CleanYourTV

Last checked Oct 28, 2026

A prompt and a small launcher that let Claude Code, Codex or Gemini CLI switch off the ads and bloatware on an Android or Google TV over Wi-Fi and put a clean, Apple TV-style home screen on it. Nothing is uninstalled, one command undoes it, and since version 3 there are optional add-ons and a no-root guide for Samsung, LG and Roku TVs.

Our Take

CleanYourTV is for anyone tired of the ads, bloatware and tracking that come with a smart TV. On an Android or Google TV, a coding assistant like Claude Code, Codex or Gemini CLI does the work from a computer on the same Wi-Fi: it connects over ADB, switches apps off rather than deleting them, and swaps in a clean home screen, and one command undoes it all. The site says it has been tested on 355 TV models from 99 brands, and version 3 added optional add-ons that show up as cards on the home screen. If your TV is a Samsung, LG or Roku, the site walks you through turning off the tracking with your remote instead, no coding assistant needed. Follow the steps one at a time, and don't try it on a TV you can't afford to fiddle with. Source
