Kyu Launcher v0.98 is here, the Roku inspired minimal TV launcher has come a long way since it's launch

I asked the community over at r/KyuLauncher to provide translations.

This update includes pretty much everything people asked for so apart from minor bug fix updates and new themes I don't think the launcher will need updating again. It's still simple, usable by your grandpa and his mates, and does not eat a large share of resources.

Themes I can update over the air in the theme store so ask me if you want anything.

Does Disney + not work?

Anyone else running into this issue? I am obsessed with this launcher, just wondering if anyone else isn't able to use Disney plus

Custom Image selection issue

I'm curious to know if anyone else has the same issue I have selecting a custom image as the background.

I have about 25 pics saved on my Onn 4k Pro box for wallpaper purposes. While using AT4K and after clicking custom image, all of my images show up fine. The issue is that when I use my remote to scroll through the images, none of them get highlighted so I have no way to determine which image I'm about to select. I can choose an image and it uploads fine as the backdrop. I just can't visually see the item my remote is hovering over or about to select. I kind of have to guess.

Change App Name

Hi, I love your app and I’ve upgraded to Premium. It would be great if users could not only change the app icon, but also rename the apps themselves. For example, I would like to rename TizenTube to YouTube. Is that possible?

Watch Next unavailable

I can't use this function. Is it because my TV doesn't allow me to read other software data?

YouTube and Stremio already have some content to watch later.

Question

Does this launcher usually manage to override the standard launcher, such as the home button, successfully after restarting the device?

Premium Features on Fire TV

I know this question has been asked, but I cannot find the answer anywhere, so I want to ask again.

I install AT4K Launcher on Fire TV Stick 4K Max via sideloading. Since Fire TV does not have Google services, AT4K disables Premium payment. How can I pay for Premium features to use on my Fire TV?

How do I get rid of this file explorer? It's so annoying! I want to use my 3rd party file manager.

This is a Skyworth Android Box running Android 14. I can't choose my 3rd party app RS File Manager, so it's a pain to choose wallpapers and icons. I have a TCL Google TV too that doesn't behave this way. It always asks me to choose a file manager.

EDIT: I noticed that it's happening to all my Android boxes running Android 14. My TCL Tv is still running Android 12 and it is not happening. So I don't know if this is an OS or AT4K problem.

Can I add sound?

Loving the app. Is there a way to make the audio play from the video clip that I made my background? If not maybe in the next update Mr. Developer? Fingers crossed!

Issues loading MP4 clips

I have about a dozen short mp4's/live wallpaper clips that I've downloaded from Various websites to use as the background image on this app.

When I go to the screen to select the clip I would like to apply, about half of them don't show a preview image, just a grayed-out screen. If I select one of them with a gray screen to use, they never load up properly as the background image.

I'm also having an issue in the selection screen because it doesn't highlight the clip when I'm using my remote to scroll left/right/up/down to hover over them. I have to randomly guess which clip is highlighted because there is no indication. Some I can't even navigate to at all.

Anybody else having issues with this? All of the small mp4 clips that I've put into my Onn 4k Pro box open up fine on my pc screen.

​Optimization Suggestions

​

1,​"Most TV boxes don’t actually shut down but just go into standby mode. When I wake the device up, the video wallpaper is always stuck on a paused frame. Could you add a feature to automatically refresh or restart the video wallpaper upon waking the device? It would make the experience much smoother."

2."Regarding the shortcuts in the top-right corner (Wi-Fi, Settings, AT4K Settings): Since Wi-Fi settings rarely need to be adjusted once connected, I think it would be much more practical to replace it with a Bluetooth shortcut. I often use a Bluetooth mouse to manage my wallpapers, and I frequently switch between different Bluetooth audio devices (like speakers for daytime and headphones for nighttime). Having quick access to Bluetooth settings would really improve the workflow."

​"I hope these suggestions are helpful, and I look forward to seeing some improvements in future updates."
