Why each option
The Application Picker allows developers to select an application, which sets the current development scope and determines the ownership of new or modified artifacts.
The Application Picker does not 'run' an application; it sets the context for developing within an application.
Selecting an application as a favorite is typically handled through the Application Navigator, not the Application Picker, which focuses on development scope.
The Application Picker's primary function for developers is to select the application they intend to work on, which establishes the current application scope. This scope ensures that newly created or modified scripts, tables, and other application artifacts are associated with the correct application, preventing unintended changes to other applications.
Downloading and installing applications usually involves the ServiceNow Store or the Application Manager, not the Application Picker, which is used for active development.
