Description
I am upgrading my current project from appium.java-client.version 6.1.0 to 8.1.1
My previous code base was using AppiumDriver.launchApp() method to go to home screen, but I couldnot find any alternate method in version 8.1.1
I also went through https://github.com/appium/appium/issues/15807 but couldnot find any relevant information. Can anyone please help on this?

Research direction
Start by comparing the AppiumDriver.launchApp() usage in the 6.1.0 and 8.1.1 Java client versions, then review the linked Appium issue for migration context. Done means identifying a supported replacement for returning to the home screen and documenting how it applies to the 8.1.1 API.
