Samsung TV / videos / GRAVIT TV
REVIEW
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.

GRAVIT TV arrived on the Samsung TV store at the end of March 2026, picked up a maintenance update three weeks later, and has sat there since with almost no public information attached. The name is generic. The developer name is the same as the channel name. The category is “Videos”, which on Tizen is the bucket that holds everything from established streamers to single-purpose niche channels. None of that narrows things down for a viewer trying to decide whether to install.
There is a particular kind of Tizen listing that ships without description copy, without screenshots, and without a rating — usually because the developer has prioritised getting the binary approved and never circled back to fill in the marketing surface. GRAVIT TV is one of those listings. The channel may be excellent. It may be a thin proof of concept. From the Tizen storefront alone, a viewer cannot tell, and that is the honest core of this review.
What can be said is that the channel is free, recently updated, and present on a platform where developer attention is scarce. Whether what plays inside justifies the install is a question only the developer can answer, by filling in the listing copy and adding a few representative screenshots. Until then, GRAVIT TV remains an unknown quantity sitting in the Videos category of a TV store that already has more unknown quantities than most viewers want to wade through.
GRAVIT TV ships with a name, an icon, a category, and not much else. The Tizen listing tells a viewer nothing about what the channel actually plays.
FEATURES
GRAVIT TV is a free Tizen video channel from a developer of the same name, listed under the Videos category on the Samsung TV store. The Tizen build was released on 26 March 2026 and last refreshed on 15 April 2026.
Beyond that, the public listing is unusually bare. The store entry has no description text in English, no phone or tablet screenshots, and no aggregated user rating. There is no advertised on-demand catalogue, no live-channel grid, and no subscription or sign-in flow surfaced in the listing — what plays after the splash screen is something a viewer can only discover by installing.
The channel is free at install time. The listing does not flag in-app purchases or ad support, which on Tizen usually means the developer has not specified either way rather than confirming neither exists.
MISSION ACCOMPLISHED
The one verifiable thing GRAVIT TV does well is exist on Tizen at all. Samsung's TV app store is a thin shelf compared with Roku or LG webOS, and any developer who ships a working channel onto a 2024-or-newer Samsung set has cleared a real technical bar — Tizen submission is slower, harder, and less documented than the competing TV platforms.
The April 2026 update three weeks after launch is a small positive signal. A channel that ships and then immediately patches is at least being maintained, which is more than can be said for the long tail of abandoned Tizen apps that still sit in the store.
ROOM TO IMPROVE
An empty store listing is the structural problem. A Tizen viewer browsing the Videos category sees a name, an icon, and a category label, with no English description and no screenshots to suggest what plays inside. The path from "this looks interesting" to "I know what this is" runs entirely through installing the channel and hoping. Most viewers will not take that step, and the channel's discoverability on the Samsung store suffers accordingly.
No rating yet is partly a function of Tizen — Samsung does not surface user ratings the way Google Play does — but it also reflects how recent the listing is and how little signal a curious viewer has to work with. A short paragraph of English copy and three screenshots would do more for this channel than any code change the developer could ship next.
CONCLUSION
GRAVIT TV is hard to recommend or warn off, because the public information about it is almost nil. If a viewer already knows the source — a friend, a community, a brand they recognise — the install is free and reversible. Anyone else should wait for the developer to fill in the listing copy and add a few screenshots. That is the single change that would move this channel out of the unknown-quantity bucket.
