Can I Use ReVanced on Android TV?
ReVanced Manager is not designed for Android TV. The Manager's interface requires a touchscreen, and the patching process is optimized for mobile devices. However, community members have reported limited success with sideloading patched APKs from a phone to a TV.
Best Alternative: SmartTube
SmartTube (formerly SmartTubeNext) is the recommended ad-free YouTube client for Android TV and Amazon Fire Stick. It is purpose-built for TV interfaces and includes:
- Complete ad-blocking on YouTube
- SponsorBlock integration
- Return YouTube Dislike
- 4K HDR playback support
- Google account sign-in
- Remote-friendly TV interface
SmartTube is open-source and available on GitHub. See our SmartTube vs ReVanced comparison.
