The problem
Home screens are built around what the TV vendor wants to promote.
A launcher you configure, not one you surrender to
Customize each TV, connect the JunctionBox bridge, and choose carefully how to access it.
The solution
Install the launcher through Roku developer mode or Android/Fire TV debugging and select the apps and plugin tiles you want.
Return to your launcher
Roku and Fire TV use a bridge-assisted return mechanism; compatible Google TVs can use JunctionBox as Home. Results depend on device firmware.
Secure off-network option
Advanced setup supports a Tailscale-based away address for the launcher bridge, while maintaining bridge token and PIN protections.
One system. More useful screens.
