Watching Thmanyah on smart TVs
Android TVs “Android TV / Google TV”
Some TVs run Google-certified Android TV / Google TV, while others run open-source variants. Certified devices typically provide better compatibility and clearer updates.
For the best viewing experience, we recommend TVs that:
✅ are Google-certified and run “Android TV / Google TV”
✅ run Android 8.0 or later
✅ are 2019 models or newer
You can find the Thmanyah app in your TV’s app store. Please search for “Thmanyah” and confirm that you can download and install it.
⚠️ Note: If your TV is unsupported, the OS is outdated, or Android was installed manually, you may see a message saying the app is not compatible. Even if installation succeeds, the app may crash due to limited memory or device specs.
Apple TVs “tvOS”
tvOS is Apple’s operating system designed for a big-screen viewing experience. It provides a streaming interface through apps, an App Store for apps and games, and supports features such as “4K HDR” and “Dolby Atmos.” To watch Thmanyah on Apple TV, you need:
- Minimum OS version: tvOS 16 or later
- Supported devices: The app supports all Apple TV models
- Controls: You can use Siri remotes and touchpad/trackpad controls as long as your Apple TV device supports them
Web-based TVs “webTV”
“WebTV” devices are smart TVs that rely on a browser-based environment and manufacturer app stores, so streaming performance may vary by OS and version. To ensure compatibility, update your TV’s OS to the latest version and make sure the app store on your TV is official and available in your region (the Arab world region).
Common compatibility guidance for watching Thmanyah:
- Samsung “Tizen”: 2019 models or later, or Tizen 3.0+
- LG “webOS”: webOS 5.0 or later, and the LG Content Store should include the Thmanyah app when you search for it. If it doesn’t appear, the store in your country likely doesn’t offer it, or your device OS isn’t supported.
- Hisense “VIDAA”: 2021 models or later
⚠️ Note: Operating systems like “Tizen”, “webOS”, and “VIDAA” are used by multiple TV brands. App behavior may vary from one device to another, even if the OS is the same. Therefore, we can’t guarantee identical behavior or full feature availability on devices outside the list above.
Streaming sticks “Streaming Stick”
These are small devices that plug directly into the TV via HDMI, turning a regular screen into a smart TV that can run apps and connect to the internet.
To run Thmanyah, the streaming stick must run Android 8.0 or later. If it runs an older version than 8.0, or a different OS altogether, you won’t be able to use the app.
⚠️ Note: Image clarity and viewing quality depend on the TV’s own display capabilities (resolution and panel quality). The streaming stick mainly enables access to the app and playback.
Game consoles “Gaming Console”
To run Thmanyah on PlayStation, you need a PS5 connected to the internet and a PlayStation Store account registered in one of the Gulf countries or Lebanon. Then, find the app in the Media section and sign in by scanning the QR code using your phone camera or a QR reader app.
