hbusa Posted September 11, 2019 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
Jason Carr Posted September 11, 2019 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
returnZeroCool Posted September 12, 2019 Posted September 12, 2019 Is there or will there be a version optimised for Android TV? Quote

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
returnZeroCool Posted September 12, 2019 Posted September 12, 2019 Awesome. Thanks!!!! I’ll try it out tonight. 1 Quote

Hexxxer Posted September 12, 2019 Posted September 12, 2019 I would love to see the Android TV "Quick Launch" ability added. Any plans for this feature? Quote

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
Hexxxer Posted September 13, 2019 Posted September 13, 2019 (edited) That is correct, not really sure what google calls the feature Edited September 13, 2019 by Hexxxer missed an 's' 1 Quote

Is there any possible way we can get it integrated to run with the Bigbox plugin for Kodi? Quote

Or did you want to launch Kodi from LaunchBox? Quote
Sbaby Posted October 6, 2019 Posted October 6, 2019 If I buy launchbox for windows, do I have to buy also android or android is included in the purchase of windows? Quote

They are separate purchases, however you only need the free Windows version in order to export to Android. Quote

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? Quote

No, the desktop interface of Big Box won't automatically be accessible on Android if you start it from Kodi. Quote
