User Reviews

FLauncher is widely praised for its simplicity, deep customization, ad-free experience, and open-source approach. Users appreciate the minimal, category-based UI that replaces cluttered stock launchers and works well on Android TV/Google TV devices, sometimes with ambient mode and Google Photos support. Key drawbacks include not being prompted to set it as the default launcher and occasional wallpaper-download issues. Some users request features like backing up/restoring settings and more robust defaults.

Pros

Easy to use with deep customization via categories and flexible app ordering.
Ad-free experience across TV devices, leading to a cleaner, faster interface.
Lightweight, clean launcher that reduces Google TV clutter and serves as a solid replacement.
Open-source (FOSS) with a straightforward, no-nonsense approach.
Good compatibility with Android TV/Google TV environments, including ambient mode and Google Photos support.

Cons

No prompt to set this as the default home/launcher, making it easy to fall back to the stock launcher.
Background wallpaper/images sometimes fail to download, and there is no automatic wallpaper change feature.

Recent reviews

This is exactly what a launcher for a TV or streaming stick should look like. It's simple to use, highly customizable, and looks great.

This free app is now setup on my TCL Google TV. I like how it shows some system apps, like Play Store and other side loaded ones which are not on the regular tv display. I switched the TCL TV to Apps Only and much of the backround ads are gone. I am happy now.
