# Apple / iPhone ### **You’re screwed!** iOS doesn’t allow third-party launchers any chance to take over the home screen, and it doesn’t offer any functionality similar to what third-party launchers provide. Additionally, the system does not provide an API to implement any of the features you’d expect from a launcher. Apple has designed their operating system to only support their own interface, leaving little room for the kind of freedom and flexibility that Android users enjoy. So, if you are looking for a customizable experience, remember that on Apple, you’re stuck with what comes out of the box. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
