About this app

The powerful application manager for your TV and TV-boxes!

ADB TV: App Manager lets you easily manage your apps on Android TV using ADB (Android Debug Bridge) feature. After setting up the ADB connection, you will be able to disable (freeze) and uninstall* apps. Try it once and ADB TV will live permanently on your TV!

ONLY FOR ANDROID TV 8 and newer.
Other devices and emulators do not supported!

System requirements and initial setup must be completed for the application to work properly.

** Features: **
- NO ROOT REQUIRED.
- TV-adapted interface for remote control
- Enabling, disabling and uninstalling* applications using ADB
- Sorting app list by name, date and size
- Screen resolution manager
- Installing apk-files from external drives and remote devices.

From the developer: there are no third party ads in the app, and all basic features are available for free. Users who like my app can support me and get even more features in the PRO version.

Make complicated things simple.
Respectfully,

Ratings and reviews

This is a very useful app for debloating your TV. Just be careful what you disable. I managed to disable something that broke the TV and only the bootloader allowing a factory reset szved me. Also, buying PRO version keeps failing.

This is the easiest way to disable and uninstall pre-installed TV apps. I have a Panasonic TV which has a lot of factory catch-up TV apps which despite disabling in the Android settings, always get re-enabled after the TV is restarted. With this app the unwanted apps are disabled and stay disabled. I also used this on a Sony TV to disable a load of hidden Sony bloatware and background processes, which now has my TV running faster and more smoothly than it ever has.

A great app for Android to allow permissions on apps
