Smart YouTube TV

Smart YouTube TV helps when your smart TV or Android TV box does not include Google Services or the official YouTube app. It offers a free, open-source client you can sideload to watch videos on large screens. The app was created by independent developer Yuriy Lyskov and is no longer actively maintained, so compatibility may vary. Even so, it follows a familiar TV layout and focuses on simple remote navigation. The Smart YouTube TV APK makes installation straightforward for users who prefer external sources.
