# About Yandex Browser for TV
Yandex Browser for TV helps you find movies and videos on the internet. You can download the app on a [TV with YaOS](https://yandex.ru/support/smart-tv/), [Yandex Smart TV with Alice](https://yandex.ru/support/smart-tv-yndx/), and [Yandex Module with YaOS](https://yandex.ru/support/module/index.html) if you didn't purchase them by [subscription](https://yandex.ru/support/module/partial-payment.html).

## How it's different from Yandex Browser {#differences}

Here's what Yandex Browser for TV can do:

- Search for information on the internet, including by voice commands.
- Browse sites.
- Save your favorite sites on [Tableau](https://yandex.com/support/browser-tv/en/tableau.md).
- Keep record of your search queries on the device.

## Authentication {#authorization}

Yandex Browser for TV doesn't support authentication with [Yandex ID](https://passport.yandex.com). That's why your TV search history is not synced with the Yandex Browser history on your other devices.

But you can log in on the [Yandex home page](https://yandex.com/) in Yandex Browser for TV, and then your search history will be saved.

## Updates {#update}
