    I LOVED Windows Phone, and was DEVASTATED when it got discontinued. As a result, for the past 5 years, I’ve slowly trudged along, trying to reach a position where I can make my Android phone look and (kinda) function like my old Lumia 525.

    After years of research, Square Home Launcher. The dev is awesome, and the one-time fee isn’t that bad.

    Here’s how my screen looks:

      Yeah, high-five for SquareHome launcher. I never used a Windows Phone, but SHL caught my eye and it’s amazing. Props for the cat photo on the home screen.

        Ah man you’re lucky you didn’t use a Windows Phone. You’d be crying yourself to sleep knowing Mobile OSes reached perfection and then it was cancelled 😭.

        SHL is extremely powerful and very intuitive. Especially as a WP user.

        Also, I waited till the live tile updated to Simba’s photo. No meow, No post 🤌🏼🙌🏼.

          I still have a Lumia 1520 and 1020 because I can’t get rid of them. For whatever reason, I never got on board with SHL though. I think I found it too long after I had accepted that Windows Phone was gone…

            Ah man.

            You could maybe sell them online?

            Also,

            I think I found it too long after I had accepted that Windows Phone was gone…

            saddest sentence ever 😭

              Sorry my wording was ambiguous. I meant I don’t want to get rid of them. I still have an old Palm Pre and Pixi around somewhere too. And an HP Touchpad and Zune…

              I’m not nostalgic for much, but I love my old underdog tech. Lol

                Nice.

                Bruh listen, I’ve never felt physical pain when nostalgic about anything apart from the ending of Windows Phone. I get your sentiment 😂.

      That is a great app and does a perfect job of recreating Windows phone.

      Nice setup. Very informative.
