Customizing Homebase

Home screen

Home is built from sections:

Section	Shows
Jump back in	What you played or opened most recently, large
Pinned	Games and apps you pinned, in your order
Library	Your games
Apps	Your apps

Settings → Customize Home turns sections on or off (A) and moves them up or down (◄ ►).

Pins

Highlight any game or app, press Start (or right-click), and choose:

• Pin to Home: adds it to the Pinned section.
• Pin to sidebar: adds it under the main tabs in the sidebar (up to four).
• Move left / Move right: reorders your pins.

Pins are per profile, so everyone gets their own Home.

Themes

Three themes are built in: Midnight (deep blue), Graphite (neutral dark) and Linen (light). Pick one in Settings → Theme or in your profile. Themes are per profile.

More themes can be installed as .hbpkg packages; see Building from Source.

Accessibility

• Text size: scales all text.
• Reduce motion: turns off animations.
• High contrast: stronger outlines and text.
• Homebase works with screen readers through Windows UI Automation.

Controller buttons

Settings → Controller buttons remaps Select, Back, Search, Options and the section buttons, with Reset to defaults. See Controls.
