TV Timer+ helps you manage your TV with a simple countdown timer that automatically puts your device to sleep. Perfect for Android TV based devices and set-top boxes, it’s the easiest way to prevent late-night streaming or manage children’s screen time.

⚙️ How it works

TV Timer+ communicates directly with your device through the built-in local ADB service on Android TV. This allows the app to send secure commands that manage TV functions — such as sleep mode today, and more parental control options in future updates.

✨ Features

• ⏱️ Preset timer selection – quickly choose a preset duration.
• ⏳ Countdown timer – puts the TV to sleep automatically when finished.
• 🔒 Completely local – no internet connection required for core functionality.

📊 Analytics and Crash Reporting

To help improve the app, TV Timer+ uses Firebase for basic, anonymous analytics and crash reporting. This includes:

• Analytics: Understanding which features are used most often.
• Crashlytics: Identifying bugs and crashes to make the app more stable. This data is completely anonymous and helps prioritize future development.

🛠️ Roadmap

Planned features for future releases:

• 📡 Local network remote control (bundled server).

• ⏰ Custom timer durations – add your own time intervals.
• 🛑 More actions than sleep – additional options once the timer ends.
