Forgive me if this is a dumb question, but how do the apps get updated on Sony Android TV's. I always thought it was via a firmware update, but is there a separate mechanism which does this task, similar to how it's done on Android phones and tablets?

I take it you mean the apps like "Music" and "Album" not the google apps ? which you would do via the Play Store under the "Home" button in the section "apps"


Or take a look at this

Specifically I am referring to the BBC iPlayer app which, on my model of Sony tv (KD-43EX8005), can't show 4k UHD content. Not sure if iPlayer is a System app which might mean I can't manually update it.
