Your average user isn’t going to use a file browser to side load the latest update to their apps, they’d rather have it pushed out and update in the background silently. Fortunately for power users we have such great tools such as Solid Explorer. Till now it’s been seen as just a phone and tablet app. Then the developer of the app shared thoughts on an Android TV Version.

The following is a direct quote from a recent post:

As you already know I’m working on Android TV support. I’ve managed to adjust major remote control navigation issues, but I have to tell you that it’s still terrible.

Perhaps I should totally change the UI to match Android TV ecosystem? This will probably take months to complete, but when done you could enjoy all SE features packed into convenient and intuitive leanback interface. This approach, however, would make SE for Android TV paid separately.

Let me know what do you think.
