Can I use my phone's wifi to run a TV box with channels in Thailand?

Phil ******

@Kevan **********

have you the Netflix app on your phone? If so and you have a smart TV you will be able to stream directly to your TV from your phone. You probably need a vpn.

Also your smart TV may have Netflix installed too like mine.

Other apps like cinema hd beta apk and teatv apk have a the movies and shows that Netflix has and these are free. Send me a movie and/or a show and I can attach a scr shot or 2.
