How to Install Anilili Anime App on Firestick & Android TV

This tutorial shows how to install the Anilili Anime App on Firestick, Fire TV, Android TV/Google TV, and other devices.

Anilili is a free anime app built for the living room, and its source code is public, which puts it in a different category than most APKs we cover.

This app pulls episodes from a rotating list of public anime servers and plays them back in a native player. The latest version is V0.1.50 which was released by its developer at the end of July 2026.

Unlike most third-party streaming apps, Anilili has no ads, requires no account to start watching, and doesn’t force you to install a separate video player.

The developer distributes builds through a Telegram group rather than a fixed download page, so the version you get depends on what was posted there most recently.

Since Anilili is not available in official app stores, it must be side-loaded on Android-powered devices like the Amazon Firestick, Fire TV, and Android TV/Google TV devices.

Anilili Anime App Review

After testing this application, here is what I concluded about Anilili:

What We Like

• VirusTotal returned zero detections on the version we scanned
• Source code is published on a public GitHub repository
• No ads appeared while browsing or during playback
• Plays in its own built-in player, so there is no second video player to install
• More than a dozen fallback servers when a link fails
• Automatic skip intro and outro across a long series
• AniList and MyAnimeList sync keeps progress tied to an account you already own
• Episodes can be downloaded for offline viewing
• There is a Telegram group for support.

What We Don’t Like

• Third-party source with no verified licensing for the content
• Anime only, with no other categories for movies or live TV
• No debrid service support, so link quality depends entirely on free public hosts
• Server quality swings widely and several sources buffer badly
• The repository shows a single maintainer, so updates stop if that person walks away

Is the Anilili Anime App Legal?

It’s impossible for TROYPOINT to determine whether these unverified apps like Anilili hold the proper licensing.

TROYPOINT recommends only accessing media not protected by copyright such as those that fall under Public Domain status.

The end-user is responsible for all content accessed through unverified apps. For verified options, see our list of legal streaming apps.

Is This App Safe to Install?

It is extremely important to check these “unofficial” applications for malware/viruses before using them and the best way to do this is with VirusTotal. Below is a screenshot of scan results from the official APK file.

While VirusTotal did not flag any malicious files within the Anilili APK, we should still protect ourselves with a VPN when streaming content from unverified streaming platforms like this one. Proceed with caution and understand the security risks if you decide to use this third-party app.

Final Thoughts from Troy

Anilili is a better built free anime app than most of what we have seen in the past. No ads, published source code, and a player that works out of the box.

Anime fans who want a free option will get real use out of this one, but I would keep a verified platform like Crunchyroll handy for more reliable streaming.
