I've side loaded it on mine. It works exactly the same as on the Mibox.Is anyone able to use Amazon Prime with their box? It's available and working on my Xiaomi MiBox but cannot find one for this Skyworth
Nope. Only saw an unofficial one on the Google Play Store.Does the box have apple tv as one of the apps to download by any chance?
Samsung do the same thing as do almost every TV manufacturer now adays https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2019/09/18/you-watch-tv-your-tv-watches-back/Spyware on Skyworth tv's?
But probably nothing too serious to worry about.

Chinese Smart TV-Maker Accused of Spying on Owners' Other Devices
Smart TVs made by Skyworth are sending user data and network information to an online database.www.rfa.org
Please drop us a mail at [email protected] for instructions. If the unit is freezing, there may be a reason other than the software, or it may simply need a factory reset as the storage has become inconsistent or full.Hi guys
Can anyone help me with the Android 9 upgrade for this box? Mine keeps freezing
I used to get that message but all I used to do was press a random direction button and it used to sink up automaticallyHey guys, my Dad's Skyworth TV Box's remote needs paring almost daily recently.
As if this is annoying enough it takes several tries to actually pair it again - needing to power off the box and then powering up again, sometimes several times as well before it pairs again.
Any suggestions as to what might be causing this and/or what can be done to resolve this please.
Also, I tried getting his Hisense tv remote to control the box using HDMI CEC but no luck here either - The TV does not pick up the box when doing a search. Note that I have the same TV as well which controls my TV box (not skyworth) perfectly.

Yeah, that used to do the trick until recently.I used to get that message but all I used to do was press a random direction button and it used to sink up automatically
have you tried updating the remotes firmware?Yeah, that used to do the trick until recently.
Now even holding in the 2 buttons does not pair the remote.
I actually thought he might be doing it wrong so I went there myself last night to try and even put in new batteries but no luck.
No I haven't... did you perhaps mean the box's firmware?have you tried updating the remotes firmware?
I can't remember exactly but you can access the remote settings via the settings menu.No I haven't... did you perhaps mean the box's firmware?
If you did mean the remote then how do I go about it?
Thanks. Will go have a look this weekend.I can't remember exactly but you can access the remote settings via the settings menu.
