Sideload Launcher

Launch Any Sideloaded App on Android TV with a Fast, Simple Tools-Only Interface

This is only for new Android TV devices like ADT-1 and Nexus Player; it is completely useless on other devices.

Android TV requires apps to be updated and marked as compatible before they appear in the Play Store. Many apps still run well when sideloaded, but they stay hidden from the Leanback Launcher, leaving you unable to open them directly. This lightweight tool solves that problem with a clean layout optimized for easy navigation and fast access.

The Sideload Launcher displays the standard launcher icons you’d normally see on a phone or tablet—perfect for launching any sideloaded app instantly. Ideal for users searching for the best Android TV launcher app, tips on how to run sideloaded apps on Android TV, or a reliable Android TV app compatibility tool.

• Shows all sideloaded apps that Android TV hides from the Leanback Launcher.
• Simple, lightweight interface designed for quick app access.
• Works with ADT-1, Nexus Player, and other modern Android TV devices.
• Great for testing open-world anime gacha games or other sideloaded content.
• Boosts usability for users installing apps outside the Play Store.
