Your phone, your way.

IVY is being built around choice: how it looks, how it feels and how it behaves, down to the small stuff. This is what it is aiming for. None of it is released yet.

If you can see it, you can change it Planned

The goal: status bar, quick settings, lockscreen, navigation, animations and more, all in one place.

10 to 15

Android versions Planned

The target range. Android 16 comes later, once it is stable.

Looks Planned

Themes, accent colors, icon shapes, fonts and clock styles.

Feel Planned

Gestures, buttons, haptics and animation speed, tuned the way you like.

Behavior Planned

Per-app settings, battery and performance profiles, and extra controls.

Updates that keep your data Planned

The aim: update over the air like any Android phone and keep your apps and data, even across a new Android version. Not tested yet.

Open source, all of it Planned

The plan is to publish device trees, kernel and manifests. Read it, fork it, send a patch.

Quick answers

Which Android versions?

The target is Android 10 to 15. An Android 16 GSI may follow once it is stable.

Does it include Google apps?

IVY is planned as plain AOSP, without Google apps. You would flash a GApps package yourself.

Will it erase my data?

The first install does, because the bootloader has to be unlocked. Later updates are designed to keep your apps and data, even across Android versions. That is a goal, not yet tested.

Will my phone run the GSI?

It should, if it supports Project Treble. You would pick the A/B or A-only image. No Treble? A device build would be needed instead.
