Hi there, @stanperovic. Please be advised that the APK file format is usually used on the Android operating system and not on our Samsung TVs.

@stanperovic  supported files can be seen in this article  (not a Uk link but situation will be the  similar) and Apk's  which are used in the Android system are not  included.  The Tv's use the Tizen system.  https://www.samsung.com/za/support/tv-audio-video/what-file-types-does-my-samsung-qled-tv-play/

Thanks for the advice, guys. So, it sounds like I need to learn about Tizen.

Allow Apk File To Use In Samsung OR Allow Most App In SamsungvTv Like Jiotv Plus App Is In Demand In India So We Use Our Account In Samsung Tizen
