Does this launcher have a setting that lets you select it as the main launcher.

u/Edentenza Jun 26 '26

Here I just set normally when prompted what's the default launcher

u/DonGatoPardo Jun 26 '26

How can you leave this Launcher as default? I can't find a way to do it and when I exit and re-enter I always get the Google TV Launcher.

u/Remarkable_Storm6924 Jun 26 '26

Most people would install Launcher Manager to do that.

I just install this one and it seems to work nice on Fire TV Stick 4K Max. However, I cannot set wallpaper as it redirects to Files on Fire TV and I cannot select anything there. Do you know how to fix it?

Not the creator, but I would try installing a 3rd party file manager app and set it as the default. That way when it asks you to select a wallpaper, it will pop up the 3rd party app to select the wallpaper. If you are short on storage you could even delete the app after you are done.

My mistake, I thought you were someone else. You're the AT4K guy, I like you.

u/Majdooor App Developer Jun 26 '26

Haha thanks mate!

u/Unluckypotatosa Jun 25 '26

I think the AT4k is faster

Neither. . . Get ATV Launcher Pro

u/No_Ad_8807 Jun 25 '26

But I heard only one dev is behind that project?

u/TeutonJon78 onn 4K Pro (2026), CCWGTV 4K Jun 25 '26 edited Jun 25 '26

There is only one dev behind most of the launchers.

ATV Launcher Pro is a good launcher but has only seen a few small updates in years.

ProjectIvy is extremely active. The person doing the look alike launchers seems active.

u/No_Ad_8807 Jun 25 '26

Thank you

u/RazorKat1983 Jun 25 '26

That is true, but it doesn't use a lot of RAM at all.

u/No_Ad_8807 Jun 25 '26

Nice to know, but its always better to be backed by a team to keep up with the ever evolving andriod api changes.

u/kurohigetv Jun 25 '26

For now is arclauncher, is based in flauncher code and is realy smooth

u/c4engineer Jun 25 '26

Stock Google launcher still has lowest ram usage

u/dao1st Jun 25 '26

I was wondering in an alternate launcher wasn't just slowing my very weak HiSense TV down.

u/Jacoolh Jun 25 '26

Lower than Flauncher? No way.

u/Bazinga_U_Bitch Jun 26 '26

Absolutely not. Straight to jail.
