About MX3 Launcher
A minimal Google TV launcher: a flat grid of apps and nothing else.
Built as a lighter alternative to full-featured TV launchers (no
live-TV integration, no content recommendation rows, no search/voice)
for anyone who just wants a fast app grid.
Features:
* Flat app grid, 5, 6, or 7 columns (your choice), showing every
installed launchable app.
* Top bar with a live clock, a Wi-Fi status icon that jumps straight to
system network settings, a system settings shortcut, and the
launcher's own settings shortcut.
* Theme: follow system, light, or dark, with a choice of background
gradient presets.
* Per-app show/hide and reordering, via move-up/move-down controls
rather than drag-and-drop, since drag gestures do not have a sane
D-pad equivalent.
* Press Menu while an app icon has D-pad focus to jump straight to that
app's system "App info" page (permissions, storage, uninstall), the
standard "long-press an icon" destination on touch launchers, reached
here without needing a touch-only gesture.
* Optional online backup and restore of settings via
sync.odiousapps.com (see "Online services" below), with multiple
timestamped backups to pick from when restoring, plus a one-tap reset
to defaults (which works offline).
* Optional "Soundbar wake": before launching an app, call a URL on your
own server to wake a soundbar that has gone into standby (see
"Online services" below).
* A background service detects the device waking from standby and
brings the launcher back to the foreground if something else (such as
the device's own built-in launcher) took over during that time.
MX3 Launcher does not itself favour, require, or bundle any particular
third-party app -- it simply lists whatever is already installed.
Online services (both optional, off until you pair them):
The app grid and all other features work fully offline. Two features
talk to sync.odiousapps.com, a pairing/backup service run by the
developer, and only after you press "Pair" in S
