Get Ubuntu Phone Experience Without an Ubuntu Phone

If you’re keen to learn what the Ubuntu phone experience is all about but are still not sold in on buying an Ubuntu phone, Ubuntu Phone Experience is the app you need.

Fresh Experience

If you’re an Android user and would like to have a different user experience on your phone, try Ubuntu Phone Experience. This is not yet another launcher that effects only skin-level changes. This app revamps the entire OS so that you have a complete feel of Ubuntu on your Android device. People who are into rooting devices would find this app quite exciting and exploratory. Ubuntu is all about swipes and gestures. You can swipe across your device to finger-lift your favourite apps. In other words, you can launch apps at will, from anywhere on your device. There are sidebar themes as well.

Downloading the App

The app mimics almost all features of the Ubuntu OS. The app was originally available on the official Android store, but it was later brought down for reasons unclear. It’s believed Google may have got a bit wary of the potential of Ubuntu and its users making the switch to Ubuntu hardware. That said, the app can still be downloaded onto your Android device via an external link. It works on almost all Android devices and ROMs. The app experience would stay rich and immersive, irrespective of the device you use it on.
