How to sideload apps on Reliance Jio Fiber Android set-top box?

[Evilbrain]

Got my STB today, tried to install jio tv apk but it seems like the box is locked or whatever i am not able to enable the "unknown sources" thing in the settings.

@krish80 - I have the model JHS D200 (no versions specified) and I haven't got any update so far.

@bigman91 me too... but I got remote update few weeks back.

@ponnitheunreal - Got an update today and like how others pointed out, appinstaller has vanished and all sideloaded apps have vanished on the home screen however they can be accessed via all apps. But I haven't figured out how to sideload apps yet.

@romil123 - Unfortunately the appinstaller option is no more for me after the new update. So unable to sideload.

All apps available in Jio store can now be accessed through home screen. Sideloaded apps still missing

@aayush - Sideloaded apps can be accessed via settings->all apps->open. And yes they work.

I know sideloaded apps can be accessed from settings but they are not available into the home screen, like they used to be earlier.
It is way easier to access the things from the home screen rather than going into the settings again and again.
