There are millions upon millions of hours of free content available on Android TV boxes. Unfortunately, it’s not always clear where to find it.
Having recently bought an Android 9.0 TV Box Amlogic for large-code streaming video, many apps are available that either offer free TV and movies or which allow you to build your own catalogue. Here are the best Android TV box apps in Canada to check out.

YouTube
Though YouTube comes preloaded on many Android boxes, we shouldn’t discount it. There’s something on YouTube for everyone, whether you’re a musician, car enthusiast, tiny home aficionado, beauty lover, or movie-watcher.
Netflix
So obvious but so needed. Arguably, there’s no better streaming option on a smart TV box than Netflix. Browse all sorts of TV and movie content in various languages from all over the world as well as some of the most popular series of all-time.
Twitch
Unlike Netflix, Twitch is completely free. The Twitch app is an opportunity to watch live programming from gamers and other broadcasters.
KODI
KODI is an open-source media player that lets you play content off your Android phones, computers and laptops, or other devices. KODI itself comes with many add-ons and plugins including a lot of free content out there. Although it can be more complex to use for the inexperienced, once you know your way around KODI on your Android box, there’s a lot to explore here.
CBC
CBC has several apps depending on what you’re into i.e. news, television shows, etc. Free programming on CBC includes shows from all over the world as well as Canadian favourites including Murdoch Mysteries, Schitt’s Creek, Dragons’ Den, and more.
CTV
CTV offers another great app where you can watch previews of shows yet to be aired and re-watch shows you may have missed. Although not as full as CBC’s programming slate, CTV’s collection of unique content can’t be found anywhere else.
Global
Like CTV and CBC, if you’re buying an Android TV box in Canada, you want your Global app installed. You get a wide range of programming available exclusively through Global, such as Saturday Night Live, Late Night with Stephen Colbert, and more.
Plex
Plex is very similar to KODI. It is a media center that allows you to load in media you’ve downloaded and create your own library of shows, movies, and more. For those who enjoy downloading and keeping media on hard drives, an app like Plex alone can make buying an Android box worth it.
These are just some of the basics of how to use an Android TV box. On any TV, an Android box provides you the chance to tap into a wealth of content completely free over-the-Internet. Choose yours today at PrimeCables.ca.
