Installation on Android TV

How to install JellyWatch on your Android TV, Google TV, or Fire TV device.

Google Play Store (Android TV / Google TV)

  1. Open the Google Play Store on your TV.
  2. Search for JellyWatch TV.
  3. Select the app and press Install.
  4. Once installed, launch it from your app row or home screen.

Amazon Appstore (Fire TV)

  1. Open the Amazon Appstore on your Fire TV.
  2. Search for JellyWatch.
  3. Select the app and press Get.

Sideloading (APK)

If your device does not have access to a store:

  1. Enable Unknown sources in your device Developer Options.
  2. Transfer the APK to your device (USB drive or adb install).
  3. Install with a file manager or via adb install jellywatch-tv.apk.

First Launch

When you open the app for the first time you will see an animated splash screen, then the login screen. Enter your Jellyfin server URL and credentials to get started.

The app keeps the screen on while in the foreground and manages its own inactivity screensaver - your TV will not fall asleep mid-browse.
