Talkies 1.0 is here, and it’s officially out of beta 🚀 The biggest change: you no longer have to build it yourself. There’s a ready-made APK, and Talkies will update itself from now on. When a new version is out, a bell appears on your home screen; one click installs it. A lot of you were asking for an APK, so here it is. Thanks for your patience! Also new since 0.4: • Send your TMDB and cricket keys from your phone with a QR code, instead of typing them with the remote • RAM and storage meters on the home screen • Back up and restore your settings • A built-in setup checklist, so nothing gets missed • Menus loop around: press Up on the first row to jump to the last

Talkies 0.4 is out 🎬 Please keep the feature requests coming. This is my first-ever open-source project, and thanks for all the love! 🎵 Now playing: the song on your TV, with artwork, pause and skip, right in Control Center 🌦️ Weather forecast: the next hours, and the next days with one more press 🎮 Inputs know your consoles: PlayStation, Xbox, Switch, Fire TV, Apple TV by name, in their brand colors 🧩 Proper tiles for apps without a TV banner, made from their own logo ⚡ Animation speed (1×, 0.5×, Off) and free storage in Control Center 🖼️ Bing’s picture of the day as wallpaper, with text that stays readable over any photo 📺 Runs on Android 8.0 and later, not just 11+ (need help testing this) Still ~180 KB, no libraries, no ads, open source (MIT).
