Build · Android TV App Development

The same screen, a different remote.

Android TV reaches millions of sets, each with a D-pad, a voice button and a certification bar to clear.


Overview

Android TV and Google TV run on millions of sets and streaming boxes, and each one expects clean D-pad navigation, voice and a certified build. We engineer Leanback-compliant applications with ExoPlayer media and Google Assistant integration for streaming, fitness and signage. The set in the corner is unglamorous and unforgiving, which is exactly why it is built carefully.

What it includes

The work, named plainly.

01

Leanback, as intended

Browse, detail and playback screens built with the Leanback library and Compose for TV, following Android TV conventions.

02

Voice as a route in

App Actions and deep links let Assistant launch content and control playback by voice, a real entry point, not a gimmick.

03

Streamed and protected

ExoPlayer pipelines handle DASH, HLS and SmoothStreaming with DRM, so the content arrives at quality and stays secured.

04

Kept on the home row

Recommendation rows and Watch Next integration keep the content visible where the viewer starts.

How we work

Engineered once. Maintained indefinitely.

  1. 01 Audit the content strategy and define navigation for D-pad remote and game controller.
  2. 02 Build the interface with Leanback and Compose for TV, with clean focus transitions.
  3. 03 Implement ExoPlayer with adaptive bitrate, offline caching and DRM licensing.
  4. 04 Add Assistant actions for voice-driven discovery and playback control.
  5. 05 Test across Android TV devices and form factors against Google TV certification.
  6. 06 Submit to the Play TV category with the right banner and feature assets.
