pixel. Nobody else has that one.

See widget setups

Replace what came in the box. All of it. Open or closed, your pick.

A new phone comes with the apps its maker chose. This one comes with the apps you chose. Pick one, set it as default, done.
