All-in-One APK (App + Plugins) for Fire OS devices

Post by *88keyz »

Would it be possible to create an APK version for Fire OS devices that contains all of the free plugins already integrated into the application? The reason I ask is because when TC plugins are installed on Fire TV devices they show up as a separate installed application and continue running separately after TC has been closed. Installation of TC plugins on Fire TV devices results in a cluttered application bar because the TC application and each plugin all have individual application icon tiles and are treated as separate applications by the system instead of a single application plus functionality addons.

Unfortunately this would be very difficult to achieve, because all plugins use the same class names for the main plugin functions. 2 classes with the same name cannot reside within the same app.

Can't you move the plugins to a subfolder or hide them otherwise?

Fire TV OS doesn't support the use of folders or hiding applications, anything installed via apk will have a visible icon on the application bar and this includes any addons or plugins for installed apps.
