For me it also works with native apps like Netflix, Prime, Disney+ etc. The only app it is not working for is the ZiggoGo app for some reason. ---

Hello all, I don’t have as much time to spend on this as I’d like but rest assured fixes are coming. It took me a while because I was trying to get some of the issues fixed in the NPM package that this app depends upon. However I couldn’t get any response from the maintainer. I’ve since removed the dependency and incorporated the Android Remote API client in the Homey app fixing some of the issues that you are all running in to. The infinite crash loop should be fixed. Please note that your Android TV device might still be unavailable, but it will no longer crash the entire app. I’ll also try and add more documentation explaining why your device might be marked as unavailable. In most cases a hard reboot (completely powering down) of the Android TV device will fix a crashed Remote Service, which is what the Homey app talks to. Next on the list is trying to get the memory usage down, after that I might have a look at new features. ---

New version (v0.5.1) now available [as the test version](https://homey.app/en-gb/app/codes.lucasvdh.android-tv/test). This version adds: - a repair flow for when TV was unpaired - a refactor of the `androidtv-remote` dependency to an internal TypeScript module to fix issues, improve performance and allow for more control and flexibility. - removed unused packages for a lower memory usage It fixes: - the infinite crash loop when TV is unavailable And two new sections have been added to the FAQ docs: - [Why is my device unavailable?](https://homey-android-tv.gitbook.io/en/overview/faq#why-is-my-device-unavailable) - [Why is my Android TV not found?](https://homey-android-tv.gitbook.io/en/overview/faq#why-is-my-android-tv-not-found) ---

A new version (v0.5.2) [was just released to stable](https://homey.app/en-gb/app/codes.lucasvdh.android-tv/). This version : - fixes a “device not found” error crashing the app when an unpaired message is received - removes unused dependencies reducing the app’s size from 25 to 5mb This version seems to fix the last bug I was receiving. @Mariomark1541 is your app working again, if not could you please [manually submit a diagnostic report](https://support.homey.app/hc/en-us/articles/360013177034-Creating-a-Diagnostics-Report-ID-for-Homey-Pro)? ---

@Dennis_Moonen sadly, probably not. The Android TV app relies on Chromecast for device discovery, but not every Chromecast-enabled device will necessarily be compatible with this app. Unfortunately, I haven’t yet found a way to effectively filter the discovered devices. To determine if the app will work with your setup, here’s a helpful rule of thumb: If you’re able to install the [Android TV Remote Service](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.tv.remote.service) on your device, then it should work seamlessly with the Android TV app for Homey. Hope this helps clarify the situation! If you have any further questions or run into any issues, feel free to ask. Good luck! 👍 ---

Hey everyone, I’m thrilled to tell you about what inspired the Android TV app. At first, I planned to make a post, but then I realized it might be even better to show you a real example of what the app can do. So, here’s a lively use case that really brings it to life. > **[Saving energy](https://homey-android-tv.gitbook.io/en/examples/saving-energy)** > > Save Energy with the Android TV App for Homey and an NVIDIA Shield _(Please note that I haven’t added the English flow examples yet)._ Feel free to share any thoughts or suggestions you have.

Nice! But… Standby of tv’s is 50 to 100 watt??? That’s really not true… A modern tv only consumes 0,5 watt in standby… There is even a European law that says that a TV may not use a lot more than that. So, the example is nice, but the data is not correct. > **[Televisie: tips voor je scherm en decoder](https://www.milieucentraal.nl/energie-besparen/apparaten-in-huis/televisie/#:~:text=In%20de%20'gewone'%20standby%2D,een%20quick%2Dstart%20functie%20heeft)** > > Kies en kijk bewust televisie: een groter scherm en hoge beeldkwaliteit betekent meer milieu-impact.

That might be true for newer TV’s but my old Philips TV has a massive power consumption when in standby 🙂 I’ll look into updating the example to reflect newer TV’s though, Thanks for the feedback! ---
