| 2022-05-17 |  | | This app is almost exactly what I need. However, when I hit home on my NVIDIA Shield TV Pro, Kodi relaunches every time. This creates a near 5 second delay which unfortunately makes it unusable. The ideal behavior would be to just return to Kodi's Home screen without reloading everything. If the dev can reach out to help, that would be awesome. |
| 2021-05-05 |  | | Works exactly like described! Thumbs up for the dev! |
| 2020-12-23 |  | | I don't know what the hell happened but this app took over my phone and wouldn't allow me to gain control back. I had to take it to my phone company to have it fixed... Not happy!! |
| 2020-09-03 |  | | Does most of what I want but breaks when I press the home button while media plays. When I first hit the home button during a stream the screen freezes framez. Setting Kodi to stop media playback and go to the main menu when the home button is clicked seemed to fix the problem, except then if I try to play something else it comes back. I get the freeze frame of the old media but still get audio. End up having to restart Kodi through the settings to fix. |
| 2020-07-30 |  | | When i use Launcher for XBMC on an Android TVBox, it does not get an ip address and fails to start servers. By restarting Kodi it gets fixed. This needs to be done every single time the box is turned on. Would you please change that so that XBMC waits to get an ip address before launching Kodi (Leia)? |
| 2019-05-17 |  | | I saw your review of the other launcher app ripping off your app and adding adds. so i downloaded this one. Noice! |
| 2019-04-24 | | | we will see |
| 2019-02-16 | | | not working yet jr |
| 2018-07-11 | | | Great app. Have been using it for years to auto-launch Kodi on our home TV's. Am now making the switch over to Emby. Any chance you could add support for auto launching Emby for Android TV as well? |
| 2017-07-12 | | | Brilliant. Does exactly what it says it will. Something that may be useful would be to have an option of a hotkey that takes you into Android Settings or perhaps even another configurable app before the system goes into Kodi as I have found that sometimes, especially with SPMC when some files become corrupt the installation (SPMC) does not recover and you are left with a blank screen. Again, this is totally the fault of SPMC not this app. :-D |
