Replace your Android TV home screen with one you actually control.
ATV Launcher Pro turns any TV, box or handheld into a fast, clean home screen you arrange yourself. Built for the remote in your hand, and it works fine on a touch screen too.
✏ Edit your home screen, not a settings list
Add, move, hide, restyle or remove a row right where it lives, and watch it change as you do. No abstract menus, no guessing what a setting will look like.
🎨 Make it look like yours
- 16 ready-made section styles and 10 fixed arrangements with double-size featured tiles
- 7 tile layouts: real app banners, icon cards and generated poster art
- Configure any tile in a live preview, down to a banner of your own
- Colour, gradient or image backgrounds on tiles, rows, folders and the top bar
- Folders that preview what they hold: grid, banner grid or mosaic
- Video or image wallpapers, even on devices that block wallpaper changes
- Focus effects on the tile you land on
- Swap every icon at once with any installed icon pack, banners included
- Password-protected folders, hidden apps, custom icons and titles, backup and restore
▶ Get back to what you were watching
Your Watch Next queue and Recommended rows from the apps you already use, on the home screen as rows or widgets. Resume a show in seconds instead of hunting for it.
🧩 Widgets anywhere, and a top bar you arrange
Put a widget beside your apps in any row. Weather, Digital Clock, System Info, Favourite Application, Watch Next and Recommended widgets are built in, alongside Android system widgets, and the ATV Launcher Widgets API lets any developer publish live tiles of their own. The top bar is yours too: choose its elements and their order, run it full width or floating, switch TV inputs, and open Date and Time, Network and Bluetooth without a detour through settings.
Note: Android system widgets work on most devices, though some manufacturers restrict them. ATV Launcher widgets work everywhere.
📺 Built for the way you use a TV
D-pad navigation, remote controls and game controllers, on Android TV, TV boxes, projectors, gaming handhelds, retro setups and streaming sticks.
⚡ Quick on older hardware
Navigation stays responsive and apps open straight away, even on a TV box that has seen a few years.
🔒 No ads, no tracking, no data collection
Your device stays yours.
♿ Accessibility Service Disclosure
Some TVs do not let a third-party app take over the Home button. For those, ATV Launcher offers an optional Home Button Redirect, built on Android's accessibility service. With your permission it sees which app is in the foreground and your remote's key presses, acts only on the Home button, and opens ATV Launcher in place of the system home screen. Every other key passes through untouched. It never reads screen content. Nothing is stored, collected or shared, and it stays on your device. The feature is off unless you turn it on, and you can turn it off in Accessibility settings at any time.
