WHNT19+ brings Huntsville's CBS affiliate to the Samsung TV — competently, narrowly.

WTEN+ brings Albany's ABC affiliate to the big screen with workmanlike polish.

WBOY+ on Samsung Tizen is a competent local-news lifeline for North Central West Virginia.
Nexstar's ABC affiliate for the Clarksburg–Fairmont–Morgantown DMA brings live newscasts, weather radar, and on-demand clips to Samsung TVs. The Tizen build is a port of the Roku original — same content, slightly slower navigation.

WTRF+ brings Wheeling's CBS affiliate to the Samsung TV with respectable polish.
Nexstar's Tizen build of WTRF 7News delivers local Ohio Valley newscasts, regional weather, and CBS-network filler on demand — useful inside its DMA, irrelevant outside it.
MAY 11, 2026
WCBD+ on Samsung Tizen is the Charleston NBC affiliate's FAST-channel pitch.
Nexstar's Lowcountry station ships a Tizen build that leans on the 24/7 News2+ FAST channel more than the Roku sibling does, with Bixby voice search wired in and the same shallow on-demand library underneath.
MAY 11, 2026
WFRV+ brings the Green Bay CBS affiliate to Samsung TVs with workmanlike polish.
Nexstar's free local-news streamer for WFRV Channel 5 covers Northeast Wisconsin with 24/7 newscasts, weather, and Storm Team coverage. The Tizen build is exactly what a small-market affiliate app should be — and not a frame more.

Airmont Player lands on Tizen as another anonymous IPTV shell.
A March-2026 newcomer in the Information aisle of the Samsung TV store, Airmont Player ships as a bring-your-own-playlist M3U client with no public description, no screenshots, and no operator branding to anchor it.

Polo Network TV is a TeleUP shelf channel for a sport cable forgot.
Polo Network TV is a free Samsung Tizen channel published by TeleUP Inc., one of the OTT vendors that quietly fills the long tail of smart-TV stores with single-sport feeds. There is almost nothing on the store page, and that is the review.
MAY 11, 2026
Sub Attack on Tizen is a remote-friendly minute on the Samsung Games row.
Bright Data's submarine arcade lands on Samsung Tizen as a free Gaming Hub filler — same compact loop as the LG build, but it has to share a row with cloud-streamed AAA on the same TV.
MAY 11, 2026
GRAVIT TV is a thin Tizen video channel with very little for a viewer to verify.
A free Samsung TV video app from a same-named developer, released in early 2026, with no store description, no screenshots, and no rating to anchor expectations.
MAY 11, 2026
nomaPlay is a bring-your-own-stream OTT player for Samsung TVs.
An empty-shell video client built for users who already have stream URLs in hand. The app organises and plays — it does not provide content, and the description is explicit about that boundary.
MAY 11, 2026
ArtVue is a lightweight art-frame app for Samsung TVs that don't have one built in.
Baraview's free Tizen channel turns any 2018-or-later Samsung set into an always-on picture-frame display, without the Frame-TV hardware premium and without Samsung's Art Store subscription.
MAY 11, 2026
Bubbles Ducky is a competent bubble-shooter that doesn't ask much of your Samsung TV.
Bright Data Ltd's free Tizen game is a Puzzle Bobble-lineage match-three bubble shooter with a duck wrapper. Lightweight, ad-supported, controller-friendly, and not trying to be more than it is.
MAY 11, 2026
Speed Rush on Tizen is a d-pad dodger without a pointer to lean on.
Bright Data's free casual racer lands on Samsung TV without the Magic Remote trick that carried its LG sibling. What's left is a competent four-direction time-killer that runs lean on every Tizen set from 2020 onward.
MAY 11, 2026
Virtual Fireplace HD turns a Samsung TV into a quiet hearth.
Edgeway Software's free Tizen channel loops looping fire footage with crackle audio. No interface to speak of, no ads, no menus — and that restraint is most of the case for installing it.
MAY 11, 2026
One on Samsung Tizen is a lightweight lifestyle utility with a generic name and a narrow job.
Tizen's catalogue is full of single-word lifestyle apps that surface a single feed or widget on the big screen, and One is one of them — useful in moments, easily forgotten otherwise.
MAY 11, 2026
Roopa Hala is a niche Tizen video channel with no public description to go on.
A March 2026 release from Evoke Digital Australia, slotted in the videos category. The Samsung TV store lists no synopsis, no screenshots, and no ratings — the channel is asking viewers to install on trust.
MAY 11, 2026
Prayer Times on Tizen turns the living-room TV into a quiet salah reminder.
A free utility from Pakistan Data Management Services that lists the five daily prayer windows on a Samsung TV based on location and calculation method — a single-purpose channel doing a single thing.
