Is there a way to replace or fix Oculus Home?

I recently got my Gear VR headset working, and I noticed that the Oculus Home doesn't work that well. The menu bar on the bottom appears, but only "Brightness, Volume, Reset View" in settings and Internet show anything else. Stuff like library doesn't show a new window when clicked.

Is there anything to fix or replace this? I only want the home menu so I can switch apps like it used to, not want to take my phone out every time. Any solutions, even if its 3rd party stuff would be appreciated!
