It’s the Orbit clock in the Kvaesitso launcher (one of the stock options). And yes, the icon pack is Arcticons, although I also use Alembicons to create icons for apps that aren’t currently supported by Arcticons.

I do something similar on my phones. The screen turns on to a blank page with just the time and alarm/media playback information.

To access my applications I swipe left. I’ve made the icons monochrome and removed their names so I rely on search to find and open the app I want. This makes app launching less of an addictive reflex and more of a conscious decision each time.

The earlier flips were even better in this respect because the outer screen was so small it basically only functioned as a clock and notification panel. It’s kind of a shame that style hasn’t been retained by at least one manufacturer.

It’s no different to any other screen in that respect. Just stop dropping your phone, or if you really can’t do that use a case and a screen protector.
