      Since it’s android you can make it work how you want it to.

      Install a different launcher, like Projectivy and you can make your homescreen exactly what you want, no cluttered mess of ads

      Get SmartTube for youtube

      change what your buttons do with TVQuickActions

      My dirt-cheap $20 walmart Android TV box now looks nothing like it did when I first booted it. Completely customized to how I want it to work. I even have it set up so my Disney button makes my livingroom lights dim for movies.

        i still need to purchase an extra device, since my tv runs on version 4 or something like that.

        might as well use something that’s REALLY customizable. but i will definetely consider an ATV box.
