Same TV.
A different feeling.

A few things
to know first.
Clear answers before you start.
Will this clean the physical screen?+
No. CleanYourTV is a software project for removing unwanted home-screen clutter and disabling selected preinstalled packages. It does not clean a physical TV screen.
Does it remove ads inside YouTube or streaming apps?+
No. It targets supported manufacturer advertising, recommendations and preinstalled packages. Ads served inside streaming apps are a separate issue.
Do I need to root my TV?+
The upstream workflow uses Android Debug Bridge (ADB), without rooting. You still need developer options, local network access and approval on the TV.
Can I undo the changes?+
Upstream provides backup and restore tools. Keep the backup created for your own TV and review the recovery guide before changing anything.
Does it work on Samsung, LG and Roku?+
The main Android workflow does not apply to Tizen, webOS or Roku OS. A brand name alone is not enough: check the operating system and exact model.
Is this the official CleanYourTV website?+
No. This is an independent guide and model lookup. The official website is cleanyour.tv and the original repository is Gathin23/cleanyourtv on GitHub.
