What does a VPN on Android TV do?
A VPN on your Android TV encrypts the TV's entire internet connection and replaces its IP address with one from our secure server network. Every app on the TV goes through the tunnel at once - not just one browser on one device. That keeps your viewing habits away from your internet provider and the trackers built into streaming apps, stops ISP throttling from degrading your evening 4K stream, and lets you connect through servers in 100+ locations to reach your home services from abroad or explore libraries from other countries, all from the couch.
How to get a VPN on Android TV
Step 1
Sign up for Le VPN
Choose your subscription plan and create your account. All plans include a 30-day money-back guarantee.
Step 2
Install the app on your TV
Open Google Play on the TV, search for Le VPN, and install. Sign in with the remote, and allow the VPN connection when Android asks - that's the whole setup.
Step 3
Connect and stream securely
Press Connect for instant protection with our fastest server, or pick any location from 100+ options - then go straight back to watching.
What are the benefits of a VPN on Android TV?
Stream Everything, From Anywhere
Your Android TV is where streaming actually happens - so that's where the VPN belongs. Connect to servers in 100+ locations to keep access to your home streaming services while living or traveling abroad, catch broadcasts that only air in other countries, and explore international libraries from the couch. Because the VPN runs on the TV itself, every app benefits at once: no fiddling with one device while the big screen stays locked out.
No More ISP Throttling
Many internet providers quietly slow down video traffic at peak hours - exactly when you sit down to watch. Le VPN's encryption prevents your provider from identifying your streams as streams, so they can't single them out for throttling. Combined with our high-performance server network, that means stable 4K playback, faster starts, and fewer quality drops in the evening.
Privacy for the Whole Living Room
Streaming devices are chatty: apps and trackers report what you watch, when, and for how long. With Le VPN on your Android TV, all of that traffic leaves the box encrypted and carrying our IP address instead of yours, under the same strict zero-logs policy as every Le VPN app. Add Threat Protection, and known tracking and malware domains are stopped at the DNS level before they ever load.
Built for the Big Screen
Designed for the Remote
Le VPN on a TV isn't the phone app stretched to fill the screen - it opens its own TV interface, with big legible panels and everything reachable in a few presses of the D-pad. Browse the full server list, mark favourites so your go-to countries stay at the top, and check your connection with the built-in Test your IP screen. One account covers the TV, your phone, and everything else - up to 10 devices at once.
Censorship-Resistant Protocols
Le VPN for Android TV connects through WireGuard and our Stealth protocol - shown as WireGuard Ultra Stealth in the TV settings - which masks VPN traffic as ordinary encrypted browsing. Hotel networks, campus housing, and whole countries that block VPN connections generally can't tell Stealth from a regular HTTPS session, so your TV stays connected where standard VPNs get cut off. And because WireGuard is stateless, traffic either flows through the tunnel or not at all - a kill switch at the protocol level.
Plays Nicely With Your Home Network
A VPN on the TV shouldn't break the rest of the living room. The Allow Local Connections setting lets your TV keep talking to devices on your home network - casting from your phone, local media servers, smart home gear - while everything heading to the internet stays inside the tunnel. Streaming protection without the side effects.
