If on other occasions we have seen the best applications that you can install on a Smart TV based on Android TV or Google TV, today is the turn to review some of the coolest apps you can install on a Samsung TV based on Tizen.
Applications of all kinds that we can find in the application store, all free. There are those that offer access to video streaming services, free or by subscription, apps to know the weather, listen to music … Tools to complete those that are already pre-installed when we take the TV out of the box.
Pluto TV
We started with Pluto TV, an app that we have already talked about and that allows access to a huge number of channels, all free. Streaming television but away from the classic platforms that require a subscription.
Youtube

In exchange for receiving ads from time to time (we can avoid them by being premium), the YouTube version for Samsung Smart TV has support for subtitles and easy to control with the remote control of the TV.
Netflix
Now it’s time to talk about one of the most popular streaming services for movies and series. It is about Netflix, an application that It is almost a classic for a good number of users and that can be downloaded from the application store of the TV itself.
Prime Video
Another streaming video service is the one offered by Amazon with Prime Video. A catalog with different content from other platforms that makes perfect sense to Amazon Prime subscribers, as these are the ones who can access Prime Video without paying anything extra.
HBO
While waiting for the arrival of HBO Max, HBO “just” is another streaming service that we can find in the application store. It has some of the most renowned series of the last years and offers a single price of 8.99 euros per month and an operation traced to that of the other platforms.

Apple TV + original content is accessible if you have an individual subscription to the platform or if you are a user of the Apple One pack.
Rakuten TV
Rakuten is another proposal to access films, series and documentaries that allows individualized access buying or renting movies as if we were going to the cinema or do it with a subscription. The latter has a price of 6.99 euros per month while renting a movie ranges from 0.99 to 4.99 euros.

It also has the Atresplayer Premium variant, with previews, without advertising and for 2.99 euros per month.
Samsung TV Plus
One Samsung app that appears on the list is Samsung TV Plus. A tool that offers access to content of all kinds, from news to sports or entertainment. An application that offers free content in a kind of mixed bag.
Plex

Web Video Caster receiver
Web Video Caster is an application that allows you to send content to TV… did someone say Chromecast built-in? Well, it is a very similar operation with an application on the device that broadcasts (iOS or Android) and another on the TV, we can stream locally.
Spotify
Music streaming is also possible on the TV with the Spotify app. One of the most popular music streaming services also on Tizen offers free access with advertising and payment plans no ads. If you have a connected Home Cinema, it is not a bad option for TV to be your stereo.
