“Fairphone’s mission is to bring a fair smartphone to the market – one designed and produced with minimal harm to people and planet.” The device itself holds an OS based on the Android OSP code provided by Google and updated by Mediatek. The Fairphone project has a dedicated homelauncher with some very specific characteristics, an App Launcher Widget, Peace of Mind Widget, Lock screen/Mood Changer, custom Updater and other modifications.
