Termux App Launcher

A simple android application launcher script for Termux.

Tested on android 11.

Requirements

• fzf: To list the applications.
• aapt: To extract the application label.
• am: To launch the application.
• cmd: To list the installed packages and paths.

The last two are probably already installed.

For the first two, use this command:

pkg install fzf aapt -y

Installation

mkdir -p ~/.local/bin && wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/zenarvus/termux-app-launcher/refs/heads/main/app-launcher -O ~/.local/bin/app-launcher && chmod +x ~/.local/bin/app-launcher

Do not forget that ~/.local/bin/ should be in the PATH. Put this code in your .bashrc file:

export PATH=$PATH:~/.local/bin

Usage

help: lists all available commands.

select: spawns fzf to select and launch an application.

generate: generates a list of currently installed applications.
