5 Coding-Free Ways To Create Your Samsung TV App

By The Zype Team on May 03, 2021

OTT platforms have taken over the global market, and Samsung TV has emerged as one of the top players. As a publisher, if you don't already have a video streaming app for this major platform, you're leaving money on the table. 

A report by Statista states that Samsung TV dominated the US market in 2020. According to Samsung, the penetration of its smart TVs will reach a total of 23 countries by the end of 2021. Having your own Samsung TV app will help you reach global audiences, in addition to a major percentage of US households.

If you're wondering how to get started, we're here to help. We've listed below different ways to build your Samsung TV app, including using the hassle-free services of platforms like MAZ systems.

Building a Samsung TV App

Here are some of the easiest ways in which you can build your Samsung TV app.

#1. MAZ

If you're investing in building your own app without the need for coding, you need a platform that's trustworthy and offers results. Try and explore MAZ as it will help you design and create your app that is feature-rich and visually appealing. It will also give you exciting and encouraging numbers such as 3x higher session durations and 8x more sessions per user. So, if you're serious about developing a successful app, Request a demo today.

#2. Uscreen

Uscreen offers an easy and painless experience for app development. There's no right experience or budget, as they'll help you find what you need within your resource constraints. The company promises a turnaround time of 30 days. Uscreen's pricing model is heavy on additional fees for subscribers which can be a turn-off for many customers, but the company offers a full-featured product.

#3. Zype

Zype offers an easy template for you to get started with your Samsung TV app. With simple configurations that you can do yourself, Zype provides a hassle-free experience and requires absolutely no coding knowledge. However, with too many steps to follow, you run the risk of missing out on the smaller steps and having to re-build the entire app. 

#4. Build It Yourself

It's extremely satisfying to build something yourself, but it's also tedious. If you're comfortable with coding, you probably won't require too much time to get the app ready. If not, you can always take a few courses on Coursera or Udemy and work on the app. You'll have much greater control over your application if you build it yourself. However, if you're only partially adept at coding, you could end up with a product that's not necessarily the best, and you would have wasted a lot of time in the process.

#5. Go For An Agency

What's the downside of hiring an agency or an external developer to build your Samsung TV app? The cost. And it's not just a one-time cost. Think about the maintenance cost to keep your app up to date and bug-free. Your development cost could run into thousands of dollars a month. But if you have deep pockets, this is the best way to create an app that fits the bill of your requirements perfectly, and that you have complete control over.

Creating Your Video Streaming App For Samsung TV

It's never too late to get started. Building a video streaming app is not as intimidating a task as it appears. You need to go with the right vendor who holds your hand all the way. And MAZ promises to be an alliance as trustworthy as you can get!
