Installed? Add your TV service next. An account is optional: the TV shows a code to scan, so there's no typing with the remote.

On your phone?

On your TV, open Downloader and enter 2084371 for TiviGlass or 3817356 for TiviGlass².

More options and help

Update refused? Already have TiviGlass, and it will not update itself? If your TV says APK signing certificate mismatch, or that the update cannot be installed automatically, install the TiviGlass (TG1) APK above over the top. It keeps your playlists, profiles and recordings, and it only has to be done once: updates work normally afterwards. Affects some Fire TV devices on versions 2.1.2 and 2.1.3. Do not uninstall first.

Didn't work? Fixes for common problems

On any device

Downloader won't take the number
Type the address instead, in Downloader's address box (not a search box): https://tiviglass.com/apk for TiviGlass or https://tiviglass.com/tg2/apk for TiviGlass². Check the TV is online and select Go again.
"App not installed" or "There was a problem parsing the package"

TiviGlass needs Android 6.0 or newer (Fire OS 6 or newer): Android 5 devices, including Fire OS 5 sticks, refuse the file with exactly these messages. Some Fire TV devices run Vega OS, which can't run it at all. See Will it work on my device?

On a compatible device, check there is free storage and download the APK again from this page. Installing an older version over a newer one is refused too. If TiviGlass is already installed, contact support with the exact message before removing it: uninstalling or clearing app data can erase its settings, playlists and history.

Android or Play Protect warns about the app
Stop and keep the exact message for support. Don't turn security scanning off to force the install, and only download TiviGlass from this page.

On Fire TV

There's no Developer options menu
Open Settings › My Fire TV › About, highlight the device name and press Select on the remote seven times, then go back. You don't need ADB debugging.
There's no Install unknown apps switch
On some models it is called Apps from Unknown Sources.
The install is blocked, or there's a permissions error
The permission was given to a different app. Turn on Install unknown apps for Downloader itself, then try again.
I can't find Downloader
Search Find for Downloader by AFTVnews, the orange icon. It comes from the Amazon Appstore.
Downloader says the file can't be downloaded
Check the date and time on the Fire TV. Secure downloads fail when the clock is badly wrong.

Updating, or moving from another app

Both apps offer their own updates on the TV. To update by hand, download the same app again and install it over the top. Don't uninstall or clear app data first: your playlists, profiles and settings stay. A TiviGlass² update never replaces TiviGlass.

Coming from another player? TiviGlass comes with no channels: add the login your provider gave you, as the setup guide shows. Trying TiviGlass² after TiviGlass? See what comes with you.

TiviGlass and TiviGlass²: one account, two apps
  • Side by side. TiviGlass² is its own app. It installs next to TiviGlass and doesn't replace or change it, so you can keep both. They get the same features and updates; only the interface is different.
  • Your plan. Sign in with the same TiviGlass account. Free, Essentials and Premium work in both apps, with no extra charge for choosing the other interface.
  • Your TV services. On every plan, the TV services saved to your account come across when you sign in, so sign in to the same account in TiviGlass first. A playlist loaded from a file or pasted in stays on its TV: add it again in TiviGlass².
  • Favourites and your setup. Favourites, watch history, hidden and renamed channels, your own groups and settings come across with Cloud sync, part of Premium (see plans). On Free, set them up again in TiviGlass².
Will it work on my device?

TiviGlass needs Android 6.0 or newer, which on Amazon devices means Fire OS 6 or newer. It adapts to each device, from inexpensive boxes to powerful living-room hardware.

  • Works on: Amazon Fire TV (Fire TV Stick and supported Fire OS devices), Google TV (Chromecast and televisions with Google TV built in), Android TV (certified TVs, streaming boxes and operator devices), Nvidia Shield and compatible Amlogic or Rockchip boxes.
  • Phones and tablets: the same APK, installed the same way. Each app has one Android APK: its TV download also installs on Android phones and tablets. There is no separate mobile build to look for: the download here is the way to install it.
  • Android 5 devices, including Fire OS 5 sticks, can't install current versions: Android refuses the file with “App not installed” or “There was a problem parsing the package”.
  • Some Fire TV devices run Amazon's Vega OS instead of Fire OS, and the APK can't run on it. Check the operating system and exact model under Settings › My Fire TV › About; don't rely on the Fire TV name or a version number alone.
  • It doesn't run on Samsung (Tizen) or LG (webOS) televisions.
Other ways to install
  • Type the address into Downloader, or any browser on the device: https://tiviglass.com/apk for TiviGlass, https://tiviglass.com/tg2/apk for TiviGlass².
  • Download the file directly: TiviGlass APK or TiviGlass² APK.
  • From a USB drive, when Downloader isn't in your app store: on a computer, download the APK, copy it to a USB drive and plug it into the box. Open the file with the box's file manager and confirm the install.
Check it's the real TiviGlass

Only from tiviglass.com. The real TiviGlass downloads from this page, from tiviglass.com/apk or with Downloader code 2084371. For TiviGlass², use https://tiviglass.com/tg2/apk or Downloader code 3817356. Both apps are signed and offer their own updates. Copies on other sites can be modified. TiviGlass is a player: we never sell channels, playlists or IPTV subscriptions, so anyone selling channels as TiviGlass, or as an official TiviGlass service, is not us.

What's new: version history

These releases are for TiviGlass (TG1). TiviGlass² offers its own updates in the app: get it from Get the app above.
