AppHub

How to install our apps on a TV

For Google TV, Android TV (Chromecast, Sony, TCL, Hisense, Philips…) and Amazon Fire TV. You only need the TV remote.

Step 1: Get the Downloader app (once)

1. On the TV home screen, open Search (or the Apps / Google Play store) and search for Downloader. Pick the one by AFTVnews with the orange icon.
2. Press Install, then Open. Allow it to use storage if it asks.

Step 2: Allow Downloader to install apps (once)

1. Google TV / Android TV: go to Settings › System › About, scroll to Android TV OS build and press OK 7 times until it says you are a developer.
2. Then go to Settings › Apps › Security & restrictions › Unknown sources and turn on Downloader.
3. Fire TV: Settings › My Fire TV › Developer options › Install unknown apps and turn on Downloader. (If Developer options is missing: Settings › My Fire TV › About, press OK on the device name 7 times.)

Step 3: Install AppHub

1. Open Downloader. In the address box type:
   tv.ngz.ca/bazaar
   and press Go.
2. When the download finishes, press Install. If Play Protect warns you, choose Install anyway (or More details › Install anyway).
3. Press Open. AppHub now sits in your TV's apps list. You can delete the downloaded file when Downloader offers it.

Step 4: Install any of our apps from AppHub

1. Open AppHub. It opens on TV apps. Move with the arrows on the remote; a yellow ring shows where you are.
2. Go to an app's Install button and press OK. (Press OK on the picture to read about the app first.)
3. The first time only, the TV asks to allow AppHub to install apps. Press Open settings, turn on AppHub, then press Back. The install continues by itself.
4. Press Install on the TV's screen (and Install anyway if Play Protect asks), then Open.

Step 5: Keep apps up to date

1. Open AppHub now and then. Apps with a newer version show Update, and the Updates tab lists them all. Press Update, then Install.
2. New apps added to AppHub appear in the app by themselves.

Codes for each app in Downloader

You can also type an app's own code in Downloader instead of using AppHub:

If something goes wrong

1. "There was a problem parsing the package": the download was cut off. Download it again.
2. "App not installed": uninstall the old copy (Settings › Apps), then install again.
3. An app didn't update: Settings › Apps › the app › Force stop, then open it again.
