Why publish your app and distribute via Titan OS?

Titan OS is the European, independent Linux-based smart TV operating system from Titan OS S.L, the technology, entertainment, and advertising company based in Barcelona. The independent OS is designed for all connected TVs. It is currently integrated in Philips and AOC’s Linux 2024 smart TVs across Europe, soon to be expanded to earlier models.

Titan OS’ mission is to re-think TV, together. By featuring channels prominently on the homepage and seamlessly integrating broadcast and streaming feeds in the EPG, Titan OS is not only improving content discovery for audiences but also increasing the potential reach of advertising.

Titan OS allows for fast and seamless integration of partners and by utilising HTML5, it provides partners with the flexibility to effectively adapt to market demands.

What type of apps does Titan OS support?

Titan OS is a Linux based system that supports HTML5 web applications.

How long is the intake process?

The Intake & Quality Assurance process takes between 2 and 4 weeks. For existing HTML5 apps that are already available on other Linux-based Smart TV platforms, most of the effort is focused on remote control button mapping and the implementation of User Agents.

Are there any variations of the platform to develop for?
