Hello,

I have a Philips 65PUS6704/12 TV and I can't find the Google Play Store anywhere to download apps.
Can you help me?
The app gallery on the smart TV doesn't have anything interesting.

Thank you in advance

Configuration: Windows / Firefox 64.0

Hello,
Here's what I usually respond to this topic:
When it comes to apps, manufacturers and broadcasters do what they want. Personally, I have an LG; at first, I had an Orange app that gave access to a lot of radios, but that app was deleted without warning during an update. For replay, I had Pluzz (public replay service) and Arte +7, both of which have also disappeared. As for MyTF1, I only have paid VOD. On the M6 replay site, I am asked to download a "player," but "download impossible." It's all a matter of agreements with the app owners and the TV brand, a question of money, so not so smart these TVs, huh? ...;-(
And Arte came back some time ago... go figure...
And:
"Smart TVs connected to the internet usually also offer access to applications (sometimes also called 'Widgets'). Currently, the applications offered vary depending on the brand and the TV, and within the same brand, some applications may only be accessible on certain models."
