Spottyfriend Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 I've downloaded a new app to my phone which I wish to be added to Launchbox. However, it only automatically finds it when I select "Include Non-Game Android Apps". I don't want to do this, since I only want this one specific app added, and don't want to have to delete every single other app I have that is auto added to launchbox (either upon changing the setting, or going forward). I have tried using the "Add Game" function, but since apps cannot be found in the internal storage, I cannot manually add it. I know what the launch path should be - com.direwolfdigital.root - but I can't add this because it doesn't allow a typed path, only one found by browsing the internal storage. I even tried editing the xml file found in Platforms to add the game and it's path. This didn't work either. I feel like this should be a day-one, obvious feature, but I can't find it anywhere. Can anyone help? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can anyone help? This means that the app in question was not categorized correctly as a game by the developer. So, while not what you want to hear, unfortunately, this means that the only current solution is to use that option to include non-game Android apps and whittle the list down to what you are wanting to see.

Spottyfriend Posted December 29, 2022 Author Share Posted December 29, 2022 Ah that's a shame - there's no workaround with editing the platform xml file? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
