Download Cinema HD for Smart TV (Android TV, Box, Samsung, Sony, HTC, Vu, Oneplus TV, etc.)

[METHOD #1 – DOWNLOADER]

Simply put, this is the simplest method to sideload the Cinema HD app on Android TVs. This method uses a third-party file manager so-called “Downloader By AFTNews”. It helps you to download the Cinema HD APK file to your TV with just a few clicks.

We can’t download apk files to TVs directly from the web other than Play Store. But it is possible with the Downloader app. What is the best thing about it;

  • Inbuilt Browser: You can visit any website like 3rd party apk stores, blogs, Internet searching, and more.
  • Downloading files: Save app-related files to the TV’s local storage.
  • Installing Apps: It allows us to install apps other than Play Store apps on smart televisions.
  • TV’s File Manager: Explore and browse files, photos, videos, and all media content on TV

Without further delay, let’s get into the step-by-step guide.

1. Open the Play Store on your Android TV. (Long-press on the home button on the TV remote)

2. In the Search box, enter the “Downloader” and click on Downloader by AFTNews from the search results.

Search for Downloader

3. Press install.

4. Once the installation is done, press “Open” the Downloader application.

How to Download and Install Cinema HD on Smart TV

[METHOD #2 – ES FILE EXPLORER]

As you already know this method is strictly allowed to be used by Android smart TV users only. Other tv users may follow a separate guide, you can find them on our blog or above links.

There are a few simple steps to follow without fail. Please don’t go to other websites to download this apk because it can be downloadable here. So, it would be a cakewalk for you to download. But installation may be tricky. You need to follow the guide till the end and I discussed everything about it.

Let’s start with the step-by-step instructions…

Your Android TV must be connected to strong Internet.

Part 1: Unknown Sources

  • On your smart TV, allow the installation of unknown apps.
  • To do this, Go to Settings >> Security & Restrictions.
Smart TV Settings
  • Turn on the “Unknown Sources” option.
Unknown Source in Android TV
  • Turn off the “Verify Apps” option.

Part 2: File Manager/Browser

In this part, you’ll need to download the Cinema HD app to your Smart TV. It is not that much easy as downloading this app to mobiles. Because our smart TVs don’t support to users of the Google Chrome web browser.

In this case, we have to use a good File Manager which can also support downloading files from the web. As per sources, ES File Explorer is the best File Manager for Smart TV.

  • Go to Menu, find Google Play Store, and open it.
  • Search for “ES File Explorer File Manager”. Hit the “Install” button.
Install ES File Explorer on TV
  1. Open the ES File Explorer app and visit the “favorite” option.
  2. Now, click on the “Add” button.
Add favorite
  1. Enter “Cinema HD TV” in the name field.
  2. Enter “https://cinemahd.app/cinemahd-v3.4.1.apk” in the path field. (Without quotes).
Add Cinema HD path
  1. Again, click on “add”.
  2. Now, revisit the favorite section and look for the Cinema HD TV bookmark.
  3. Click on it to start the installation. Follow the on-screen steps and complete the installation.
  4. Done.

To find Cinema HD on TV, please visit the Apps or Installed Apps section.

Since there are different ways to find the Cinema HD app on TV, I will show you how with just a simple guide. This tutorial is unique and works for any smart tv with Android OS.

Do these methods only exist? Yes, because here we only use online resources that can be accessed easily without any additional costs involved in it!

FAQs

Is it safe for my TV to use these methods?

Absolutely safe, we have used both file managers to sideload the app which is from Play Store only. The apk file is from a third-party source but doesn’t have any malware. It’s a secure app.

How to update Cinema HD on Smart TV?

Whenever a new version is available, you will get an update notification so that you can update the app automatically. If you can’t do this automatically, go for the manual update by uninstalling the old version and installing it with the new version.

Should I need to use Firestick?

When you have an Android smart TV then you don’t need to buy an Amazon Firestick. If you already have a Firestick then check this guide here to install Cinema HD on Firestick.

    As stated by others, the ES file wasn’t available, I downloaded “Downloader” by AFTnews.com, I typed in the the url provided above (https://cinemahd.app/cinemaapk-release-2.3.7.3.apk ) and made sure the security settings allowed for download on TV and it took me seconds to install along with updates!

    Wow so here y’all after hours of trying to figure out how to do this, when finally finding out that the file manager told on this site no longer exists and then finding an app call “send files to my tv” on the play store on my android smart tv I downloaded it on both my tv and cell and let me tell you it was so quick and easy to send cinemahd to my tv. It took less than a few seconds to receive. Hope this helps other in the future who have had the same headache I did and help save others from having the same headache I did. Best wishes and better luck with this. 😊
