Hey! I've downloaded and installed the launcher - but how do you actually activate it on the Pine64.

Sorry if this is a daft question!

Sorry for bumping a really old thread, it's just I've been trying to do exactly this. I updated Google Play Services and anything else that may have needed updating, installed the TV version of the Google app and then installed the launcher. Whenever I try to return home to this launcher it just crashes.

Edit: This has happened on multiple versions of the official Android image.

I found that installing an older version of the launcher seems to work thoug a lot of the functions don't work.

The main issue is that apps don't detect it as "android tv". e.g plex. So plex doesn't look the same.
