Heads up, YouTube TV subscribers, because starting today you’ve got many more devices to watch your streaming service on.
YouTube has announced that it’s rolling out YouTube TV apps for several new platforms and devices. There’s a new YouTube TV app for Android TV devices including the NVIDIA Shield TV and televisions with Android TV built-in.
Also rolling out over the coming days will be a YouTube TV app for Microsoft’s Xbox One consoles. That includes the original Xbox One, the Xbox One S, and soon, the Xbox One X.
In the coming weeks, YouTube TV apps will appear on Smart TVs from LG, Samsung, and Sony. YouTube plans to launch a YouTube TV app for Apple TV as well.
Here’s what’s new in this YouTube TV app:
- Control your live TV experience with your TV's remote control or game controller.
- For a more cinematic look, we made the background dark on your TVs.
- A new Live guide made for your big screen so you can get a sneak-peek at what's airing soon.
- Never miss the action with our background playback experience built for your big screen.
- Easily pick up where you left off on another device when you get home.
YouTube TV is still a fairly new streaming TV service, having launched around 7 months ago. It’s now available in 49 markets across the U.S., and the spread of YouTube TV apps across all of these new platforms ought to please existing subscribers and help to attract new customers as YouTube TV continues to become available throughout the U.S.
