Apps2Samsung is a sideloading utility for Samsung Tizen televisions, projectors and smart monitors. It handles device discovery, developer certificates and package installation for community apps such as Jellyfin, Moonlight, TizenTube and Litefin, as well as user-built .wgt files. The program removes the need for Tizen Studio and manual command-line work while keeping a record of every installed title.
The tool reads the package list from a connected set, displays real launcher icons, and allows launching, stopping or removing any application. It functions as a network remote over Samsung's own channel, injects IPTV playlists and custom icons during installation, and exports settings plus certificates to a single file for transfer between machines. Debug logs stream to a console that can be saved or inspected live.
Support covers thirty languages selected from the system locale and switchable without a restart. Errors appear in plain language, with detection for VPN conflicts, subnet mismatches and certificates that are not yet valid. The project is MIT-licensed, hosted on GitHub, updated through an in-app mechanism, and offers an optional beta channel for early builds.
