About Google TV

1. Watch instantly on your laptop, Android phone or tablet, or on your TV with Google TV or on Play Movies & TV where available.

2. Google TV, previously Play Movies & TV, makes it easy to find and enjoy the entertainment you love in one place.

3. Browse 700,000+ movies and TV episodes from across your streaming apps, all in one place and organized into topics and genres.

4. And you can use your phone’s keyboard to quickly type complicated passwords, movie names or search terms on your Google TV or other Android TV OS device.

5. Add interesting shows and movies to your Watchlist to keep track of your new discoveries and view them later.

6. The Watchlist is shared between all your devices, so you can even add to your Watchlist from your TV or phone and laptop through Search on any browser.

7. Discover new things with recommendations based on what you love and what’s trending across the services you already have access to.

8. With a remote built right into the app, you can find something great to watch even when the couch has eaten your remote.

9. Search for titles to see which streaming apps offer them.

10. Buy or rent the newest movies and shows right in the Shop tab.

11. Purchases are stored in your Library and can be downloaded to watch when you're not connected.

Google TV Customer Insights

1. Having the buy or watch on option in previous versions was so much better! This version is so frustrating! Update...an other options feature has been added allowing for purchases! Thank you!The remote functionally has been buried and you can't make a shortcut anymore, forcing you to go through their ads, and it no longer works to wake the device.

2. When the app loses focus, it returns to the launch screen when waking rather than the last screen you had navigated to, as it did prior to the update - frustrating if you had navigated to the next video to play after the current one ends.

3. Here's the thing, though...I've been purchasing movies for like 15-20 years! I don't keep emails for that many years! Google CS is useless, too.

4. Google doesn't put hardly anything on sale and they have the highest prices on digital media ESPECIALLY when it comes to TV! 2 seasons of a show can be almost $85!!! Google has enough money! You have become the thing you were created to be the opposite of!Most recent version is a big step backwards.

5. And as a side note why does every tech company who responds to user reviews call themselves helping by putting links in their replies? You guys do realize that no one can select the text or even click on the link right? And no one is going to go back and forth between a web browser and the reply to try to type out those random characters.

6. Literally was one of the shortcuts to the app you could choose to put on your home screen.Nice to have everything in one place, but it won't give you the option to buy or rent anything that could be streamed on a service, even if you don't have the app for that service connected to your account.

7. When movies & TV were part of the Play Store it wasn't great but it was worlds better than this! You can't find specific versions of movies like Unrated versions.

8. When casting videos (as I do 100% of the time when using the app) the app doesn't remember what video is playing, so controls to fwd/rev are useless.

9. Dumb way to have the app set up, in my opinion.It's very difficult to watch movies after the latest Chromebook update.

10. It's criminal.It's either very difficult or nonexistent now when having the option to buy a movie or tv show unless it's brand new.

11. I can only hit enter, the center button, even though no buttons are shown and highlighted, then it gives me the option to rent or buy.
