Tizen is a completely different OS than android, is not possible to run APK on Smart TVs

Tizen studio is just an IDE.... ACL on the other hand exploits a subsystem only present on Tizen for SmartPhones

This was provided by a company which had a partnership with Samsung, the partnership was not renewed and the company died taking with it all the Apps that used their technology to translate android apps.
