Recommendation needed: Best launcher that allows Anydesk control

by Big_Malaka

Relatively new here. Have 2 new Shields and getting a crash course with the device regarding homegrown app installs and the home screen changes. I've also been looking at the various ways people can remote control their devices. Without getting into too much detail, the data and network security risks being taken by people have been a real eye opener, but I digress.

What I'm looking for is a premium home screen that will facilitate control of my device from my personal iPhone while off-network (web). The ads are annoying as well, but getting rid of them is a secondary desire for me. Seems like Anydesk will allow control but requires a different launcher. Looking for a recommendation from the Googleplay store and don't mind having to pay for it...would rather it work well, have a nice UI and be safe.

Also, please let me know if you have any concerns with Anydesk that I may have missed. It's just going to be used temporarily, not for extended viewing. If there's a better alternative in the Apple App Store that I can also install on the Shield via the Google Play Store, I'm all ears. Thx.

Anydesk should work with any launcher as it has leanback support, I believe. If nothing else, I know it works with Sideload Launcher 2/3.

But, at least on my CCwGTV it's a bit of a hassle. It always wants to run in the background. And when it was enabled, it would mess up weird things because of the accessibility permissions (I couldn't reorder apps in the default launcher). I didn't need it much so I ended up uninstalling it.
