Thanks for the reply!

The device is Minix NEO X8H Plus.
I also tried to download the mobile app version and was told "This app is not compatible with your device".

For TV version, only the box listed here are compatible.
https://plus.tvbanywhere.com/certified-smart-tv-list.pdf

For mobile version, I think your box is too old and the Android version on your box is too old. Minimum requirement is Android 5.0 and I believe your box is running Android 4.4.

Also it is no guarantee that the mobile version will work on generic boxes. I have some boxes which can run the mobile version from Google Play Store but then I have one box that the app is not listed in the Google Play Store.

You may want to buy Mi Box S running Google certified Android TV OS. It is listed in the supported device list for the TV version. It supports Netflix 4K and has built-in Chromecast function to be used with apps like StarHub Go, it is the best value box below S$100.

BTW, more and more apps are not compatible with Android 4.4.

After everyone downloaded this app and start using it, many more people will sure cut cord. Starhub finished.

Not yet finished but TVB on big screen is one exclusive content for StarHub previously before this new development.

If you only need VOD, I think there are now pretty good choices in Singapore, with Toggle, StarHub Go, SingTel Cast, Netflix, HBO Go, TVB Anywhere+, Viu, Amazon Prime Video, Hooq, Fox+, Catchplay On Demand, etc, as well as the offering from Apple and Google.

If you need live TV, then it is still limited in Singapore. Toggle, SingTel Cast and StarHub Go only have limited choices for live TV, compared to SingTel TV and StarHub Fibre TV.
