Can’t Find Crunchyroll on Samsung TV? Here’s How to Get It
As an avid anime enthusiast, I was thrilled when I got my new Samsung TV. However, my joy quickly turned into frustration when I couldn’t find my beloved streaming service, Crunchyroll, anywhere. After a bit of digging, I discovered that Crunchyroll was no longer available on Samsung TVs. But don’t despair! In this comprehensive guide, I’ll walk you through all the possible solutions to get Crunchyroll on your Samsung TV.
Before we dive into the technicalities, let’s take a moment to understand why Crunchyroll might not be available on your Samsung TV. In 2019, Crunchyroll and Samsung ended their partnership, removing Crunchyroll from all Samsung Smart TVs. This abrupt change left many anime fans, including myself, searching for alternative ways to access their favorite shows.
Still No Crunchyroll? Try SmartThings
If none of the above methods have worked for you, don’t give up just yet. You can try using the SmartThings app, Samsung’s official remote control and home automation app for smartphones. SmartThings allows you to access a wide range of content, including apps that may not be available on your TV’s app store. To use SmartThings to get Crunchyroll:
1. Download and install the SmartThings app on your smartphone or tablet.
2. Connect your Samsung TV and smartphone to the same Wi-Fi network.
3. Launch the SmartThings app and click on the “Apps” tab.
4. Search for “Crunchyroll” in the app store within SmartThings.
5. Install the Crunchyroll app on your TV through the SmartThings app.
Once the Crunchyroll app is installed, you can launch it from the SmartThings app or directly from your TV’s home screen. This method has worked for many users who were unable to find Crunchyroll through the TV’s built-in app store.
