Pixel at heart. Yours by design.
An open-source Android ROM with Pixel polish, deep customization and monthly security patches.
Note
Current focus: Android 17 (cnb). New features, fixes and device bring-up land there first. Android 16 (bka) and Android 15 (vic) stay maintained with a stability-focused cadence.
- Pixel, everywhere: Pixel wallpapers, lockscreen clocks, boot animations and sound effects on non-Pixel devices
- Evolver: our in-house settings app, with hundreds of tweaks for colors, fonts, status bar, lockscreen, per-app volume, icon packs and more
- Now Playing with lyrics: song recognition and lyrics on the lockscreen, even on non-Pixel hardware
- Play Integrity ready: built-in spoofing support, configurable from Evolver
- Always current: monthly Android security patches and fast rebases
- Fully open source: every line is public. Audit it, fork it, learn from it
