Tip when you searh for 'Downloader by AFTVnews' search for that otherwise you have to scroll thru a lot apps to find it in Google Play store for Android TV. Downloader app will allow you to install apk's and apps and download from websites and surf websites the same as you do with a computer and a web browser only difference this is for Android TV and works with a remote controller.

On this list I recommend these apps in settings of these apps you can setup Real-debrid if you have that service.

CyberFlix

Titanium TV

MX Player (This is a media player that you can set up in settings of these apps as the default player it's the best video player for these apps in my opinion.) It's on the list at the provided link, install this first then install apps above, in the settings select this as the default media player in each app CyberFlix and Titanium TV.

I'd add Blokada rather than AdGuard as its much easier to use.

TVZion for video on demand.

Its funny that people praises Puffin while shitting on ES Explorer.

BOTH are cancer. Why would want all your data goes through Puffin Servers? I hope you dont log on any services using puffin.

I’ll repeat it again:

Android TV —-> Puffin Servers ——> site you visit.

The two apps are big no no.

I'd recommend adding more storage. Add ES file explorer. PM me if youd like apps for content
