When Kodi freezes,
TV Keeper brings it back.

TV Keeper keeps watch over your Kodi. It catches crashes and frozen screens in seconds and brings Kodi back, so movie night never ends with a remote that won't respond.

The real recovery, as it looks on screen: freeze detected → narrated fix → back to your show.

How it works

Three jobs. It does them quietly.

1

Watch

A background watchdog keeps an eye on your Kodi — and only that app. It notices the moment it crashes to the home screen, stops answering, or the picture freezes while everything else still hums.

2

Catch

Crashes are caught right away; a frozen picture is usually confirmed within ten seconds — often in just a few. It's honest about its limits: it catches many kinds of freezes, not all of them.

3

Fix

With your permission it runs the whole fix itself — force stop, reopen — narrating each step on screen. The manual Reset button can also clear Kodi's cache. It restarts the app; it never touches your data, logins, or library.

Where it works

Built for the living room.

No root. No Kodi modification. No fragile macros. Proven on real hardware.

Automatic recovery

Android TV & Google TV

One guided recovery setup, then crashes and frozen screens are fixed for you. Without it you still get an instant alert — one press brings Kodi back.

  • NVIDIA Shield TV / Shield TV Pro
  • Chromecast with Google TV
  • Android TV boxes (Android 6.0+)
One-press recovery

Fire TV

Crashes restart automatically. For a hard freeze, TV Keeper spots it in seconds and takes you straight to the one button that fixes it — press it once, and the app is back about ten seconds later. Measured on real hardware.

  • Fire TV Stick 4K / 4K Max
  • Fire TV Stick (Fire OS 6+)
  • Fire TV Cube

Fire TV Stick HD (2026) and Fire TV Stick 4K Select (2025) — these run Amazon's Vega OS, not Android, and cannot run any Android app from any source.

Questions

Fair questions, honest answers.

Does it really fix a frozen app by itself?
On Android TV and Google TV — yes, when you switch on "Auto-recover when stuck" and "Watch for a frozen screen". TV Keeper spots the freeze (usually within about 10 seconds), announces what it's doing on screen, and restarts the app. Leave auto-recover off and it always asks first. It catches many kinds of freezes, not all of them.
What does it do on Fire TV?
Crashes restart automatically. For a hard freeze, Fire OS reserves the final "Force stop" press for you — so TV Keeper detects the freeze, takes you straight to that button, and reopens the app the moment you press it. About ten seconds from press to picture, measured on real hardware.
Will it ever delete my library, logins, or add-ons?
No. Recovery clears at most the app's cache — never app data. A built-in guard refuses destructive buttons like "Clear data" or "Uninstall" before every single tap, and that guard is enforced by automated tests on every build.
Why does it ask for Accessibility permission?
Only to perform the recovery steps you enable, on the app you selected: open that app's Settings page, tap Force stop (plus Clear cache when you press Reset), and reopen it. It can only see the Settings app — never your media apps — and you can switch it off any time. Nothing it reads is stored or sent anywhere.
Is it a subscription?
No. $3.99 once, through the app store, and it's yours forever — including the $0.99 launch-offer purchases. No ads, no account, no upsells inside the app.
Does one purchase cover both my Android TV and Fire TV devices?
Google Play and the Amazon Appstore are separate stores. A Google Play purchase covers the Android TV / Google TV devices on your Google account; Fire TV devices need the Amazon Appstore purchase on your Amazon account. Same app, one-time price either way.
Does it work with apps other than Kodi?
Not yet — this version watches Kodi, and only Kodi. That includes the popular Kodi forks and builds (a Kodinerds build is still Kodi). Every recovery step has been proven on real hardware against Kodi, and that focus is deliberate. Support for other apps is on the roadmap for a future version — no promises on timing.
