I recently discovered Mrowser⁠, an open-source Android TV browser with native ExoPlayer support, built-in ad blocking, and D-pad mouse navigation.
I think it has the potential to become a great alternative to TV Bro, especially with community support.

Give it a try, report bugs, and suggest improvements to help the developer make it even better!

Hello,

I'm advising an older relative on setting up a cheap streaming device. The apps on their cheap Bush TV are useless as keep freezing up. So I suggested a cheap streaming box/stick would be better. £20-40 budget ideally.

They don't really use BBC iPlayer, but they do use itvx, channel 4, channel 5, Netflix, Disney. I'd also like to be able to side load SmartTube and Stremio. I'd have to do this over the phone, and as these auto update themselves, once loaded they can forget about them. Regularly side loading apps and updating them, will be too stressful for them.

The Onn 4K box looked great, £19.35 on eBay. But the major issue seems to be it's a US device, so loading UK catch-up services seems tricky. Ideally I don't want to have to get them to use adaptor plugs either, as they'd be worried about fire risk! I know you can power some devices with a USB cable, so that's fine.

Any advice on a cheap UK compatible fairly simple box/stick would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers
