"I dont fully understand this one, just the basics but not the risks or why some apps show up in its list that were previously assumed to be safe loaded direct. Good to look it up for more details if unsure like me. I hesitate to use it but partly because it helps warn me of possible issues."

"It does exactly what it says. Quickly opens up a list of apps which includes the sideloaded ones. The need for an app like this shows how poorly managed the Android TV system. So many available Android apps are out there, yet we have to sideload them on the Android TV platform. Get your s*** together Google."

DESCRIPTION
This is only for the new Android TV devices, like the ADT-1 and the Nexus Player, it is completely useless on other devices
Android TV requires existing apps to be updated and declare themselves compatible before they`re installable from the Play store.
While certainly not as streamlined or seamless as the average user would wish for their TV, many apps can still function on some level on these devices if you sideload them, but they don`t show up in the Leanback Launcher (the Android TV homescreen).
So for that there is this app, the Sideload Launcher. A simple app that shows you the normal app launcher icons that a phone or tablet would show you, but which are hidden on Android TV, allowing you to launch any sideloaded app!
