Launchpad
Launchpad is the Evolve home page: your core apps, the rest of the apps installed for this membership, and a route into the App Store.

Launchpad is /en — the page you land on after signing in. It lists the apps installed for the Account and role you are currently using, and nothing else.
The navbar link is labelled Launchpad.
What is on the page
Core apps is the first heading. It holds up to three fixed apps, and only those installed for you: AI Studio, Drive and Spaces.
More apps follows, with the rest of your installed apps as a grid of tiles. The grid itself has no heading of its own.
Admin apps appears inside that section, above a divider, when you hold an administrator role and at least one of your installed apps is an administration app.
Under the grid a line counts what you have, for example You've installed 7 of 24 available apps, next to a Manage apps link that opens the App Store.
Searching
A search box appears above the grid once you have two or more apps outside the core three. It is labelled Search in apps and matches on the app's name and description. When nothing matches, the grid shows No applications match your search and Try another application name.
Pinning apps to the navbar
- Select Customize to the right of the Core apps heading.
- Pin badges appear on every tile. Select one to pin or unpin that app.
- Use Show pinned apps in main navigation to control whether pinned apps also appear in the navbar.
- Select Done to keep the changes, or Cancel to discard them.
Pinned apps move to the front of the grid.
Tiles you cannot open
A tile that is dimmed and does not respond is installed but not currently openable — the app's own route is not available to you. A screen reader announces it as, for example, Spaces is not available. See An app is missing.
When you have no apps yet
The page shows Get started with apps, the count line, and Manage apps. Below that, apps you can install are listed as rows; a row with no description of its own reads Available in App Store, and each row has an Install button.
What Launchpad does not show
Launchpad is scoped to one membership. It carries no greeting, no Account switcher and no quick-action shortcuts. To change Account, use the avatar menu; see Switch between Accounts.
