Mastering Your DIGIBox: A Step-by-Step Guide to Installing Apps

Congratulations on owning a DIGIBox! As one of the top Android TV boxes available, DIGIBox offers you access to a world of entertainment, from live TV channels and movies to sports and international news. While DIGIBox comes pre-loaded with some of the best streaming apps like CAT TV, Koala TV, CAT VOD, and more, there may be times when you want to install additional apps to expand your viewing options.

On this page, we'll walk you through a step-by-step guide on how to install apps on your DIGIBox, helping you unlock its full potential.

Step 1: Connect Your DIGIBox to the Internet
Before you can install any apps, your DIGIBox must be connected to the internet. Here's how you can check and set up your connection:

Navigate to Settings: On the home screen of your DIGIBox, locate and select the "Settings" option.
Select Network Settings: In the settings menu, click on "Network & Internet."
Connect to Wi-Fi: If using Wi-Fi, select your network from the available options and enter your password. Alternatively, you can use an Ethernet cable for a wired connection.
Confirm Connection: Make sure that the DIGIBox is connected to the internet by checking the network status at the top of the screen.



Step 2: Choose the way you want to install the Apps

App Store
The DIGIBox App Play Store offers a search feature to help you find specific apps quickly. Here's how to use it:

Popular apps for DIGIBox include:
YouTube for streaming videos
Netflix, Disney+, and Prime Video for on-demand movies and TV shows
Spotify for music streaming
Kodi for customizable media center options



Google Play Store
DIGIBox is an Android-based device, meaning it's compatible with the Google Play Store, where you can download thousands of apps. Follow these steps:

Open the Google Play Store: From the home screen, select the Google Play Store icon. If it's not on your home screen, you can find it under the "Apps" section.
Sign in to Your Google Account: If this is your first time accessing the Play Store, you will need to log in using your Google account. If you don’t have one, you can create it here.
Explore the Play Store: Once logged in, browse the Play Store to find the apps you're interested in installing.



Step 3: Install the App
Once you've selected your desired app, follow these steps to install it:

Click "Install": On the app's page, click the"Install" button. This will start the download and installation process.
Wait for Installation: The app will automatically download and install on your DIGIBox. Depending on your internet speed, this might take a few moments.
Open the App: Once the installation is complete, you can either click "Open" directly from the Play Store or find the app on your home screen under "Apps"



Step 4: Installing Apps Outside the Play Store (APK Files)
Sometimes, you might want to install an app that isn’t available in the Google Play Store. For this, you can sideload APK files. Here's how:

Enable Unknown Sources:
Go to Settings > Security & Restrictions.
Toggle the switch for "Unknown Sources" to allow the installation of apps from sources outside of the Play Store.
Download APK: Use the browser on your DIGIBox to download the APK file for the app you want to install. Make sure you only download APK files from trusted sources to avoid security risks.

Use a File Manager: Once downloaded, open a file manager (such as File Explorer or ES File Explorer) to locate the APK file in the "Downloads" folder.

Install the APK: Click on the APK file and follow the prompts to install the app. Once installed, you can find the app in your app's menu just like any other.


Step 5: Managing Your Installed Apps
Once you've installed apps, you can easily manage them through your DIGIBox settings. Here's how to keep your device organized:

Uninstall Unused Apps: If you want to uninstall an app, go to Settings > Apps > Downloaded Apps. Select the app you want to remove and click "Uninstall.”
Clear Cache for Better Performance: If an app is running slowly, clearing its cache can help. Navigate to Settings > Apps, select the app, and click “Clear Cache.”
