pengchujin/aerial-tv
Open-source tvOS-style launcher for Xiaomi, TCL and other China-market Android TVs, no ads.
Replaces a China-market TV's stock home screen with an ad-free, recommendation-free launcher: your apps on a glass dock, Apple TV's aerial screensavers, and a phone app that mirrors the icon grid so you can reorder, rename and hide apps by scanning a QR code. Installs over ADB without root, doesn't touch system apps, and restores to stock with one command. Setup needs developer mode enabled per TV brand — Xiaomi, TCL and Haier each use different steps.
