Just like your smartphone, your smart TV offers a connected experience and apps are how you make the most of it. Whether it's streaming the latest shows and movies, playing games or pulling up information about the world around you, there are hundreds, even thousands, of apps available to you that will work with your Android TV.

1. Open the Google Play store. To find and install apps for your Android TV, you will use the Google Play app store. Just like your phone, you will be greeted with menus full of apps, and given tools to search and find just what you want.

2. Accept Terms of Service. If this is your first time logging in to the Google Play Store, you will need to accept the terms of service associated with it. These are not significantly different than the terms of service offered on your other smart devices, but you can review the details on screen before accepting.

3. Look through options. The main screen of the Google Play Store offers a number of highlighted apps, and several rows of featured apps, divided into various categories. Individual apps are represented by large tiled icons, with bright logos and eye-catching graphics.

You can also read customer reviews to learn whether other users of the app are satisfied with the experience.

6. Install the app. Once you've made your decision, you can install the app by pressing the install button. This will begin downloading and installing the app, and a progress bar will show you how far along into the installation process you are.
