traditional television into dynamic Smart TV solutions.

  • Project management

    Purrweb's project managers seamlessly coordinate design, development, and testing specialists from concept to launch. With a laser focus on clear communication and efficiency, we ensure every phase hits its milestones. The end result? A high-quality, user-friendly smart TV app delivered on time and within budget.

  • UI design for TV apps

    Our team will make sure your users don't have to get up from the couch to read what's on-screen. Whether they like to lean on the backrest or hunch over, we will consider different habits and the smallest details to create a readable and focused UI for your smart TV app.

  • UX design for TV apps

    We make sure navigating your app via remote control is as easy as scrolling through social media. Our designers meticulously study how people actually interact with their TVs and craft intuitive navigation flows that just make sense — no Googling required.

  • Rigorous testing

    To ensure optimal performance and high quality, our team conducts many tests. Are the fonts visible from average viewing distances? Is the interface easy to navigate with a remote control? Does the app run smoothly without lag or crashes on various smart TV models? Those are just a few of the details we check for after smart TV app development.

Smart TV app development process

  • Examine the idea

    First, we start by analyzing the project’s business goals and logic. There is a reason we do it before diving into designing the interface and coding your smart TV app. After we assess your objectives, we can come up with the best-fit development plan, budget, and timeframe.

  • Prioritize features

    Based on your goals and budget, we prioritize must-have features for your smart TV app. The precise focus helps us shorten the time-to-market and cut down the expenses, leaving the non-essentials behind.

  • Design UI/UX

    We create a mind map to break down app logic, craft wireframes to visualize it, and turn it into a prototype. From there, the smart TV app development begins. In our design principles, we follow all of the iOS and Android design guidelines.

  • App development services

    To better serve your goals and objectives, we assemble a team of smart TV app developers with versatile skill sets. They work in sprints — 2-week intervals with regular check-ins — to control the workload and track the progress at every step.

  • Testing

    Bug-free is a must-have for a successful launch. Our meticulous testing regime combines manual and automated checks to detect any issues before the release on the Google Play or the App Store.

  • Release and support

    We won’t leave you hanging out to dry after the launch. The team will help support and update the app post-release. We also provide support with the marketplace distribution.
