About Daydream Launcher

Ever wanted to launch that fancy Daydream screensaver easier? In your Android 4.2+ device's settings, you are only given the options to launch Daydream while docked or while charging.
Now, there is an easier way simply to launch Daydream, right from your home screen, no matter if you are docked, charging, or neither. Just press the icon, and Daydream will start.

I have heard a few people ask for such a shortcut, so I made this; if you have any suggestions or problems to report, please email me. Also, this is ad-free and requires no permissions.

What are users saying about Daydream Launcher

Z70%
by Z####:

Since there is no adequate info or description, I give 2 stars because it does not even stay on. No explanation given. Does work, but screen turns off anyway so what's the point? Is this really a preview for daydreams??

B70%
by B####:

Refuses to open, crashes everytime on my Galaxy Note 3, Note 4, or Samsung Tablet. Maybe the developer should note in Play Store that this app is not compatible with Samsung devices? Jus a thought.

Thanks for the wonderfully simple way to launch Daydream !! Works great. Begs the question: "Why wasn't an icon originally included with the app ?"

Z70%
by Z####:

R70%
by R####:

Goes into screensaver mode alright.. Just shows me this time & nothing else - no jelly beans.. Does Android version over 4.2 matter?

N70%
by N####:

Started using daydream recently, but with the way my phone is set up, I have to turn it on manually. Thanks for making this. Every now and then, I need an app that "does that one thing (with out any pointless fluff)" and it doesn't exist. But, for once, it does. Thanks again

W70%
by W####:

This works great on Android TV!

U70%
by U####:

This app works beautifully and as designed. Android only allows daydreams to run in the same orientation as the last app (the home screen is fixed portrait). To fix that, I downloaded Screen Rotation Control which force rotates the home screen and works while daydreaming regardless of the last app orientation.

U70%
by U####:

Same as above. :-) good idea if it works

U70%

Not sure why but, definitively not working on my S5

Using a Samsung Galaxy S5, doesnt start, always gives out the error: "Unfortunaly, Daydream Launcher has stopped". Using Go Launcher EX. 2 Stars for the idea.

V70%
by V####:

This solved my problem with wanting to start daydream at my desk without having to plug it in every time. I used an NFC tag. I'm currently using the Quotes Daydream. This would've been a five except it always launches the daydream in Portrait mode regardless or orientation. Daydream itself will change. Why does this app force portrait?? Great app other than that.

Z70%
by Z####:

The daydream launcher seems to force closes everytime I try to start it. Have disabled desk home and enabled daydream>Google Currents and Daydream does not start when I start this app. Pressing 'Start Now' on Daydream Settings work. On Samsung galaxy S3(GT-I9300) 4.2.2 XXFUME7

Z70%
by Z####:

Works 80% of the time. Sometimes it just won't trigger. This is on note 2. Those with rotation problems means is most likely your launcher doesn't support landscape. Root and try xgel.

Z70%
by Z####:

Would be great idea_ but not working (crash at start each time)_ Such a pity! __Brian get on the move!

D70%
by D####:

The only grievance I have with this app is that it still allows the screen to time out on the Motorola mini.

K70%

Z70%

Need option to disable auto screen sleeping and touch screen detection

Y70%
by Y####:

Perfect.

Z70%
by Z####:

I use it with Locale to activate Daydreams when I'm at my desk at work, but not when the phone's charging on my bedside at night (when I want the screen off and dark). Perfect.

D70%
by D####:

The screen seems to stay in whatever state it was in, when launching, which for the most part is portrait.

by B####:

I love it. And a notification in the status bar would be awesome. A little rainbow would look cute.
