Beginning with Android 15, restrictions on background network access have been strengthened. As a result, network traffic, such as file downloads, may be restricted while an app is running in the background.

4) Important Usage Instructions (Do Not Navigate to the Home Screen During Download or Installation)

Navigating to the Home screen or another app while resources are being downloaded may interrupt the download.
→ Keep the Smart Launcher screen open until the resource download reaches 100%.
After all resources have been downloaded and the installation process begins, do not navigate to the Home screen until installation is fully completed.

5) FAQ

Q1. Why does navigating to the Home screen during the resource download cause a problem?
A. When you navigate to the Home screen, Smart Launcher enters the background, which may interrupt the download. Keep the Smart Launcher screen open while the download is in progress.

Q2. What happens if I navigate to the Home screen during installation?
A. If installation is interrupted, the app may appear to have been installed even though its internal files and resources were not applied correctly. As a result, the app may not operate properly, and reinstallation may be required.

Q3. When can I navigate to the Home screen?
A. Navigate to the Home screen only after all resources have been downloaded and installation is fully completed. (Do not navigate away while the download or installation is in progress.)
