Just as the subject requested. I would like a reboot app to use in homebrew with my vWii so it will boot back to my Wii U menu. The Homebrew Channel has a shutdown option and I can hit the power button on the controller, but a app with maybe a 5 second countdown would be more streamlined. Anyone around here still work on homebrew? Much appreciated, thanks.

This hb app shuts down the wii instantly once you run it; wii shutdown
I tested it on a real wii and its works. I dont have a wii u so you'll have to test it out for your self. If you really need the count down timer I can work on that at some other time.

Hey @newo, yeah that program did work n my Wii U. It shut it down instantly, but I need something to reboot it. I don't particularly need a count down, I was just thinking of that to show that it's working. But if it works it just works! But if you have the knowledge and know-how to change it to reboot, I bet a lot of Wii U users would get some use out of it. Thanks for replying dude.
Here is the restart app; wii restart
its pretty simple to do just one function call. more info can be found on this page; https://wiibrew.org/wiki/Developer_tips

Wow, you weren't joking. That's some pretty impressive stuff. How long have you guys been working on that game? Thanks a lot for the app. You have pretty much given me an easy workflow to use my Pro Controller if I want to do any busy work on my Wii U (download apps, move folders around or delete things, etc). Cause I enjoy using that more that I enjoy using the gamepad. I know it's a simple line of code, but would you mind if I posted it on theWii U board? Changing the meta xml and giving you proper credit of course. And say, you wouldn't happen to know anything about adding Wii U Pro controller support to Wii apps would you?
Yeah boy howdy. It's pretty amazing that you have that optimized for the Wii without using any Wii U overclocking. Good job. Alright I'll change the meta data and write up a small thing. And yeah, I get that the Pro Controller stuff takes some more manovering. I have the publicly posted source of a Wii app that apparently needs some library's applied and recompiled. If you'd ever have some free time and a Vinmo account, I'll buy you a beer
