How it works

    Start Dropyk on the TV. You'll see a QR code.

    Choose files or paste a link — they appear on the TV right away.

What it does

The TV receiving a 250 MB video with a progress bar

Big files, straight to disk

Pick one file or a hundred; they go one by one. A 4 GB film never passes through the TV's memory, and the page checks free space first.

A received video with Watch and Done buttons and the folder it was saved to

One press with the remote

The TV offers what to do: a video plays, an APK installs, a photo shows on screen, a link opens.

DownloadsEverything in Download/Dropyk.
By typeVideos in Movies/Dropyk, photos in Pictures/Dropyk, music in Music/Dropyk, the rest in Download/Dropyk.

You choose where files go

Switch it on the phone page; the phone remembers. Sorted by type, players and galleries find files where they look first.

Install

  1. Download dropyk.apk.
  2. Copy it to the TV with the Downloader app, a USB stick, or adb install dropyk.apk.
  3. Allow and open. When the TV asks, allow installing from that source, then open Dropyk from the app list.
