For wallpaper in Application and system without wallpaper support

Thanks for making this great app. I wanna change my random local brand's random launcher so it will be very helpful/easy for us to install this launcher on tv.

Literally I have zero knowledge in android studio and don't wanna install it on my slow and storage full laptop. Please consider to release every version in apk format for beginner. Thank you..

Hi

Here are some suggestions I could think of that would make it the best tv launcher:

1. A separate row(s) under the current one for all non-leanback apps.
   An option to enable/Disable this row.
   The top row is then only used for leanback apps.
2. A setting to split the amount of apps shown per row.
   Eg. You have 20 leanback apps installed and want to split them into 2 rows to show everything on the screen and not scroll right all the time to see all the apps.
3. An option to give a heading for each row eg. Apps, Streaming, Games and an option to show/hide the heading for each row and be able to move apps to different rows.
4. Hide all system partition apps by default like webview, tv remote etc. even in a non-leanback row.
   An option in Settings to perhaps enable/show them again if needed.
5. Hide the tv-launcher banner icon and perhaps add it's own settings icon to the top next to the settings icon that opens Android's Settings.
6. Allow to re-order app icons(already suggested)
7. Perhaps a sort setting to arrange apps by app name(abc, zyx).
8. An option for the default Youtube player eg. stock Youtube app, SmartTubeNext etc. if you have channels for both Youtube and SmartTubeNext apps to use one by default to open all Youtube videos on the homescreen.
9. Wallpaper support. Some tv launchers support it like https://github.com/tsynik/LeanbackLauncher or https://app.emotn.com/ui/ so there might be a way.
10. Some Weather widget support with temperature and a picture display.
11. Setting to round app banner corners more as a %.
12. A setting to export/import the saved app placements in the rows if you need to uninstall the launcher and install it again for easy setup.
13. An option to hide individual apps or hide apps in a vault, only show them if a 4 digit pin is entered.
14. Perhaps some small display or widget that can be enabled/disabled to show the free, used and total memory on a device.
    CPU speed too but this might be difficult. Kodi has some code to display the memory, CPU usage, perhaps there is some code that can help.

Hi,

I've never worked on xml layouts before this, please excuse me r nub.

I first tried the Layout Inspector, launching Android Studio nearly kernel panicked my hardware. lol

So I ended up just manually setting the RecyclerView height to 440dp:

Maybe Stacks? With all the material cards it makes sense ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

Hi

Thank you very much for your work.

I fully understand #8
Please also consider a F-Droid integration. F-Droid is a project we trust.

Fully understand it's still super early. Just wanted to shoot a few thoughts after finally trying it out.

First off, congratulations!! You are the only one that has re-created the channels functionality in a third-party launcher. Pretty incredible! Thank you for this.

Speaking of this feature. Will it be possible to enable/disable on a per-app basis? I had to uninstall the Nvidia GameStream app because it flooded my homescreen with a lot of rows, and even more games.

Jellyfin showing up in the channel of Watch Next is great. Would love to perhaps break up TV/Film into their own rows if possible down the road. And hopefully we can transfer the watch duration indicator over the posters like in Jellyfin.

Right now it was a bit sluggish scrolling on my Shield, and I suspect it's from loading all the channels. (e.g. Jellyfin Media channel where it shows the TV/Show/Collections seems redundant and I'd want to turn it off).

And finally I know hiding apps is on your list of things to do. Re-arranging the order of the visible ones too if possible please.

Keep up the great work!

Well, the title says everything. There are many great custom launchers out there but the only way holding me back from switching to them is the lack of channels which is my most favorite feature. I am curious if it could perhaps be possible to somehow grant this permission to an app via ADB or something like that. Or perhaps maybe some AndroidTVs are possible to root? Or maybe you could somehow install a non-system app as a system app via ADB? Idk.

It would be great to have a recent apps screen for the last 10-15 apps.
Perhaps full screenshots like on a phone or small icons like LG WebOS recent apps.

When I open the app it closes quickly I'm using Android 7.1.2 MBOX

Please make the apk available for testing
