A modified Android TV user interface, branded "Google
TV"(unrelated to the company's discontinued smart TV platform of the same
name), debuted on the Chromecast with Google TV streaming device,
which was released on September 30, 2020. The Google TV interface emphasizes
content recommendations and discovery across different services and installed
apps, compared to the stock Android TV interface that is more focused on
navigating between individual installed apps. Google TV is compatible with over
6,500 apps built for Android TV. At launch, over 30 streaming services
were integrated with Google TV for use in its content aggregation features,
which has since expanded to the following:
Ø ABC
Ø Amazon Prime Video
Ø AMC
Ø A&E
Ø Crackle
Ø Comedy Central
Ø DC Universe
Ø DisneyNOW
Ø Disney+
Ø Epix Now
Ø Fox Now
Ø FuboTV
Ø Hulu
Ø HBO Go
Ø HBO Max
Ø History
Ø Lifetime
Ø MTV
Ø NAB
Ø Netflix paramount+
Ø Peacock
Ø Pluto TV
Ø Showtime Anytime
Ø Sling TV
Ø Starz
Ø TBS
Ø The CW
Ø TNT
Ø TubiVH1
Ø YouTube TV
The Google TV interface will be replacing the stock
Android TV interface by the end of 2022, starting with set-top boxes, dongles,
and smart TVs in 2021. The debut of Google TV coincided with the re-branding of
Google's Play Movies &TV Android app to Google TV.
