One of the applications that should not be missing if you have a TV with Android is google tv. Yes, its name is confusing as it is the same as the latest version of the company’s operating system for smart TVs. Through this app, you can access all kinds of information, in addition to controlling your Smart TV with Google TV or Android TV through its virtual remote control.
We knew that the Mountain View-based company had planned a notable change in this application and, after some initial tests, they have begun to launch the google tv global update, as reported by the colleagues of 9to5Google.
Among the main novelties that we see, we find a new tab, in addition to a renewed design to approach Material You. Let’s see in detail everything that comes when updating the Google TV app.
New tab Featured and other news
For a start, Google has added a new tab called Featured. There we will find news, articles and reviews, and even YouTube videos related to the movies or series that you like.
We also see new new tabs at the bottom to make it more comfortable for you to do all kinds of searches. More news? There will be a Share option which, as its name suggests, is perfect for sending your friends and loved ones content that they might like.
Continuing with the news that brings the new Google Play interface. There will now be a cards button that will allow you to open the Related Featured option. In addition, you can indicate what you like and what you don’t so that little by little the personalization is greater with the aim of having your own feed in the purest Google Discover style.
Lastly, there will be a new tab called Your Stuff and this is where you’ll be able to see your library and watchlists. This is certainly excellent news for Android TV owners.
To say that I personally use this app a lot since it is quite complete, and the fact that it integrates a virtual remote control with which to control your Smart TV with Google TV and Android TV is a value to take into account.
Regarding the release date of the update, Google has announced that version 4.32.50 of your Google TV application is already beginning to be available to all users, so we invite you to try to update to see if it is available. Otherwise, wait a few days as the launch is imminent.
