Google TV Gets Upgrade: Enhanced UI Design, Greater Customization

[Leo Lopez]

Google has officially announced an upcoming upgrade for its Google TV platform, which will introduce a revamped user interface (UI) design and some functional enhancements. The update will be rolled out to all devices over the next few months.

The latest update brings a fresh new design to Google TV, with significant adoption of circular icons similar to those found on the Google Pixel series smartphones. This redesign aims to save screen space occupied by app icons, providing a more streamlined look.

Moreover, Google is now allowing users to add more applications to their Google TV app library and offering features like "reordering" and "adding apps." This increased level of customization will provide users with greater flexibility in organizing their content.

Google has also expressed its intention to offer users free access to news, movies, sports, and other content. A few months ago, free TV channels were added to Android TV, and Google TV will soon support these free TV channels as well.

Google TV is an online video service launched by Google, allowing users to download the Google TV app from the app store and purchase or rent movies and TV shows through the app. Currently, Google TV is available in over 111 countries and regions worldwide.
