Hi there

You should see in the apps list a Google Play store. This is where you can install other apps/games etc.

Cheers

@JimmyDiamond

did you set up your google account? If yes, just open up a playstore. If not, do that first.

Hi @Anonymous

When Language is set in my Region there are very few.

For example there are no apps at all @ Tools & Utilities

Strange thing is that when going back to region Language some of the previous found apps remain or can be more or less!!

When Language is set to English there are:

Home

7 apps -> Featured Apps. Back to region again gives 14

6 apps -> Movies+TV. Back to region again gives 16

20 aps -> Top Paid apps

20 apps -> Top Free apps

7 apps -> Featured Games. Back to region again gives 11

16 apps -> Enteraintnment Apps

7 apps -> Music Apps

34 apps -> TV Remote Games

20 Apps @ Media Apps

20 Apps @ Music Apps. Back to region again gives 7

20 Apps @ New Apps

15 Apps @ Tools & Utilities. Back to region again gives 0 (No results found)

Language

This could also be regional information according to your DNS servers, if not already Google's.

Hi,

Not sure how i would get to google play. This is a picture of all i have. No access to anything else. The manual is useless....

It looks like you don't have Android TV so no way to have google play there.
