Projectivy Launcher Channels and Rows: Continue Watching Without Scrolling

The evening should start with the show you were watching, not with a search. Start from Projectivy Launcher for TV and put continue watching where one press reaches it.

Continue watching first

The most valuable row on any TV is continue watching, because it answers the only question that matters in the evening: what were we watching? Put that channel row at the top, above app categories, so one press resumes the show. If continue watching sits fifth down, the household will open the app instead, and the row is wasted.

Channel rows versus app rows

Channel rows show content. App rows show apps. Keep both, but give them different jobs: channels for resuming, apps for browsing. A Projectivy Launcher home screen of only channels buries new apps, and a home screen of only apps makes resuming a chore. One channel row on top and app rows below is the balance most homes settle on. See also the categories and channels guide for the step by step version.

Hide dead rows

Hide a row the week it goes stale instead of letting it sit. A finished series leaves a continue watching row that points nowhere useful, and a seasonal app leaves a channel nobody opens. Hiding is not deleting: the row can return when the next series starts, but while it is dead it costs a remote press every evening. Pair this with the home screen customization guide when you rebuild the rows.

Row count discipline

Cap the home screen at the rows opened weekly. Count them honestly: if a row was not opened in two weeks, it is decoration. Move it down or hide it, and watch navigation speed improve, especially on older TVs. The best Projectivy Launcher home screen is not the fullest one. It is the one where the evening starts in one press.
