   ((sc==${#sp})) && sc=0

echo "Uninstalling Android Things category apps"
# This script is for > DP8 
# for < DP8 you need to replace android.intent.category.HOME with android.intent.category.IOT_LAUNCHER on line 25

iotPackages=()
for userPackage in "${userInstalledPackages[@]}"
do
	:
	spin
	categoryLauncherText=$( adb shell pm dump $userPackage | grep "android.intent.category.HOME")
