About bloody time! You've been able to do this from the web for years.

This feature was present in browser previously. Good that they brought it to phone also.

Ooh, that's useful. Still doesn't allow installation on another phone or tablet though - they would be extremely handy.

A few screenshots from when it's already installed on the phone, on both, and on neither :- https://imgur.com/a/1L1vle6

But can you install TiviMate? Or can you even find it searching on your phone?

Is this on the Android TV play store or phone app play store?

  • edit. Took me a minute to understand lol, I'm guessing it's an option within the play store

I don't see that, must be a setting I'm missing.

Is MX player still a shadow of it's former self?

Yes! I think it would also allow me to install apps on my tablets from my phone. I haven't got this update, though, but I have used this feature in the Play Store on desktop Web browsers.

I actually set the device names in the Google Play settings in a desktop Web browser, so for example, it'd likely show "Living Room TV" instead of "Skyworth SWTV" (Prism+ Q55 which is based on the Skyworth 55UB7500) .

I don't see it, but I have a Shield so I don't even know if that counts.

Will be able to install apps from phone on chromecast also?

I got this a week ago but I still prefer installing it via my Mi Box S instead of sending it from my phone.
