Ok, I have found a "my apps" control, which I think is what you need. My biggest problem here is that this seems to be a button unique to LG's TVs. I've been hoping to make Pierogi as universal as possible, so it can be a bit tough to squeeze in some of these less common controls. But even if I don't manage to find a good way to get it into an existing panel, I should at least make it available via the Macros panel... I'll see what I can do.

Rewind, Fast forward and then BACK button is very useful inside menus where exit button closes everything.
Hmm. What functions are Rewind and Fast forward being used for inside of menus? (Is it something like a page up / page down function?) As to the back button, I see that I've managed to get confused -- older LG TVs appear to have only an "Exit" button, whereas newer ones have renamed that control "Back", and created an entirely new "Exit" button. I guess I missed the fact that the old control was still being used, but in a new way; I thought they had just moved the Exit command to a new value. I'll figure something out.

I have to admit, there is still a lot of room left on the Menu panel to add new buttons; I was trying to keep it as simple as possible, to make using the menu controls easier, but I can certainly see adding more controls to support more navigation options...
