How to disable Android TV Support in my app? Manifest complaining about missing LEANBACK_LAUNCHER
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ height:90px;width:728px;box-sizing:border-box;
}
I've been searching for a way to disable Android TV Support from the manifest. I know our app is incompatible and I've read that even when you aim at supporting Android TV, apps turn out unsupported anyways.
However, I have not found a way to stop the Manifest from asking for a INTENTBACK_LAUNCHER. I don't want to define one because I know that our app is not compatible with TV.
These are the warnings that I get right now:
Expecting uses-feature android:name="android.software.leanback" android:required="false" tag.
Expecting an activity to have android.intent.category.LEANBACK_LAUNCHER intent filter.
Hardware feature android.hardware.touchscreen not explicitly marked as optional
So when I try to supply the expected tags, even if I say the following:
uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.touchscreen" android:required="true"
It still sends a warning that it might not be supported by all TVs, which is nothing else than a warning but really annoying because I deliberately don't want to support Android TV. And even after I still get the LEANBACK_LAUNCHER intent filter warning as well.
Wouldn't requiring a touchscreen rid me of the manifest asking for a LEANBACK_LAUNCHER? I guess some TVs have touchscreens?
Anybody knows how to explicitly disable Android TV Support?
Thank you,

No. No banner attribute in application element, unfortunately.

You can disable the lint checks by adding the tools:ignore attribute to your manifest as follows:
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
package="com.example.sampleapp"
tools:ignore="ImpliedTouchscreenHardware,MissingLeanbackLauncher,MissingLeanbackSupport">
