How to Download & Install Pikashow App on Android, Smart TV & PC

Because the Pika Show app is distributed outside the Google Play Store as an independent Android package (pikashow.apk, v94), follow these verified steps to install it safely on Android 5.0–14, Samsung One UI, Smart TVs, and Windows PCs.

METHOD 1: ANDROID PHONES & TABLETS ✓ Android 5.0 to Android 14+

Step-by-Step Android APK Installation (Scoped Unknown Sources)

Modern Android versions (Android 8.0 through Android 14/15) use per-app permission controls to authorize APK installations:

  1. Download the v94 APK Package: Tap the Download Verified Pikashow APK (v94) button above to save pikashow.apk (22.4 MB) to your phone's Downloads directory.
  2. Open Special App Access Settings: Navigate to Settings > Apps > Special App Access > Install Unknown Apps on your Android device.
  3. Allow Your Browser or File Manager: Select Google Chrome (or your native File Manager) and toggle Allow from this source to ON.
  4. Samsung Galaxy Auto Blocker Note (One UI 6+): If you use a newer Samsung Galaxy phone and see an "Blocked by Auto Blocker" message, open Settings > Security and Privacy > Auto Blocker and toggle it off during installation.
  5. Run the Installer & Launch: Tap the downloaded pikashow.apk notification or open it in Files by Google, press Install, and tap Open.

How to Download a Movie from Pikashow for Offline Viewing

Once you have installed the Pika Show app, you can save full movies and web series episodes directly to your device storage:

Using the Built-In Downloader

  1. Open PikaShow and select any movie from the Bollywood, Hollywood, or Series tab.
  2. Tap the Play icon on the movie poster.
  3. When the dialog box appears with Stream and Download options, select Download.
  4. Pick your preferred video file size (360p, 480p, 720p, or 1080p HD) to start saving the MP4/MKV file.

Using ADM / 1DM for Faster Speeds

  1. For large 1080p movies on slow mobile networks, install ADM (Advanced Download Manager) or 1DM from the Play Store.
  2. When tapping Download inside PikaShow, select External Downloader (ADM).
  3. ADM splits the video stream into multi-threaded segments so downloads resume automatically if your 4G/5G signal drops.

Installation & Store Availability FAQs

On Android 13 and Android 14, open Settings > Apps > Special App Access > Install Unknown Apps. Select your mobile browser (such as Chrome) or File Manager and toggle Allow from this source to ON.
Samsung One UI 6.0 and newer include an Auto Blocker security toggle that blocks all third-party APK installations outside the Play Store and Galaxy Store. Open Settings > Security and Privacy > Auto Blocker and turn it OFF before tapping pikashow.apk.
Open the PikaShow app, select any movie or web series episode, and tap the Play button. In the pop-up dialog, choose Download instead of Stream, pick your preferred video resolution (360p, 720p, or 1080p), and save the file to your phone.
Because the full PikaShow streaming application is compiled strictly as an Android APK (.apk) and is not available on iOS, apps listed on the Apple App Store or Google Play Store—such as OTT Watch List for Pikashow or Pikashoo—are companion movie database trackers and trailer guides, not full video streaming apps.
