Tips On How to set up an Android TV with ‘androidtv.com/setup’

Want to set up an Android TV with ‘androidtv.com/setup’ ? Here is the guide for that!

Android TVs and Smart TVs have emerged as a whole new trend in this era of entertainment. The difference between both is that Smart TV may offer you some smart features such as streaming media but Android TVs unlock a full smartphone experience on your television. Technically, the term ‘Android TV’ refers to the operating system based on Android and developed specifically for televisions. It transforms your normal TV into a large screen Android device, giving you support and access to Google Play Store and all the applications. But for that, you have to complete the Android TV Setup on your old or new TV properly. Only then, you will be able to enjoy a whole new Android experience on your television.

So if you have bought a brand new Smart/ Android TV or a streaming device such as Google Chromecast, you’ll need to complete the Android installation. Just like Android smartphones, your television also needs a first-boot install setup. There are several ways of doing so. You can either do it with the help of a web browser on your phone or desktop, through an Android phone or you can just use the smart TV remote and enter all the details manually. Although no one’s so handy with a TV remote, we have mentioned that method too. Anyways, here we have the full Android TV Setup Guide that will take you through the whole installation process. After that, you will be able to stream Netflix, Amazon Prime, and other OTT apps and media on a big screen with a crystal clear display.

Initial Setup and two installation methods

Before moving on to the actual installation process, you need to do a few basic settings such as select language, register a google account, select the applications to install, choose whether to use Google Assistant or not, etc. As we have mentioned earlier, there are three methods to complete the process. The first one requires an Android phone and the second one is to set up Android TV with ‘androidtv.com’. The third one requires entering details manually through the TV remote.
