Description
On Google TV, there was a way to launch a specific app when the device booted. By default the device would display the TV stream, making the OS feel more like an overlay on top of your television than something completely isolated.
Android TV will simply just display the launcher on a reboot, a small distraction for users expecting to see TV and annoying for individuals using Android TV as a dumb kiosk displaying a single video or stream.
This app allows the user to select a specific app to open when the device boots. It's just that simple. Any leanback-enabled app can be opened. Alternatively, the default TV app can be opened, returning you to the channel you just saw.
Want to make your Android TV act more like a dumb TV? Want to launch Sling TV immediately. You should download this small utility app.

Works pretty well on a 2017 Nvidia Shield, starting Kodi on boot. I don't use it for standby (Kodi/TvHeadend issues, unrelated), but from reboot it certainly does the job. Great work.

I am using this app for android television, its working fine but problem is when i turn off device and start again first it shows television launcher and then it loads. i need it to launch immediately after boot. And one more why the option disabled "launch tv app on boot" on android television.

Very useful app, can I add a suggestion though would it be possible to launch an app if you wake up your Shield TV from sleep as opposed to booting it, would love to see a feature like it to be incorporated in to this app, a good example is I like to play PSP games on PPSSPP it's the first thing I do when I wake the Shield TV from sleep, I would love PPSSPP to launch whenever I wake up the Shield from "sleep" as I hardly ever boot the Shield, if it's possible that is, other than that, awesome app (all of your app are awesome)

Unfortunately this app doesn't seem to work on the new Google TV Chromecast. Set up the app and tried waking the device from sleep as well as after a restart to no avail. I'd donate a couple dollars to the dev if they can get this working since I'd love to auto launch YouTube TV on wake.
