Considering a Google Play Pass subscription? Want to know what apps and games will work with Android TV?
\nWe’ve painstakingly gone through every Play Pass app and game listing to check for Android TV support so you don’t have to.
\nThe full list of apps and games with Android TV support is below. But first, here’s a quick recap for those new to Play Pass.
\nWhat is Play Pass?
\nPlay Pass is an app and games subscription service. It is Google’s latest attempt to get Android device owners to engage more with apps from the Google Play Store.
\nGoogle launched the new Play Pass subscription service on September 23, 2019.
\nAt launch, Google confirmed Play Pass comes with access to more than 350 apps and games. That’s free access, beyond the price of the monthly subscription. This means not only is there no cost to downloading a Play Pass app or game, but also no ads or in-app purchases after downloading.
\nGoogle says it will continue to add new apps and games each month. This article will be updated each time Google adds new apps and games with Android TV support.
\nTo find out more about Play Pass, see here.
\nHow much does Play Pass cost?
\nPlay Pass costs $5.99 per month. That’s the standard price but considering the service has only just launched, Google is currently letting subscribers sign up at the reduced rate of $1.99 per month.
\nThat deal ends on October 10, 2019.
\nRegardless of the monthly rate, Play Pass does come with a 10-day free trial. So you are free to test out the service before deciding on whether it is the right subscription for you.
\nHow do I sign up for Play Pass?
\nIf you’re specifically interested in Android TV access, Play Pass does not naturally support Android TV as of yet. This means you cannot sign up using an Android TV device. You also cannot sign up using a web browser. However, you can sign up with an Android mobile device.
\nTo sign up for Play Pass you will need to open the Google Play app on an Android smartphone or tablet.
\nYou will then need to click on the menu icon in the top-left corner of the screen. This will open the side menu where a new „Play Pass” tab will be listed below the „Notifications” tab.<\/p>\n

While signed into a Google account, clicking the Play Pass tab and following the on screen instructions will start the Play Pass subscription.
\nHow Do I install a Play Pass app on Android TV?
\nAgain, because Google does not support Play Pass on Android TV, this is not easy, but it is doable.
\nPlay Pass is simply a collection of apps on the Google Play Store. Any app with Android TV support is unaffected by its inclusion in Play Pass. In other words, those apps still work fine on Android TV.
\nThe first problem is without Android TV support, there’s no way of knowing what apps are available without manually checking them all. That’s where this list comes in.
\nThe second issue is downloading those apps. Again, as Android TV is not supported, the Android TV version of the Google Play Store does not highlight any Play Pass games as Play Pass games. Therefore, you have two choices to install a Play Pass app on Android TV.
\nDownload on an Android TV device
\nThe first is to simply find a game you want from the list below, open the Android TV Play Store and manually search for the title. Once again, when the title shows up in the search results it won’t indicate that it’s included with Play Pass. However, you will see there’s no charge for downloading the app and that’s the difference.
\nFor example, Star Wars: KOTOR usually costs $9.99 but when a Play Pass subscription is active it appears on the Android TV’s Play Store as $0.00.
\nAndroid TV Play Store search
\nDownloading a Play Pass app this way will not incur any additional charges and is the easiest on-device method.
\nDownload via a web browser
\nThe second option is to simply click through any of the links below using a web browser. Whether on mobile or desktop, as long as you use a web browser to access the link, you’ll be directed to the app or game’s Play Store listing.
\nHere you’ll not only be able to see that the app or game is included with Play Pass, but you can also send it to your Android TV device.
\nWeb Play Store Play Pass
\nTo send the app or game simply click on the „This app is compatible with some of your devices” shown underneath the app or game’s title. A drop down menu will appear allowing you to choose which device to send the game to.
\nSelect the desired Android TV device and the app or game will be installed on that device.
\nWhat Android TV apps and games are included with Play Pass?
\nPlay Pass offers access to 100s of apps and games for free with a subscription. Generally speaking, the number of apps and games with Android TV support on the Play Store is extremely limited compared to Android mobile. That’s the same with Play Pass.
\nBelow is a quick overview of the full list of Play Pass apps and games with Android TV support included. The download and in-app purchase prices are also listed. However, they are just for reference as these charges are offset by the Play Pass subscription.<\/p>\n

\nDownload Chameleon Run
\nEvoland<\/p>\n

Price: $4.99. In-app purchases: None.

\nDownload Thimbleweed Park
\nThe Bug Butcher<\/p>\n

Price: $1.99. In-app purchases: None.
\nThe Bug Butcher is a 2D action shooter. Pretty much all of the danger comes from above so moving out of the way and side-to-side is the name of the game here.

\nAndroid TV users should take note: This one comes with a developer warning that states this game is not suitable for devices with less than 2GB RAM.

\nWayward Souls
\nWeather Live<\/p>\n

Price: $5.99. In-app purchases: None.
\nLike AccuWeather, Weather Live is another weather app. Although the main difference here is the aesthetics. In fact, the developer goes as far as to claim this is „the most beautiful weather app. Ever.”
\nWhether or not you agree, it does come with a variety of attractive and animated backgrounds for you to enjoy. That’s in addition to its primary purpose of providing real-time weather information and alerts.
\nDownload Weather Live
\nWhite Noise<\/p>\n

Price: $0.99. In-app purchases: $0.99 per item.
\nWhite Noise might not be an app you’ll want to watch or play on your TV, but it might be an app you want to download anyway.
\nThis is a white noise generator and therefore its sole purpose is to add a single noise type to the environment. Apps like this claim a number of benefits, including the reduction of stress and an improved ability to sleep.
\nIn total, there’s 40 different sounds to choose from, including crashing waves, lighter water drops, and more.
\nWhite Noise
\nThis list was first published on October 7, 2019. The list will be updated each time new Android TV supported apps are added to Play Pass. Or when any current Play Pass apps gain Android TV support.\u00a0
