TED no longer supports apps on "over-the-top" (OTT) devices.
This includes:
- Roku
- Google TV
- Android TV
- Samsung Smart TV
- Fire TV
The TED app on these devices should be considered retired, as the functionality has deteriorated or ceased entirely.
As a small nonprofit organization, TED is often constrained by limited resources and staffing a fraction of the size of comparable media companies. Without dedicated developers for these devices, we lack the capacity to pull down promotional or download pages on the platforms.
The TED app is still available on Apple TV, though its functionality is also impaired.
The best alternative for watching TED content on your television is to visit the TED Talks channel on YouTube, or our website TED.com if your device has an internet browser.
We're grateful for your understanding.
