MustardOS 2606.0 Andromeda

In Progress

Pronunciation

/ænˈdrɒmɪdə/

Not available yet!

This release is still in development, check back soon for download links!

Additional Information

Themes are now stored as open folders instead of compressed archives (previously extracted to the active folder). This enables faster theme switching, alternate theme changes, and restores random theme selection on device start. Existing .muxthm theme files in MUOS/theme must be extracted manually.
