D DaOne Member Licensed User Longtime User Sep 4, 2014 #1 I am trying to help a buddy create a way to start selected apps via Arduino commands over serial. Does anyone have an example project that shows how to list app apps on the device and assign them to launch via a given command? Basically looking for a launcher example code.
