The Overflow Blog. Who owns this outage? Building intelligent escalation chains for modern SRE. Both essentially do the same thing.
The major change is that in current versions of Android and Android TV, you can enable or disable this setting for each individual app, which is awesome. For example, that means that if you want to enable it for Aptoide TV, but disable it for File Commander, you can do that. There are only two settings to change in this sub-menu: Unknown Sources and Verify Apps. Click on Unknown Sources to continue. Simply flip the toggle until it changes to blue to enable it, or flip it to gray to disable it.
Current versions of Android will let you do this from within the app. As far as permissions goes, this is about as simple as you can get. It needs this permission so it can install files. Once you click out of that box, the main Home screen is a simple search box that lets you enter a URL or search term. Until recently, you could only enter a URL into this field. However, in July , it was integrated with Google Search so you can actually enter in a keyword to search for.
So, when you typed in the URL on the home page, you needed the complete location of the file itself. Unfortunately, Google took some issues with having an integrated browser on Android TV and this was the best workaround for that.
It gives you instructions on how to download the browser plugin by going to browser. If we were installing anything that required special permissions, it would also allow us to approve or deny those here.
Click Done to return to the app. Yes…I know I literally just saw a message that told me the app was installed, but this still threw me off when I saw it the first time. I recommend Deleting the APK file to save space on your device.
However, if you want to keep it for whatever reason, click Done to return to the main menu. Navigating is super-easy. What I love is that you can navigate around without needing to change your remote to air-mouse mode — if you even have an air-mouse.
The red circle that you can see in this image under the word Accessibility in the title is your cursor. You can use the D-pad to navigate around the screen, up to the search bar or to the menu in the top-right corner. The menu options are also pretty basic. The most useful option is adding a webpage to your Favorites so you can return to it easily. Unsurprisingly, the Favorites tab on the side menu takes you a list of your web page favorites.
