Vizio offers one of the best entry-level TVs, and in the budget-tier, they offer TVs that sometimes outshine TVs from industry leaders such as Sony and smart LG. These TVs are fairly easy to use, and they offer tons of app supports too.
You'll get some of the most popular apps built into your Vizio Smart TV. For example, you'll get Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Netflix, as well as Pandora pre-installed in the unit you buy. If you wish to install additional apps on the Vizio smart TV, you need to follow some simple steps.
So, how to add apps to Vizio Smart TV? We'll tell you about that in this article here.
Let's begin.

Here, we'll walk you through the app installation process;
You won't be able to download any app unless the TV is connected to the internet. Forgoing online, press the 'Menu' button on your Vizio remote, and select the 'Network' tab.
Here, you'll find the 'Wireless' tab. Select that, and click on your home network that'll be displayed there. You'll be connected to the internet after entering the right password for Wi-Fi.
Press the 'V' button on the Vizio remote. You'll be directed to a menu where you'll find multiple app stores. While the app stores tend to vary from model to model, you can expect to find CTV Store or Yahoo TV Store.
You'll see the arrow keys on the remote. Use them to choose a specific store. After you settle on a specific store icon, press the 'Ok' button on the remote to enter it.
Upon entering the store, you'll find apps that are offered by that specific store. Use the arrow buttons to browse for the app you're looking for. Most stores offer a search option, and you'll be able to find the specific app you're looking for much more easily with the help of this bar.
Once you find the app you're looking for, click the 'Ok' button again, and click on the 'Install App' button. The installation process will take some time.
After the app is downloaded and installed, you'll need to click on the 'V' button of your Vizio remote. Select the 'Apps' menu from this tab, and you'll find all the downloaded apps.
The installation and downloading process will take some time, so we recommend that you wait a fair bit. You'll get a notification once the app is installed. If you don't find the app in the store even after receiving the notification, you should restart the TV.
Vizio Smart TVs have gained immense popularity for offering such an amazing quality in the budget-tier market. Despite the great features, downloading an app in these can be a bit of a hassle.
This is why lots of readers have been asking us how to add apps to Vizio smart TV. If you follow this guide accurately, then you shouldn't find any problem with this matter.
However, if you come across a problem, make sure you contact their support. If there are any technical problems, then that may be fixed by their team.
