NetMirror for Android TV
NetMirror is made for the big screen — one app, a wall of titles, lean-back viewing. If you have an Android TV (Sony, TCL, Hisense, Philips and many more) or an Android TV box, there are three ways to get it running: sideload the APK, use the TV's browser, or cast from your phone. Here is each method and when to use it.
Three ways to watch NetMirror on a TV
Because NetMirror is a downloadable APK plus a web app, you have options on the big screen. The native install gives the best, remote-friendly experience; the browser and casting routes are quick if you would rather not install anything on the TV itself.
- Sideload the APK — the native app, navigable with your remote (recommended).
- TV browser — open the site directly if your TV has a working browser.
- Cast from your phone — mirror playback to the TV over Wi-Fi.
Method 1 — Sideload the NetMirror APK on Android TV
Sideloading just means installing an app from an APK file rather than the store. A small downloader app makes it painless with a TV remote.
- 1On the TV, open Settings → Device Preferences → Security and allow installs from unknown sources (or allow it for your downloader app).
- 2Install a trusted downloader / file-manager app from the Google Play Store on the TV.
- 3Use it to download the NetMirror APK from the official link.
- 4Open the downloaded file, confirm the install, then launch NetMirror from your apps row.
Grab the correct file first with the NetMirror APK download guide so you are not chasing the wrong version on the TV.
Method 2 — Use the TV's browser
If your smart TV or box has a working web browser, you can open the official NetMirror site and watch without installing anything. It is the lightest option, though navigating a website with a remote can be fiddly — a USB or Bluetooth mouse helps a lot.
Method 3 — Cast or mirror from your phone
Already have NetMirror on your phone? Cast or screen-mirror to most smart TVs over the same Wi-Fi network. It is the fastest route when you do not want to install anything on the TV, though a native install gives smoother playback and a layout built for a remote.
On a Fire TV Stick rather than Android TV? The steps differ slightly — see NetMirror on Fire TV & Smart TV, and for general big-screen tips read how to stream on Android TV.
Which method should you choose?
- Sideload the APK for the best, remote-friendly experience — recommended for most Android TVs and boxes.
- Use the browser only if your TV has a capable browser and you would rather not install anything.
- Cast from your phone for a quick, no-install watch when you are short on time.
If a stream stutters on the TV's Wi-Fi, the fixes in how to stop buffering apply to the big screen too.
On Android TV, a native sideloaded install almost always beats the browser — the layout is built for a remote, and playback is steadier.

Frequently asked questions
Can I install NetMirror on Android TV?
Yes. Allow installs from unknown sources, use a trusted downloader app to fetch the official NetMirror APK, then open the file to install it. NetMirror then appears in your apps row like any other Android TV app.
Is NetMirror on the Google Play Store for TV?
NetMirror is distributed as a downloadable APK, so on Android TV you sideload it rather than installing from the Play Store. Always use the official link from the homepage and a reputable downloader app on the TV.
Can I watch NetMirror on a smart TV without installing anything?
Yes, two ways: open the official site in your TV's browser if it has one, or cast / screen-mirror from your phone over the same Wi-Fi. A native install still gives the smoothest, most remote-friendly experience.
Do I need a mouse to use NetMirror on a TV?
For the native app, no — it is built to navigate with a remote. A USB or Bluetooth mouse only helps with the browser method, where website controls can be awkward using a remote alone.
Does NetMirror work on a Fire TV Stick?
Yes. The Fire TV Stick runs a version of Android, so you sideload the APK in a similar way using a downloader app. See our dedicated Fire TV guide for the exact steps.
