MojoLauncher review
A free, open-source Android launcher for Java Edition with mod-loader and modpack support.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
MojoLauncher is an open-source Android launcher for Minecraft: Java Edition, aimed at players who want to run the game on Android and manage different game versions or modded setups. Its focus is specific: it brings Java Edition to Android rather than serving as a cross-platform launcher. The project is based on PojavLauncher, and the current Google Play listing uses the name MJLauncher while the repository and official website retain MojoLauncher. Its source code is distributed under the GNU LGPLv3 license.
Version and mod support are central to the product. MojoLauncher supports a broad range of Minecraft versions and the Forge and Fabric mod loaders; loader components can be installed through JAR-based installers. It also imports local Modrinth MRPACK and CurseForge ZIP modpacks, which gives players a route to bring in packs they already have. These are file imports, not a stated direct catalog browsing feature, so players looking for a launcher centered on browsing and managing online modpacks may prefer a different fit. Multiple rendering engines, including Vulkan-related functionality, add flexibility for rendering choices, and the launcher automatically installs appropriate LWJGL versions for game versions.
The free, open-source model suits Android players who want Java Edition, mod-loader support, and local modpack imports without a paid plan. Its platform scope is also its clearest boundary: people who need a launcher for desktop or other platforms should look elsewhere. MojoLauncher is most relevant to Android users comfortable working with version and modpack files; players seeking a broader, explicitly described management suite have less reason to choose it.

- Runs Minecraft: Java Edition across a broad range of versions on Android.
- Supports Forge and Fabric, with loader components installed through JAR installers.
- Imports local Modrinth MRPACK and CurseForge ZIP modpacks.
- Where it doesn't
- Available on Android, so it does not cover other platforms.

- Mod-loader installation relies on JAR-based installers.
