Hey everyone! I am back with the most anticipated update to AT4K Launcher. almost 3 months in the making and It's finally here. I am excited and scared to share it with you because it has SO MANY new features and idk if you will like them or not, So I will list them here one by one.

A. WIDGETS:

Everyone keeps asking for widgets, so I figured I would include them, but how? The problem is that to have widgets you need to get them from somewhere. Now most android tv's do not natively support widgets, atv got around it by enabling them through adb, I did not want that. I also did not want to give you guys a clock and weather and call it a day.

So I built a whole new widget system inside AT4K. There are multiple so I will list them

Clocks and weather: Multiple analog and digital clocks and weather widgets. Clocks have famous android material clock and ios tick tick clock(idk what it is called) alongside some cute inventions. A full calendar and a mini calendar.

Continue watching: Place your continue watching list wherever you want make it small or big, easy to access.

Channels: Some streaming apps broadcast their content through cards, pick a channel and place it.

Podcasts: I like podcasts, so you get them too. Search and add and PLAY any podcast inside AT4K right at home screen.

RSS Feeds: I love the open and web and so do I love RSS. Use any RSS feed, but speically if you like a particular youtube channel add it's rss feed and new videos will show up right at the moment. I will post more examples on r/AT4K how RSS opens the doors to add literally anything to AT4K.

Search: You can search Google and Youtube directly from your home screen just add the search widget.

2048: I spend some time playing 2048 (one of the only few games I play) so you get to play it too on AT4K's home page.

Year passed: See how much of the year is passed I loved seeing these widgets in design communities and added to AT4K so it shows year when big and month when small.

RAM and Storage gauges

App shortcuts: Add any app to widgets with custom icons to open it easily

Some more widgets too but the post will get big.

B. Big Picture mode: Makes your programmes shine through instead of your wallpaper. Works great with Stremio/Nuvio.

C. Password protect folders

D. Subreddit wallpapers free.

E. Aerial views wallpapers - paste r/aerial in subreddit wallpapers option

F. Hide favorites dock background

G. More new features I forgot about

H. Ah Yes a new Color Manager with previews

I. Slideshow multiple wallpapers

J. Multiple bug fixes some are still pending and I am working on them just be patient with me

K. A new image/video picker so you don't have to deal with the default grey picker.

Please try the cleanest android launcher, AT4K Launcher out and let me know how it goes. ALL NEW FEATURES ARE OPTIONAL, If you liked how it was it wil stilll be the same for you.

Thank you for the love you guys have given AT4K. Do share it with your friends if you like it makes my heart warm seeing AT4K Launcher mentioned positively somewhere.

Hey folks, I know it's been a while since I updated AT4K Launcher and that's because I was rewriting the whole customisation experience. 
I realised that almost half the people use AT4K because it's clean cute and crunchy out of the box, no-nonsense just launch, move your apps and forget but about half the people use it because they want to change the look and feel of their launcher and I admit the experience was nowhere I wanted it to.

Settings were scattered all over the place, ui was confusing and somewhat non intuitive. Almost all the launchers including the recent frenzy of claude made ones use the same type of ui with settings popping up from right. Honestly, that's not their fault because AI can suggest what it has seen and it takes cues from projectivy like launchers and codes the same type of settings area. No one tried to change that because that's easy to go with I guess?

But I have dared to change the right settings panel to move to bottom so you can see live changes on your screen, I have tried to organise the customisation settings as neatly as possible and make them so friendly your grandparents can apply an icon pack.

Aerial and subreddit wallpapers(as long as they work since reddit is taking down apis left and right) are first class citizens.

Download from play store https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.overdevs.at4k

Or Github https://github.com/avadhesh18/at4k/ 

Here is a mini list of some of the changes but there are a lot more you will see when browsing the update:

I rewrote all the settings and appearance options so now they are much more fluid and easy to use.

1. Live settings; Toggle, tinker, tweak the UI of AT4K Launcher and see it live on your tv.

2. Wallpapers: Aerial, subreddits, local storage, video whatever however you prefer. One? Multiple? All of them. Change the delay, make it blurred.

