By default, the Philips Smart TV system installs applications locally in its memory. This can make them error prone. For example, if you are using a streaming application like YouTube or Netflix, it may stop working or start caching.
You also have the option to install the APK file. When you add the APK file to your Philips Smart TV, it works great to provide you with the services you need, but sometimes these apps don't work when you use them.
