Hello,

The Apps works fine in my case on Philips Android. Thanks you !

However, when I display an image, the accents no longer seem to work. When I view a message without an attachment, it works perfectly. Is this a problem on my side?

Thank you, have a nice day

Hi,  
Not sure of this is latest beta, but perhaps this is useful:

Good luck

Did anyone get this working? I used this repo, but didn’t worked: [GitHub - desertblade/PiPup: Enhanced notifications for Android TV](https://github.com/desertblade/PiPup?tab=readme-ov-file) (I did not did “_On Android TV (8.0+), when sideloading, you will need to set the permission for SYSTEM\_ALERT\_WINDOW manually (using adb) as there is no interface on Android TV to do this.”_ as I wasn’t sure if it is always required?, since I already enabled _“Draw over other apps permission: Permission required to create an overlay”_)

Also tried the newer version [GitHub - gugutab/TvOverlay](https://github.com/gugutab/TvOverlay), but I think it is not supported?

@Michel_van_Lier I have created a Homey App for TvOverlay

I also created a new APK from the source of PiPup you can download it from my GitHub page:
