NetMirror TV APK

NetMirror TV is the NetMirror app running on your television instead of your phone. It's not a separate app. You install the same NetMirror APK on an Android TV, a Google TV box or an Amazon Firestick, and then control it with your remote. This page covers each type of TV, how to move around with a remote, and what to do when the TV won't install or play.

What You Need Before You Start

• A TV that runs Android TV or Google TV, or a Firestick plugged into any TV

• An internet connection, ideally Wi-Fi of 5 Mbps or more for HD

• About 100 MB of free space on the TV

• Your remote

Got a Samsung or LG smart TV? NetMirror TV needs Android. These run their own systems , not Android, so APK files won't install on them. You can still watch by plugging in a Firestick, casting from your phone, or opening the web version in the TV's browser. More on that further down.

Install NetMirror TV on Firestick

Amazon only lets you install apps from its own store unless you give permission. A free app called Downloader helps you get around that safely.

• Get Downloader

  From the Firestick home screen, go to Find, search for "Downloader", and install the one with the orange icon.

• Turn on Developer Options

  Open Settings and pick My Fire TV. If you don't see Developer Options in that list, open About and click on your Fire TV's name seven times in a row. A message will tell you that you're now a developer. Press back once.

• Allow Downloader

  Now open Developer Options, choose "Install unknown apps", and switch it on for Downloader.
  

• Download the file

  Open Downloader, select the address box and type netmirror.up.in. Press Go. When our page loads, move down to the download button and press it.

• Install

  When the download finishes, a pop-up asks if you want to install. Choose Install. It takes around half a minute. Then choose Done

• Clean up

  Downloader offers to delete the APK file. Say yes. The app stays installed, and you free up space.
  You'll find NetMirror TV under Your Apps & Channels. Press and hold its icon to move it to the front row so it's easy to reach.

Install on Android TV and Google TV

The steps depend a little on your TV brand (Sony, TCL, Mi, OnePlus, Hisense and others), but the idea is the same.

• • Open the Google Play Store on your TV and install Downloader.
  • Turn on developer mode. Open Settings, go to System, then About, and click "Android TV OS build" seven times. On some older TVs this option is under Device Preferences.
  • Go back to Settings and find the security option under Apps. It may be called "Security & restrictions" or "Unknown sources". Allow Downloader to install apps.
  • Open Downloader, type netmirror.up.in, and download the file from our page.
  • Choose Install, then Open.

Using NetMirror TV with a Remote

NetMirror TV looks like the phone app, just stretched across a big screen.

• Arrow keys move between posters and rows.

• The middle button opens a title or presses play.

• Back takes you to the previous screen. Press it during a video to see the controls.

• Fast forward and rewind keys, if your remote has them, skip through a video.

Some menus are made for touch screens, so you may need a few extra clicks to reach them. If the app opens in portrait mode or a button is hard to reach, a free mouse toggle app can give you an on-screen pointer.

Watch on a TV That Can't Install APKs

Not every TV runs Android. Here are your choices:

Fixes for TV Problems

• • "Install unknown apps" is missing. Developer Options aren't turned on yet. Go back to step 2 and click the device name seven times.
  • Download stuck at 0%. Check that the TV is connected to the internet. Restart the Firestick by holding Select and Play together for five seconds, then try again.
  • App installed but not showing. Open Your Apps & Channels on Firestick, or the apps section on Android TV. New apps go to the end of the list.
  • Video stutters on the TV but not on the phone. TV boxes often have weak Wi-Fi. Move the router closer, use a 5 GHz network, or connect an Ethernet cable if your box supports it. You can also lower the quality during playback.
  • Not enough storage. Older Firesticks have little space. Delete apps you don't use and clear the cache of the ones you keep.
