From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Can use it as a launcher also I guess. Termux Expert Launcher.
how
Oops, sorry. 😬
TEL
If one decides to mess with it, some notes. Last release was awhile back. I don't use Android 12/13 so no idea how well it works there.
Tel and Tel:API have same package names as Termux and Termux:API. Meaning there should be no trace of Termux on system before trying.
Not really battery friendly when using the default status info up top.
Powerful command line environment. Recommend that one is familiar / comfortable with the CLI.
