Hisense TV supports a lot of free entertainment apps like Pluto TV and Freeview. Cinema HD also joins this line of apps, offering on-demand movies and TV shows without charge. However, it is not supported natively and should be sideloaded on supported OS models, like Hisense Android, Google & Fire TV, using the Downloader sideloading app. In the rest of the models, you can screen mirror the Cinema HD app from a mobile phone and access it.
I have articulated the installation and screen mirroring process of the Cinema HD app on respective Hisense TVs and the prerequisites involved.
What Should Be Done?
- Obtain the Cinema HD APK file [urlsrt.io/cinema-HD-app] from the official website to sideload the app on the Android, Google, or Fire OS Hisense TV.
- Enable the screen mirroring option on Hisense TV with VIDAA, Xumo & Roku TV to mirror content from the Cinema HD smartphone app.

FAQ
No, you can’t because the iPhone/iPad doesn’t support the app. You could have seen an app called Cinema HD – Movies & TV Shows with a logo similar to the original on the App Store. But it is not the actual Cinema HD app.
Since Cinema HD is a free app, you don’t need to sign in to access it on your Hisense TV.
