What do you do after you download the APK via WiFi File Explorer? How do I get the App on my Android TV? More specifically, where do I find the file manager on the NVIDIA shield?

So if i want to transfer a few text files to my Mi Box S from a flash drive I first have to go to the PlayStore in the Mi Box S and download and install an apk called File Commander? And then using that apk I can transfer files to the Mi Box S storage drive? Thanks for your help in advance and thanks for the video. Very useful!

Thanks for your help in this new world of internet. My problem is with my Buzztv Vidstick Max. I have a Amazon Cube and it’s great and easy to use. I bought the Buzztv because I wanted to have more speed and capacity. My problem is that I can’t download Downloader from the Google play store and from Google it says ..your device is not compatible. What am I doing wrong. The Vidstick seems great but nowhere near the Amazon Cube. Thanks.
