Hey everyone,

A little while ago, I shared my remote-friendly Immich TV app here, and the response from the community was amazing.

I originally built it because I wanted a proper TV-first way to browse my self-hosted Immich library from the couch. Since the initial post, the feedback, suggestions, and bug reports from the community have helped shape the app a lot.

Since then, I’ve added more features, fixed bugs, improved remote navigation, polished the media viewer, added slideshow options, wallpaper mode, multi-user switching with PIN support, and worked through several Play Store / Google TV issues.

The goal is still the same: make Immich feel natural on a TV, with proper remote-based navigation instead of forcing a mobile or web experience onto the big screen.

Thanks again to everyone who tried it, shared feedback, reported issues, or encouraged the project. The Immich community has been genuinely great.

You can check out the app on Google Play or via Github.

I’ll keep improving it based on feedback.

I’ve been using Immich for almost a year now to host my 300GB+ photo/video library after moving away from Google Photos, and I’ve genuinely loved the experience so far.

Recently, I wanted to browse my Immich library on the TV, but I couldn’t find a TV app that felt properly remote-friendly. The available options/workarounds didn’t feel ideal for couch use, so I ended up building one.

The app is built with Flutter and BLoC, with the main focus being TV-first navigation. Every screen/component is designed to be usable with a remote: focus states, grid navigation, back behavior, album browsing, photo/video viewing, etc.
