Can the Fitbit app run on Android TV boxes?

[Castalla]

I would like to install fitbit on an android tv box.

What android version would be suitable? 

Has anyone done this successfully?

Hello @Castalla and welcome to the Help forums.  This is a really interesting idea.  I can't say that I have done it or tried it as I am not an Android user.  My first thought is that you can't do it.  Is Fitbit even available if you search apps?  Even if you could, I think you would be disappointed.  The app is optimized for a portrait view.  The TV screen dimensions are a landscape view.

I am moving this to the Android forum.  Some other users might have thoughts on this.

Theoretically it should be possible - sideload the app.  Whether it runs is a different matter - I tried on a Mi TV but it failed to install.  In contrast, the Amazfit Zepp app installed and ran.

I suspect it will depend on which android versions are used by the various boxes.

@Castalla   Can you navigate from page to page?  Navigation requires touchscreen on your phone.  I think there are a lot of users who would like this.  Not for viewing basic app data, but for showing workouts on a larger screen.

 Do you find Fitbit in the play store?
