hbusa Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 If we buy LaunchBox on android will we receive BigBox on android when its available or will it be a new purchase? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Carr Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 LaunchBox and Big Box on Android will be the same application. Basically, I'll be adding views to the Android app to behave like Big Box. So no additional purchases. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

returnZeroCool Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 Is there or will there be a version optimised for Android TV? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do most of my development/testing on Android TV, so I would argue that the current version is optimized for Android TV. There's no reason that a separate version needs to be made in order for it to be optimized for Android TV; that's a misnomer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hexxxer Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 I would love to see the Android TV "Quick Launch" ability added. Any plans for this feature? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing you mean putting games on the Android TV home screen? I hadn't thought about it honestly, but that makes sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or did you want to launch Kodi from LaunchBox? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are separate purchases, however you only need the free Windows version in order to export to Android. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just wondering if we launched the Android version of LaunchBox from BigBox's addon within Kodi will it still provide the same interface as the Desktop version?

No, the desktop interface of Big Box won't automatically be accessible on Android if you start it from Kodi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
