Flashiibo Pro / Visual Tutorials / Customizing Home Screen

Flashiibo includes several built-in apps and operating modes:

  • File Explorer: Browse folders and select amiibos to scan.
  • Other RFID/NFC: Multi-tag RFID & NFC card emulation.
  • Manual & Bluetooth: Wireless file transfers and companion app connection.
  • Settings: System preferences, screen brightness, and tools.
  • NTAG215 Slots: 100-slot emulation mode for mobile companion apps.

If you primarily use Flashiibo for Nintendo Switch amiibo gaming and prefer a clean, minimal menu, you can easily show or hide specific apps using Home Config.


Step 1: Open Home Config in Settings

From the main screen, scroll to and select the Settings app:

Settings Menu Home Config

  1. Use the DOWN button to highlight Home Config.
  2. Press the OK button to enter the menu.

Step 2: Review Currently Enabled Apps

The Home Config menu lists all optional apps that can appear on your home screen:

Home Config All Apps Enabled

  • Each app displays an eye icon [O] showing that it is currently visible on the home screen.
  • By default, apps like Other RFID/NFC and NTAG215 Slots are visible.

Step 3: Toggle Apps On or Off

To hide an app you don’t use:

Toggling App Visibility

  1. Use the UP and DOWN buttons to highlight the app you want to hide (e.g., Other RFID/NFC).
  2. Press the OK button to toggle its visibility.
  3. The eye icon changes to empty brackets [ ], indicating the app is now hidden from the home screen.
  4. Your settings are saved immediately.

Step 4: Enjoy Your Clean Home Screen

Long press BACK to return to the home screen:

Customized Streamlined Desktop

  • The hidden app is now removed from your main menu.
  • You can now scroll directly between your primary apps without extra clutter!

Restoring Hidden Apps

[!NOTE] The Settings app itself can never be hidden from the home screen. If you ever want to re-enable a hidden app in the future, simply return to Settings > Home Config and toggle the eye icon back on.