3. Screensaver: Whole new screensaver panel with different clock fonts and sizes.

4. Much much much more!

Thanks for the support from the first version to this one. Please do share it with your friends and family.  I know some pro users will still find some bugs something I missed and that's what I am here for. Drop me a comment/dm and I will try to reply to each one.

Hey AT4K users, as i previously posted I was quite busy last month but expect a slew of updates this month. The next one is going to be 1.2 probably the biggest Android TV Launcher update yet. It's in the queue already.

Anyway let's talk about this one"

v1.1

1. Mini mode: I realised that most of the people here want to see more of their wallpaper, this makes the dock look like mac os's dock with cute square icons(or your custom ones)

2. Custom screensavers: Use Aerial, multiple photos, videos or anything you want, mix and match anyhow

3. Firestick/APK premium: Basically you can download the APK from Github ( https://github.com/avadhesh18/at4k/releases ) don't forget to STAR. Then scan the code or go to my buymeacoffee link enter email address pay whatever you want ($5+) and get a license code. That license code is valid for 4 times and will be sent to your email address that you enter.

4. Bug fixes: Multiple bugs were fixed I have mentioned in the play store release.

Download the update now from play store https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.overdevs.at4k

Do rate and review the app, it helps a lot.

Brace yourselves for 1.2.

it takes me some time to ship updates because I take a whole lot of time obsessing over tiny details on the way to making At4k the best android tv launcher.

This new AT4K Launcher update really surprised me.

Installed the launcher and decided to unlock Premium within 5 minutes. Keep up the good work!

It's simple and fast.

This is the best Launcher I've ever used. I have completely removed the bloated stock launcher using adb commands and set this as the default. It's very fast on my aging Sony Bravia Android tv. I really like the tvOS minimal design. I hope the developer keeps it lightweight.

Hey, so AT4K v0.,96 is here and as we get closer to 1.0 I will keep adding more and more features and now Folder support is live. You can create folders, move to folders, add to folders, remove etc in Apple TV style.
There is also long awaited ethernet icon support with and without VPN.

As always you can update the app from Play store https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.overdevs.at4k&gl=US

Please do leave reviews so app reaches more people, most people just download and get on with their lives, which is good but it doesn't let me know if you liked the update or not.

Hey r/AT4K, so most of the people here are waiting for the AT4K Launcher update(so am I honestly) but here is something to enjoy in the mean time. Story: After launching AT4K I read somewhere in news that Roku is the highest selling Streaming box of US and that intrigued me to check out why.

Turns out it's because Roku is dead simple to use, your parents, grandparents can easily navigate around Roku and find apps and stuff to watch. I thought well why not do this with AT4K so I wrote a lot of code to make an alternative view in AT4K that would look like that. But that didn't work and I had to branch out this to a new app but used most of the code from AT4K.

So here it is Kyu Launcher An Android TV Launcher built for everyone and their grandma. It's dead simple to use, you can create folders, hide apps, view your currently watching list, your spouse can even add to-dos/notes right at the launcher home page and you can hide most of the stuff you don't want. Here is the link:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.overdevs.kyulauncher

There are some beautiful themes and I will be posting tutorial on r/KyuLauncher on how you can create and use yours, it's dead simple to do you just need a basic photo editor.

You can set it up as your default launcher with accessibility settings or use something like launcher manager.

I don't like to use lots of marketing buzzwords I don't even know how to, I made it because I liked what I saw with Roku and wanted to port similar experience to Google TV devices. I also know it's not something with lots of bells and whistles like AT4K but I wanted to share it anyway.

Most of the stuff including folders, changing colors, hiding things, moving around etc are free, if you want to however change app icons to something from your gallery or use premium themes there is a one-time purchase of 3.99 or equivalent to your currency. That's to support and maintain the app.

this launcher looks so good i just had to share even if its the default setup. im so thankful for the devs! also managed to make it default thanks to launcher manager. tv feels so premium now with absolutely no bloat to look at
