You don’t need a high-end TV Box to enjoy Netflix on the big screen. Generally, its Android TV compatible app runs smoothly on most certified Android devices.
However, on devices with old versions of the Google operating system, there may be problems downloading the application from the Play Store or even preventing login, among others.
Why doesn’t Netflix work on a TV Box?
This mainly occurs on Android TV Box devices that have no longer received Android updates higher than version 7.1.2 or are not capable of receiving it due to being outdated.
How to fix Netflix not working on a TV Box with Android 7.1.2?
Fortunately, there is a very simple solution and it involves downloading a version of the Netflix app that is compatible with the problematic device.
In addition, it is a very safe procedure, since the download is made from the Netflix site itself and is applied to devices with Android versions between 4.4.2 and 7.1.2. These are the steps you must follow.
First, uninstall the current version of Netflix from your device.
Next, go to Settings > Security and enable the option to install apps from unknown sources.
Then, open your internet browser and open this link (APK).
Run the APK to install the version of Netflix compatible with your TV Box. Then log in as usual.
