How to download apps on a sharp tv

Current televisions have the possibility of being able to install applications to be able to watch content transmitted over the internet such as Netflix, Disney +, Rakuten TV or other types of applications to consult information and even video games to be able to play on the Sharp television itself.

Although most Sharp televisions come with some apps installed, it is normal that they do not come with all the applications that we need or would like to have. Fortunately, Sharp smart TVs have an internet connection and enough internal memory to be able to install additional applications through their application store.

Use the search engine or navigate through the page to find your Sharp TV model to find the tutorial and download and install applications on your TV.
