What can com.sec.android.app.launcher be used for?

Can com.sec.android.app.launcher be used to hide or disguise messages, texts, or apps on your phone? I am encountering an issue that I can't post about on here, but knowing what this apk can do would help greatly.

Here I was looking for ‍‍‍cdfs mode launcher when I come across this old post. Hmm... Now I'll throw my 2 cents in:

The {.sec.} in a manifest.xml files that I have come across changes the name compared to the other ones w/o it. Looks something like this:

<name>android.hardware.audio.effect</name>
And: <name>IEffectsFactory</name>

Open that and it's readable:

Compared to: <name>vendor.samsung.hardware.gnss</name>
And: <name>ISecGnss</name>

Open this and it will freak you out! All kinds of wing dings looking symbols instead of text.

Per this extensive list of apps that are safe or dangerous to remove from your phone, the particular package com.sec.android.app.launcher is TouchWiz Home which is a Launcher provided by default on your phone.

You should only remove this if you have another launcher installed.
