Clean Your TV GitHub: Supported TVs, Setup and Restore

CleanYourTV is Gathin23/cleanyourtv, a project for changing Android TV and Google TV home screens and disabling unwanted packages. Check the operating system and restore plan before applying a device list.

Documentation checked November 1, 2026. We did not connect to a TV, enable debugging, install a launcher or test package changes.

Is this the right project for your television?

The README identifies its repository and cleanyour.tv as official links. It specifically distinguishes similarly named domains and says it does not publish an app in an app store. Its website separately links a community Android-phone app.

TV platformDocumented scope
Android TV or Google TVPackage cleanup and a replacement launcher
Fire TVLimited package cleanup; the README describes launcher restrictions and exceptions
Samsung Tizen, LG webOS, Roku, Vizio or Hisense VIDAANot the Android cleanup route; use the project's non-Android guidance

A brand name alone is insufficient: manufacturers sell different operating systems and models. A contributor's device list is a starting point, not our compatibility certification.

Understand the change before starting

The documented process records packages and settings, disables selected packages rather than uninstalling them, then installs a launcher. Its coding-assistant and manual routes are described under Quick start. Review the proposed package list against features you use, such as inputs, accessibility or a streaming application.

Keep the exact list and backup record for your own set. The project's restore documentation explains restoring package and home-screen state. We have not verified recovery on any device; do not substitute another model's record.

After a firmware update

The README explains that firmware updates can restore packages and the stock launcher or introduce new preloads. Recheck actual device state instead of assuming an old configuration still applies. The useful result is a home screen that works with your remote and required apps, together with a retained restoration route—not a count of disabled packages.
