I was so happy when I installed Projectivy. Our home screen now has 3 nice looking ovals -- Jellyfin, YouTube, and YouTube TV. If I was the only one in the house it would have one icon...

No ads, no recommendations, just click into the app you want.

I had to do some searching to figure out how to properly set it up and all it took was enabling accessibility access so it could have access to the "Exit" button on my remote. Without that permission, it would still exit to the stock launcher.

I spent a bunch of time getting Projectivy set up all nice. But after using it for a while I realized that it's effectively unusable due to the long launch time.

That's annoying. I have an old Nvidia Shield and it's very fast.
