How do I add applications to my Philips Google TV?

To add applications (beyond those that were pre-installed) to your Philips Google TV, you will need to be connected to the internet and signed into your Google Account. If you setup your Philips Google TV as a Google TV (and not a Basic TV) and connected it to both your network AND a Google account during initial setup, skip to the next section.

If you chose not to connect your TV to the Internet, and/or to a Google Account during initial setup (you setup as Basic TV and not Google TV and/or skipped the internet setup), you will need to do both now. To do so, follow these instructions:
 

1. Press the home button on the remote control (it has an outline of a house on it).
2. Using the thumb pad on the remote control, navigate to the Blue Icon with a Gear on it labeled “Dashboard” and then select it by pressing “OK”
3. You will see a popup dashboard and should find that “Settings” is already highlighted. Select “Settings” by pressing “OK” on the remote
4. “Set up Google TV” should be highlighted on screen. Select it by again pressing “OK” on your remote
5. You will see a screen allowing a choice of “Set up Google TV” or “Continue using basic TV” and “Set up Google TV” will be highlighted.
6. Press the OK button to begin the setup of Google TV.
7. At this stage you can setup the TV by either using the remote or by using the Google Home App on your phone.
   1. Using the App is easier, and it is the default option. To do so, open the Google Home app on your phone and select “Setup Google TV device”
      1. Then follow the instructions on your phone and on the TV to complete setup of both internet and Google Account.
      2. This method is faster because the Google Home App will copy over your wireless settings and your Google Account and you will not have to type the passwords, etc.
   2. To use the remote instead, you will need to navigate down and highlight “Setup on TV instead” You will note that this option cautions that this method may take longer and will require typing with the TV remote. If you wish to do so, press OK on the remote after navigating to the "Set up on TV instead" option and caution.
      1. The TV will walk you through connecting to your network and adding a Google Account.
      2. If you had already set up internet, your already connected Network and Password will be entered for you so you will not have to type those in again
