BumpDesk 1.52.26

BumpDesk is an experimental 3D Android launcher inspired by BumpTop. Apps, widgets, and notes behave like physical objects on a desk — you can move them, stack them into piles, pin them to walls, and interact with them in a 3D room (or flat-floor / infinite desktop modes).

Advanced beta — actively developed; desktop layouts persist across reboots via Room.

Highlights

• Physics-based floor and wall workspace
• Smart piles, folders, and All Apps drawer
• 3D widgets and Recents with task previews (where supported)
• Material 3 settings, themes, and procedural shaders
• Radial menus with launch modes (fullscreen, freeform, pinned)

Install

1. Download app-release.apk below (signed; recommended for everyday use).
2. Install on a device running Android 12L+ (API 32+) with OpenGL ES 2.0.
3. Set BumpDesk as your home app when prompted, or launch from the app drawer.
4. Complete the onboarding wizard.

adb install -r app-release.apk

Automatic updates (Obtainium)

Install Obtainium, add GitHub repo electrikjesus/BumpDesk, filter releases to app-release.apk, and it will track new v* tags from this page. See docs/distribution.md.

Recommended setup (ADB)

Enable usage stats (required for Recents):

adb shell appops set com.bass.bumpdesk GET_USAGE_STATS allow

Wallpaper floor (Flat floor mode, Android 13+ / Waydroid):

1. Toggle Use system wallpaper as floor in Settings and allow Photos and videos when prompted (or grant via adb).
2. For the live system wallpaper (not Pick Image), also grant legacy Storage — sideloaded apps cannot enable this from App Settings on Android 13–14:

adb shell pm grant com.bass.bumpdesk android.permission.READ_MEDIA_IMAGES
adb shell pm grant com.bass.bumpdesk android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE

Optional — freeform window launches:

adb shell settings put global enable_freeform_support 1
adb shell settings put global force_resizable_activities 1

Optional — live task snapshots in Recents (root/AOSP):

adb shell pm grant com.bass.bumpdesk android.permission.REAL_GET_TASKS

Debug wallpaper loading:

adb logcat -s "BumpDesk:Wallpaper"

BumpDesk 1.52.22

BumpDesk is an experimental 3D Android launcher inspired by BumpTop. Apps, widgets, and notes behave like physical objects on a desk — you can move them, stack them into piles, pin them to walls, and interact with them in a 3D room (or flat-floor / infinite desktop modes).

Advanced beta — actively developed; desktop layouts persist across reboots via Room.

Highlights

• Physics-based floor and wall workspace
• Smart piles, folders, and All Apps drawer
• 3D widgets and Recents with task previews (where supported)
• Material 3 settings, themes, and procedural shaders
• Radial menus with launch modes (fullscreen, freeform, pinned)

Install

1. Download app-release.apk below (signed; recommended for everyday use).
2. Install on a device running Android 12L+ (API 32+) with OpenGL ES 2.0.
3. Set BumpDesk as your home app when prompted, or launch from the app drawer.
4. Complete the onboarding wizard.

adb install -r app-release.apk

Recommended setup (ADB)

Enable usage stats (required for Recents):

adb shell appops set com.bass.bumpdesk GET_USAGE_STATS allow

Optional — freeform window launches:

adb shell settings put global enable_freeform_support 1
adb shell settings put global force_resizable_activities 1
