Castle APK for Android TV: Sony, Xiaomi, TCL, Mi Box, Nvidia Shield (2026)

Castle APK works on Android TV because Android TV runs Android. If your television or box runs Android TV or Google TV, you can install the app directly. The genuine app is version v2.1.3, the file is 36 MB, and it needs Android 5.0 or higher.

Castle APK is a free HD streaming app with Bollywood, Hollywood and South Indian movies, web series, live cricket and 5,000+ live TV channels. Download it only from the Castle APK homepage, and check the version (v2.1.3) and size (36 MB) after downloading to spot fake copies.

Devices Covered

• Mi Box S (Xiaomi Mi Box)
• Nvidia Shield (Shield TV and Shield TV Pro)
• Chromecast with Google TV
• Sony, Xiaomi and TCL televisions running Android TV or Google TV

Important: Samsung televisions running Tizen and LG televisions running webOS cannot install APK files directly, because they do not run Android. If you have a Samsung or LG TV, use one of these honest workarounds instead: plug in a Firestick or Mi Box (see Castle APK on Firestick), cast from your phone to the TV, or connect a PC to the TV with an HDMI cable.

3. Plug the USB drive into your TV or box.

4. On the TV, open a file manager, find the received file, and select Install.

After Installing

• Open Castle APK from your TV’s Apps row.
• Use your TV remote to browse. If some buttons are hard to reach, a USB mouse or an air mouse remote makes navigation much easier.
• Keep your TV’s software updated so the app keeps working smoothly.
• If a stream buffers, clear the app cache: Settings > Apps > Castle APK > Clear Cache.
