Note for Android™ 8.0 and some Android 9 models : If Google Play Store is not in the Apps category, select Apps and then select Google Play Store or Get more apps.
Select the Google Play Store app in the Apps category. On the remote control, press the HOME button. The actual screen might differ slightly according to your country, region, model or firmware version. The screenshots provided here are for reference only. To purchase a paid app, a prepaid Google Play gift card code or credit card information is required. You can purchase a Google Play gift card from various retailers. About paid apps: There are free apps and paid apps. We recommend that you create a Google Account on a computer or mobile device. If you do not have a Google Account or want to create a shared account, create a new account by accessing the Google homepage. An Internet connection and Google Account are required to install apps. For other than Android TV: Checking all of the apps in the TV. For Android TV and Google TV: What apps are available on my Android TV or Google TV?. Google Play on the Android TVs, or Search for apps on the Google TVs, only display apps that are supported by the TV. To see if apps are or can be installed on the TV, refer to the following: They may differ from apps for smartphones/tablets. You can only download apps that are compatible with TVs.

If you want to read up on it, here is the thread on the Shield forums: Įdit2: I originally thought you were using a Shield, so the above might not be an issue for you at all.IMPORTANT: This article only applies to specific products (Android TVs) and/or operating systems. Someone on the Geforce forums managed to get around this by ripping the bbc iplayer app and renaming it so that it will stop disappearing. I use the ITV addon all the time to watch the live channels and watch the catch up on demand content.Įdit: I should mention that there's a chance that even after you install that BBC iPlayer app on your Android TV that it will magically disappear from your homescreen because you are not in the correct region (stupid nvidia). Again, they require VPN/smart DNS, but since you're already using a VPN that shouldn't be an issue. To access Channel 4 and 5 content you can try sideloading the mobile version, although you will need a mouse to control it since it's meant for phones/tablets.Īs for ITV, if you have Kodi installed, there is an ITV (and BBC) add-on that works fantastically. 
There is no Android TV app for Channel 4, 5, or ITV however (as far as I know).
(I uploaded a copy of the app that I use on my TV to my dropbox here) There is a BBC iPlayer Android TV app that works fine as long as you use a VPN/smart DNS.
