Troubleshooting

BrowseHere isn’t on my TCL TV

  • Confirm your TV is a TCL Google TV / Android TV model. BrowseHere isn’t supported on TCL Roku TVs.
  • Check Google Play Store again and search “BrowseHere.”
  • Restart your TV, then try the search again.

Websites don’t load or are slow

  • Make sure your TV is connected to the internet.
  • Try a different website (some pages don’t display well on TV browsers).
  • Close and reopen BrowseHere, or restart the TV.

A video won’t play in the browser

Some websites restrict playback in browsers. If a video won’t play, try another source or use a dedicated streaming app when available.
