I want to find an app/launcher. that does something similar in functionility to a launcher called rui home launcher for tv. Essentially I want a dock with icons at the bottom for categories like video, tv, music, news, tools, when clicked they switch you to the relevant home screen with those apps. I looked for ages and couldnt find anything. Rui home launcher for tv has the functionality, but looks pretty rubbish and can't really customise it to make it look slicker. I found another called smart launcher which looks nicer, but you have to click off from the homescreen to the view all apps area which isnt what I want. Anyone know an app I can use? Basicly all I want is the screen switcher small squares nav at the bottom of thr homescreen, just more custimisable to have icons to represent each caregory screen.

I may be misunderstanding, but it seems like thou could easily set up nova launcher that way:
Set up screen 1 with all the apps for a category. then Long press...create shortcut...nova actions...shortcut to screen 1 (creates shortcut to screen 1). Long press short cut icon to adjust icon and if desired to set an up swipe action. Drag to dock. Repeat for screen 2.
