PaxOS 8

Logo of the paxo project

PaxOS 8 is the latest version of PaxOS, a lightweight operating system for PaxoPhones.

what's new ?

It brings a very reliable event system allowing a very fluid use of the device. Its new graphic module adds new, more aesthetic widgets in a precise theme designed on figma!

The homepage features 8 simplistic apps but none too many:

  • The phone app for making calls
  • The message app, to send bubble messages to contacts
  • The contacts app, which allows you to add and delete contacts that can be used in other applications
  • The Calculator
  • The Clock, which will allows you to program alarms and launch stopwatches and timers
  • The Map to calculate its GPS coordinates
  • The Snake
  • The game 2048

Many improvements are coming soon.

Feel free to suggest contributions.
