As Zoom is meant for audio and video conferencing, many people think that it would be better to use it on Android TV as it has a big screen. Regrettably, the Zoom app is not yet available for Smart TVs to date. Nevertheless, you can still install Zoom on your Android TV by sideloading the APK with the help of third-party apps like Downloader.
Other than sideloading, you can access Zoom on your Android TV by casting the app from a smartphone, tablet, or PC. Since Zoom uses an internet connection, you can easily make audio or video calls and chat with another Zoom user for free. If necessary, you can upgrade to a Zoom Pro plan that costs $14.99 per month.
