Android Question Android TV and B4A

[Daniel Salomone]

Hello, sorry if this is not the correct place to post this question. I've done some developments using B4A to be used on phones with no problems, now I face the need to develop something that should run on an Android TV. My basic question is that if is it possible to develop, install and run an application using B4A to run on Android TVs. Any experiences? Any tips?
Thank you in advance
Regards
Daniel

You will probably have no problems - I was able to install a B4A app on my Amazon Fire Stick 4k with no problems (using B4A bridge).

If you mean ordinary Android apps, yes most of them can easily be installed (and/or sideloaded).
If you want to develop an app using the Android TV framework, then I think B4A is missing some support out of the box and would require some wrappers (or using inline java/javaObject).

You need Leanback to develop Android TV native app.
