IMO the whole point of KISS is to _not_ have desktops and access all of your apps via search. If I want to open my Hacker News app, I open the search, press "h" and click the first app. All apps I use frequently naturally float to the top of my history list and can be accessed with 1, or at most 2 characters in search.

Where this really shines is chat apps -- all of your chats get their own "activities" which can be searched as well, so if I want to open Discord DMs for someone, I can search their username and one of the options is the Discord DM activity for them.

Yes, this is a couple more taps than having desktops but it's 100% dynamic (never have to manage layout) and almost eliminates the chance of getting distracted when opening my home screen.

To add on to this, KISS also sorts apps/activities based on how frequently you select them, so it "learns" what you use most commonly. For example, if I type "f", the first app that comes up is F-Droid, because that's the app that matches that I use most frequently.
