A curated application directory for your intranet. Every tool your team uses, in one searchable tile grid. Managed by your intranet team through a standard SharePoint list - add or remove apps without raising an IT ticket.
The Problem
Every business runs on dozens of apps - HR systems, expense tools, ticketing, CRMs, finance portals. But there's no central directory. People bookmark URLs, ask colleagues for links, and new starters spend their first week hunting down tools that everyone else takes for granted.
The Solution
App Launcher gives everyone a single grid of tiles for every company tool. Searchable, filterable by category, managed by your intranet team through a simple SharePoint list. Add a new app? Add a row. No code changes, no deployments, no IT tickets.

An app directory your intranet team can maintain without raising tickets.
SharePoint List Backend
Every app is one row in a standard SharePoint list: name, URL, icon, category, description. Anyone with edit access can add, change or remove.
Instant Search
Type-as-you-search filters the tile grid in real time. Find any app in seconds, even with 50+ in the directory.
Category Filtering
Group apps by HR, Finance, IT, Operations or whatever fits your business. Users filter to their relevant tools in one click.
Custom Icons
Upload your own app icons or use built-in defaults. Visual distinction makes scanning faster and the directory feel branded.
Zero-Maintenance Updates
Tool replaced? URL changed? New system rolled out? Update the list, not the page. The launcher reflects changes instantly for everyone.
Responsive and Theme-Aware
Adapts to any screen size. Inherits your SharePoint site theme so it always looks branded and consistent.

App Launcher is a manually curated directory - your intranet team controls exactly which apps appear for everyone. MyApps (included in the Complete bundle) pulls per-user app assignments automatically from Microsoft MyApps. Use App Launcher for a company-wide toolbox, MyApps for personalised access. They work well side by side.
Yes. Deploy App Launcher to different sites with separate SharePoint lists as the data source - so HR's hub shows HR tools, Finance's hub shows Finance tools. Alternatively, use audience targeting on the SharePoint page section to show different instances to different security groups on the same page.
No hard limit. Search and category filtering mean directories with 100+ apps stay usable. For very large directories, good category structure becomes especially important.
Anyone you grant edit permissions to on the underlying SharePoint list. That's typically your intranet team, IT ops or comms team. The web part honours standard SharePoint permissions - so you can keep the directory curated without bottlenecking through a single person.
Yes. When your SharePoint page is embedded as a tab in Teams, App Launcher renders correctly and tiles open in the user's browser. Works on mobile Teams too.
