A bug and a suggestion for Activity Manager #166
Description
A bug occurs when using the Activity Manager on the TV: if you long-press the down button on the remote to view the apps and activities below, the cursor on the TV screen keeps jumping repeatedly from bottom to top. Even when quickly pressing the down button on the remote, the cursor still jumps to the top. Another suggestion is that it would be great if the app could add a feature to favorite activities, because the home screens of some devices do not support creating shortcuts.

The app is not designed for TVs and works as is.
I started working on a new TV layouts but I don't know when it will be on par with the mobile version.
You can try it by following these steps:
Launch "Activity Manager" on TV, open "Activity Manager", launch "TvActivity".

The solution is to load all applications and all their activity icons immediately after launching the Activity Manager, so that when using the Activity Manager on the TV to scroll down the app list, it won't jump around. For example, MT Manager.
