What is a Home App. A Home App, or sometimes called a “Launcher” is the main UI (User’s Interface) displayed after hitting the Home button. This UI should let you access all of the other features on your Android Device. The reason to change to a new Home App depends on an individuals customization preference on how they would like their device to function and look.
The following options are supported:
Clear Default: This action will take you to the the Installed App details; which will allow you to select “Clear Defaults”. Then hit the back button to get back to THM.
Set Default: This action will bring up a dialog to select an installed Home App and set it as the default.
Get Home: This action will bring up a dialog to select Home Apps that are on the Android Market. By making a selection it will take you to the Home App selected on the Android Market. This way it makes it easy for you to try out some different Home Apps.
Select Home App: By pressing on any given installed Home App it will immediately launch that home app.
Long Press Home App: By long pressing on any given installed Home App it will immediately take you to that Home App Installed App Details.

Especially if you like Trying All kinds of different Launchers, Almost Every Launcher in the Play Store including some you've probably never heard of are, just a click away. No other Home Switcher has that. Twisted Home is Simpley the Best at what it does, IF you're Commenting Negatively, DONT, just b/c your POS device is Screwed or Needs FDR doesn't mean anything is wrong with this Awesome App, (Buy a Note 4) No, I dont know the Dev, Nor do I recieve anything for leaving this Feedback. Just being Honest.

Samsung Galaxy Note 3 - I'm frequently trying new launchers and I love playing with many launchers. I was having difficulty shutting off old launchersand keeping my memory free, and this app works great for launcher management. I love this app and I have no problems.
