Google gives Android TV new Discover, Home and Apps tabs to make it more like Google TV
Google is giving Android TV an update to make it look more like its new Google TV software, adding three new tabs to its home screen interface. Rolling out from Wednesday, the update will revamp the interface to feature tabs for Home, Discover and Apps.
Similar to the layout of Google TV, all three tabs will be located at the top of the interface, replacing Android TV’s previous list-and-tile layout. The Home tab will remain the central location for accessing favorite apps and channels, while the company says that the Discover tab will display “personalized recommendations based on what you watch and what interests you.” The Apps tab will display any applications you’ve installed.
Like Roku and Amazon’s Fire TV, Google’s Android TV and Google TV are the search giant’s platforms for streaming apps and content on your television. Both of Google’s platforms support a variety of apps including Netflix, Disney Plus and HBO Max, integrate closely with Google Assistant for search and have virtual stores for renting or buying movies and TV shows.
