Install the Smart App from your Device's App Store

Most smart TVs and streaming devices have an app store that is provided by the device manufacturer and built into the device. For Android-powered smart TVs and streaming devices, the Smart app should be generally available at launch. However, due to the number of devices on the market, it is impossible to know if the app will appear in your device's app store.

Take these steps to install the Smart app from the app store built into your smart TV or streaming device:

  1. On your smart TV or streaming device, open the device’s app store.

Troubleshooting Smart App Installation on Android Devices

IF…

THEN…

The Smart app does not appear when you searched the device’s app store or library

Use a PC or mobile device to open Google Play and search for the app there. For instructions, click here.

The error message “This Google account is not yet associated with a device” appears

Go to https://play.google.com/library/devices and add your smart TV or steaming device to your devices list.

The error message “This app is not available for your device” appears

Go to https://play.google.com/library/devices and see if your smart TV or streaming device is listed there. If not, check your other Google accounts to see if the device is listed on another account.

If the Smart app still does not install, contact Mersive customer support.

Install the Smart App from your PC or Mobile Device via Google Play

The Smart app is available through Google Play. Once you add an app to your Google account, you can install it on multiple devices provided they are on the same Google account. So, if you are installing Smart on multiple devices that are all on the same Google account, this method would be much faster than installing the app one smart TV or streaming device at a time.

Take these steps to install the Smart app from Google Play using a PC or mobile device:

  1. Go to play.google.com on a PC or open the Google Play Store on a mobile device.

  2. Select Apps.

  • Adjust Speaker Volume: When content with audio is being shared, ensure you've turned up the volume on your smart TV.
