Built-in wallpapers, your own photos, solid colours and an accent colour.

A black screen, a floating clock, or a bouncing DVD-style word.

Every screen works with the D-pad. No mouse, no touch.

Tiny and quick

Under 1 MB, built on plain Android views for smooth motion on modest TV hardware.

Private by design

No ads, no tracking, no account. It just shows your apps.
