Select the app you want to download using your remote arrow keys and press Ok.
Navigate your arrow keys to the word Install apps and press Ok on your remote.
Wait for the app to finish downloading. For you to check your downloaded app, just press the V button on your Vizio TV remote to open the Apps Menu.
It is also possible to stream videos and movies on your Vizio Smart TV using a Chromecast enabled app on your android mobile device.
Here are the steps on how to do that:

Once the movie or music is already streaming, you will see a cast button on the bottom of your screen. It looks like a small white square with a Wi-fi symbol on its side. Click that.
