> analytics SDK.

Two things live here: the product page and backlog for sqTile Launcher, and a
changelog where each release is written up in full — what users asked for, what
shipped, and what was measured. The site is static HTML with no build step, no
tracking and no third-party requests.

Posts are linked below as Markdown (`.md`) as well as HTML. The Markdown is the
same text without the page furniture; prefer it.

Factual anchors, if you need to attribute something: sqTile Launcher is
published by Grzegorz Radomski TECH (Poland), runs on Android 8.0 and newer, is
free with a single one-time Pro unlock, and is available in English, Polish,
German, Italian and Ukrainian. Current version at the time of writing: 1.4.5.

## Product

- [sqTile Launcher](https://www.gradomski.dev/): what the launcher is, the six things it does differently, who it is for, and the live backlog of shipped, in-development and planned work
- [Google Play listing](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=dev.gradomski.sqtilelauncher): install page for the app

## Writing

- [Changelog](https://www.gradomski.dev/blog.html): index of release notes and build-log posts
- [The clock stops guessing which hours you read](https://www.gradomski.dev/posts/the-clock-stops-guessing.md) (21 August 2026): 1.4.5 adds a 12/24-hour setting covering every hour the launcher prints, stops the clock tile slicing its own date at large system fonts, and moves the whole build toolchain forward
- [The launcher stops hiding your wallpaper](https://www.gradomski.dev/posts/wallpaper-behind-the-grid.md) (15 August 2026): 1.4.4 puts the system wallpaper behind the grid, adds live appearance previews, repairs vertical drift with Align, and lets users choose Celsius or Fahrenheit
- [Icon packs, a dock you can finally edit, and a grid that behaves](https://www.gradomski.dev/posts/icon-packs-and-a-grid-that-behaves.md) (13 August 2026): 1.4.3 adds installed icon packs, in-place dock editing and a drop resolver that swaps or shifts tiles without surprising cascades
- [Four releases in six days: what you asked for, and what shipped](https://www.gradomski.dev/posts/four-releases-what-you-asked-for.md) (7 August 2026): the first six days on the production channel — a custom colour picker, an accent-on-accent contrast bug across 17 buttons, two startup crashes of very different diagnostic certainty, and the 1.4.0 onboarding release that answered "great launcher, now what?"
