In a Wednesday announcement, Nokia's technologies group unveiled its first project - the limited release of an Android launcher - since the company's acquisition by Microsoft.

The Android launcher - currently in pre-beta testing - has been termed Z Launcher; and will essentially enable the users of Android devices to manage all the apps on their devices or even find them easily.

According to the announcement made by Nokia, the new Z Launcher has been primarily designed to help Android users minimize the clutter and random app shortcuts on their home screen; thereby facilitating them in locating the exact apps and contacts they require, when they need them.

Nokia also revealed that the Z Launcher for Android will be capable of learning the users' habits, along with other indicators like location, time of day, and what activity they are involved in. As such, Z Launcher will evolve constantly and customize itself to better fit the users' needs.

Though Nokia has revealed that the Z Launcher for Android is presently in "pre-beta" or in "limited number of downloads," the company has not specified how many downloads of the launcher will be allowed.
