Outline for AndroidTV

In this case, the regular Outline app won’t work on your Android TV.
Instead, we’ll use an alternative app that supports manual configuration via JSON.

Step 1: Install the app

Search for “Shadowsocks app for Android TV” on your TV’s app store.

If it’s not available there, you can download the APK manually:

👉 Download APK (external source)

Step 2: Create the config file

On your PC or phone, create a plain text file called outline.json
Open your Outline ssconf:// key in a browser, but replace ssconf:// with https:// at the start.
This will open a full JSON config with all required fields.
Paste the content into your outline.json file, and make sure it includes the following structure:

"local_port" and "remarks" might not appear in your data — copy them as shown above

Save the file

Step 3: Transfer the file to your Android TV

Use any of the following apps to transfer the file:

X-plore File Manager (with SMB network access to your PC)
File Manager Plus
Or simply transfer via USB stick

Place the outline.json somewhere accessible on the device.

Step 4: Import the config

Open the Shadowsocks app on your Android TV
Use the app's import function to load your outline.json file

✅ Done! Your VPN is now connected and ready to open websites and media for you.
And yes — you look amazing 🫵🫦
