Install Zoom, Teams, Meet on Android TV
Zoom is a popular video conferencing app available on Android, iOS, and Windows. In the post COVID-19 era, many people rely on it for learning, communication, and video calls. While Zoom is easily accessible on Android and iPhone devices, it can also be viewed on a big screen TV using Sony Sharp Android TV or Xiaomi’s Mi Box as a viewer client. Although the Zoom app is not directly available on the Google Play Store for TV, this doesn’t prevent us from utilizing it.
