An open source app that cleans up your TV, turns off ads, trackers and bloat in a few taps from the community list of more than 300+ devices. Side load apps your TV's store doesn't carry, send files from your phone, and see which apps use data and where they connect. Free, GPL-3.0, Under 3MB, no ads, no tracking, no account.
My XGIMI projector came full of apps I never asked for, a home screen full of ads and a store without Netflix.
Tellyscope fixes it, its an open source app that cleans up your Android TV, turns off ads, trackers and bloat in a few taps. Side load apps your TV's store doesn't carry, send files from your phone, and see which apps use data and where they connect.
Free, GPL-3.0, no ads, no tracking, no account. It makes two internet requests: the cleanyourtv debloat lists from GitHub, and an update check you can turn off.
Most of the code is written by Claude Opus 5.5 + Fable 5, and I direct the work. what gets built, how it should behave, and what's safe to touch. It's not prompt and ship. Every change goes through a pull request that gets reviewed before I merge it, and CI runs the build, unit tests and lint. Risky features get e2e tests on an Android TV emulator first. The safety rules are hard coded rather than left to the AI and I've created and maintained open source projects since before the AI era. It's GPL-3.0, so you can read all of it on GitHub
I need your help testing it out on all kinds of models. All feedback and suggestions are appreciated.
