Getting started

Install TPVStream on Android

Install the app from Google Play on your Android tablet or phone.

On this page

TPVStream runs on Android 7.0 or later tablets and phones, as the main register, a satellite or a kitchen screen.

POS terminal without Google Play, or on Android 6? Install the universal Android APK.

Install from Google Play

  1. Open the Download page on the tablet or phone, or search for TPVStream on Google Play.
  2. Tap Install.
  3. Open the app. The first time, the setup wizard appears.

Permissions

Depending on what you use, Android asks for some permissions. Accept them so everything works:

Permission What for
Nearby devices / Bluetooth Bluetooth printers and scales
Camera Scanning the main register's QR code
Notifications Alerts about new devices and sending

Tips for register tablets

  • Turn off battery saver for TPVStream so Android doesn't stop the app in the background.
  • Keep the tablet plugged in if it's the main register.
  • Updates come through Google Play: we recommend installing them outside service hours.

Next step

Choose the device's role and activate your licence in the Initial setup.
