Samsung Smart TVs run on Tizen, Samsung's own operating system, which affects which IPTV player apps are available directly on the TV.
Checking app availability
Not every IPTV player app is published on the Tizen app store, and availability can vary by TV model year and region. Check your TV's app store directly, or see our Smart TV setup guide for general guidance.
If a compatible app isn't available
Connecting a Firestick, Android TV box, or similar streaming device via HDMI gives you access to a wider range of apps regardless of your Samsung TV's built-in store. See our workarounds guide for the full explanation.
Tips for a smoother experience
Keeping your TV's software updated can improve both app availability and performance over time, since manufacturers periodically add support for newer apps.
