Google TV continues to improve its user experience with the latest update. The platform has introduced an updated app experience for free channels, making it simpler for users to discover and access their favorite content. This update comes as a part of the ongoing changes to the "Freeplay" branding on Google TV.
A New Interface for Free Channels
Unlike the previous experience, which was limited to a single screen with a list of available channels, the updated app now features a redesigned interface. Users can scroll through a list of available channels, sorted by popular, recently watched, or genre. The new layout also includes a "Favorites" section, where you can save channels you’re interested in for quick access.

More Ways to Find Your Favorite Channels
Beyond the updated app, free channels are still accessible in the "Live" tab on Google TV, making it easy to switch between paid and free content without leaving the platform.

Rollout Issues
The new design started rolling out a few days ago, but it seems there are some inconsistencies across different devices. Some devices already have the "Freeplay" icon on the home screen with the new app, while others still feature the older design.
We expect these issues to be resolved as the rollout continues.
What’s Next?
The new Google TV Streamer is reportedly set to start shipping soon, and was spotted in stores recently.
