This app can use Accessibility services if you choose so:
Accessibility is used :
• to detect remote button presses -> to customize button actions and for power control function (to detect user inactivity)
• to detect foreground app name -> to enforce parental control and for power control function (to turn off when a connected HDMI device turns off)
It is not used to see what you type. No personal data is collected through this service which is only used locally to serve the above purpose. It is secure and your privacy is respected. If you choose not to enable it, Projectivy will still work perfectly, minus the features above.

Great app to replace my built in Google TV launcher. It starts incredibly quickly, and makes it easy to force stop the apps that cause issues (like Paramount+). I'm finally buying the pro version for the extra configuration options.

I use this launcher on all my Google devices. I can't stand all the clutter on Google TV and this removes all that to give me a clean, simple interface that is snappy and clutter free!
