App Description
Launch any app on your Android TV or Google TV, including sideloaded phone apps!
Your TV's home screen only shows apps made for TV. Apps you sideloaded, and phone apps that were never adapted for TV, can be installed but remain hidden: there's no way to open them.
Sideload Launcher shows every app on your TV in one simple grid, TV and phone apps alike, and you can open any of them with your remote.
Features:
• Every installed app, including sideloaded and phone-only apps
• Favorites at the top, in your own order
• Recently opened apps
• Quick filters: TV apps, phone apps, store, sideloaded, system
• Wide TV banners, or square icons if you prefer
• Choose the number of columns
• Hide apps you never use
• Optional badges showing where each app was installed from
• Can be your home screen, on TVs that allow choosing one
• Available in over 70 languages
No permissions, no ads, no tracking. The app asks for no permissions at all, not even internet access.
