HorizonX: a lightweight, customizable home screen for Android TV

说明与用途

HorizonX 是一款轻量级、可定制的 Android TV 启动器，提供动画卡片、天气、问候和多语言支持。

问题

Android TV and Google TV lack a remote‑friendly, customizable home screen with animated cards and easy app access.

结果

HorizonX delivers a lightweight, animated, and multilingual launcher for Android TV, improving remote navigation and app access while remaining under 500 KB and ad‑free.

工作流

• Download the 500 KB APK from the GitHub release or build via the PC/ADB installer.
• Sideload the APK onto the TV using a file manager or run the PC installer scripts (Windows, Linux, macOS) with Python 3.10+ and Android Platform Tools.
• Launch HorizonX and use the remote to navigate animated cards and rows.
• Switch back to the original home screen via the provided instructions in the README.

The repository also contains experimental installers for Samsung Tizen, Roku, Fire TV, and Hisense VIDAA; those ports have not been tested on those TVs.
