Not that using the web is completely comfortable than on television, but there is certainly a time when you have felt the need to do so. To view a specific page, search directly on Google or why You didn't want to get out of bed to look for the phone, the reasons can be many. Or yes, Android TV has a problem with these types of applications: does not bring any browser as usual; even though there are options in the Play Store on TV.
The number of apps is not too high if you want a the best web browser for Android TV, at least in the store, but that's not the only way to have a good Internet application: from Google Chrome to Firefox, we have enough to choose from. And they're not too difficult to install on Android TV.
Let's get to this point:which web browsers are best on television and media players with Android TV? We have selected the following programs.
Puffin TV – Fast Web Browser
It is the best web browser you can find Searching in the Play Store on Android TV. Fully converted for TV remote control, it has favorites, content is generally uploaded and most of the stuff is redesigned on the screen. Puffin is based on Chromium (like almost all other browsers on this list) and has the problem that the version based on it is not the latest; of course sometimes it's not compatible with which websites.

TV Bro
Another Android TV web browser that can be downloaded from Google Play, however not compatible with all television and players. It offers a streamlined use for remote TV management and doesn't have too many interruptions over something right with options. However, it has preferences, voice control and also allows user & # 39; s choice of user agent & # 39; to cheat web pages by sending like another browser. Not a bad app.

Google Chrome
How can Google not install Chrome as a recommended app for Android TV? That's pretty amazing, but still: Not selected or downloaded from the Google Play store. Fortunately, it is possible to install Google Chrome on Android TV, just follow the following tutorial.
Google Chrome has not been completely changed for use with the TV remote since for most websites you need to use cursor (with a mouse or game control), but it doesn't involve too much distraction. Aside from that, Chrome works well on Android TV: it syncs the screen content well and uses the latest versions of the mobile browser, so avoiding page differences is inevitable. It also allows for desktop mode functionality.
Firefox for Fire TV
There is no error: we highlighted a Amazon Fire TVs web browser. And does that modified version of Firefox work just as well: just install the APK on the TV or player and browse. Its use is totally compatible with TV remote controls and provides the complete experience as easy as possible. In our opinion, the best app for what we want: use the web from the TV.
To install Firefox on your Android TV you must do the same with Google Chrome: download the APK file and use it on your TV or player.
- Install file Commander on your Android TV and Sideload Launcher.
- Download the latest version of Firefox TV from the Mirror APK web.
- Add an APK to your Google Drive, in a root folder.
- Open the File Commander on your Android TV and enter Drive from the file manager.
- Browse to the Commander of the file in the folder where you downloaded the Google Chrome APK and installed it. You will have to accept permission to install apps from outside of Google Play.
Firefox is well organized for use from a remote control, delivers pages quickly, provides good web compatibility, allows syncing of Firefox bookmarks and send pages to another Firefox browser. It works great.
