02 What it does
Only what you choose. Nothing else.
TitanX Minimal replaces your home screen with a quiet, black space showing only the apps you choose, as clean names or as a grid of icons in black & white or colour. Swipe up for every app, ordered by an on-device smart order that learns what you're likely to open next. Healthy screen time adds a short pause before social media and gentle check-ins, with one switch and three levels. A matching lock screen shows the clock, next alarm and notification icons, with an optional maze or snake game whose AI learns as it plays. Everything runs on your phone: nothing is collected or sent anywhere.
