Quick menu

The quick menu opens over everything – GameLodge, a game or a stream – with Start (hold) by default. LB / RB switches its tabs, B closes it.

Tabs

Quick access

Toggles (Wi-Fi, VPN, Bluetooth, airplane mode …), volume and brightness. Running background tasks show here too.

  • Android: Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, airplane mode and the VPN; volume and brightness. On the AYN Odin the TV output mode is in the Odin settings ("Video output mode").
  • Windows: volume, the audio output device and – where the display can be dimmed – brightness.

Hosts

Your hosts with wake-up, shut down, their settings and auto sleep.

Controllers

Connected controllers; select one for its settings.

Home Assistant

Your entity tiles, see Home Assistant. The pencil edits them.

Settings

The quick menu's own shortcut, and ways to open it by touch in other apps.

While a game or stream runs, a Running tab comes first: resume, quit, and the stream controls (on-screen keyboard, mouse emulation, performance overlay, disconnect).

Edit quick access

The pencil on the Quick access tab edits its toggles:

Edit quick access

Remove tiles with ✕, reorder them with the handle, Add tile for more, Reset to defaults. Below, Device controls chooses which sliders show.

Opening it without a controller

  • Handle at the right edge (Android): a narrow bar at the right screen edge above every app; tap it.
  • Tile in Android's quick settings: add "Quick menu" to the quick settings you pull down from the top.
  • A keyboard shortcut under Touch, mouse & keyboard (system-wide on Windows).

Tasks

Metadata lookups, artwork downloads, scans, backups and restores run in the background. The status bar shows a spinner while any runs; the task list shows each with its progress. A backup (and a restore while it still unpacks) can be cancelled there.
