Description
A fast, minimal home launcher for Android TV and TV boxes. It replaces the stock launcher with a simple app grid, a lightweight dark interface, and low RAM usage.
Features:
* Up to 14 apps on the home screen plus a permanent tile for adding apps
* App search and filter chips (All / Selected / Shortcuts) when picking apps
* Long-press context menu: Open, Move Left, Move Right, App Info, Remove
* Optional pinned shortcuts (e.g. from Activity Launcher)
* Optional cycling online wallpapers (Wallhaven, Bing, Picsum, Reddit), custom image URLs, and a dim overlay - solid dark background by default
* Optional Home key override via the accessibility service for devices that lock the default launcher (off by default)
* Optional stock launcher RAM optimization (off by default)
The build on F-Droid does not include the self-update feature; updates are delivered through F-Droid.
What’s new (1.6.2)
* F-Droid build no longer includes the in-app updater: WorkManager and its permissions (WAKE_LOCK, ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE, RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED, FOREGROUND_SERVICE) are gone
* Updater code (GitHub auto-update, APK install prompt) is only compiled into the GitHub build
* F-Droid screenshots moved to the tvScreenshots fastlane directory
