How to Access Easy Mode on HTC One M9

Are you new to the Android smartphone world? Then, you must be confused by your HTC One M9 device. HTC One M9’s Sense 7 BlinkFeed home launcher is a real joy and HTC fans waited it for quite a long time.

In fact, Xpirit from the XDA developers has successfully managed to port the Sense 6 and Sense 7 based BlinkFeed launcher with its most important plugins and widgets to work on all Android devices running Android KitKat or Lollipop, so everyone can get the HTC One M9’s home launcher and widgets on any other Android device, but this is not making your situation any easier. I totally understand your confusion and if you can’t handle everything that the Sense 7 launcher has for you, then the Easy Mode is the ideal choice for you.
