How to Install PikaShow on Smart TV – Full Guide 2026

Watching movies and live sports on a big Smart TV screen is a completely different experience compared to a small phone screen. PikaShow can be installed on Smart TVs and gives you free access to thousands of movies, live channels and sports on your large display. In this guide, we will show you exactly how to install PikaShow on different types of Smart TVs.

Which Smart TVs Support PikaShow?

PikaShow works on Smart TVs that run the Android TV or Google TV operating system. This includes many popular brands and models.

• Sony Bravia TVs with Android TV
• TCL TVs with Android TV or Google TV
• Philips Android TVs
• Hisense Android TVs
• Xiaomi Mi TVs
• OnePlus TVs
• Amazon Fire TV Stick (via sideloading)

Samsung and LG TVs use their own operating systems (Tizen and WebOS) and do not natively support Android APK files. For these TVs, you would need to use a separate Android TV stick or box connected to the TV.

Method 1 – Install via USB Drive

This is the most reliable method for installing PikaShow on an Android TV.

1. Download the PikaShow APK file on your computer from our download page
2. Copy the APK file to a USB drive
3. Insert the USB drive into your Smart TV
4. Open the File Manager app on your TV (most Android TVs have this built in)
5. Navigate to the USB drive and find the PikaShow APK file
6. Click on it to start the installation
7. Allow the installation from Unknown Sources if prompted

Method 2 – Install via Downloader App

Many Android TVs can use an app called Downloader to install APK files directly from the internet.

1. Install the Downloader app from the Google Play Store on your TV
2. Open Downloader and enter the PikaShow APK download URL
3. Download and install the APK directly on your TV

Method 3 – Send APK from Phone

If your Smart TV and phone are on the same WiFi network, you can use apps like Send Files to TV or similar file transfer apps to send the PikaShow APK from your phone to your TV wirelessly.

How to Enable Unknown Sources on Smart TV

Using PikaShow with a TV Remote

PikaShow is designed for touch screens but works well with TV remotes too. Use the directional buttons on your remote to navigate. The OK button selects items and the Back button goes to the previous screen. For easier navigation, you can also connect a Bluetooth mouse or a USB mouse to your Smart TV.
