Google TV appeared almost two years ago. And since then, the company has been busy adding new features to the platform, including, most recently, iOS support. Google doesn’t neglect its products, which is why Google TV’s latest update has improved performance and stability.
According to Google, new processor and cache management optimizations will reduce the load time of the “For you” tab at startup. In the same way, browsing within a tab and switching between multiple tabs should become more responsive after installing the latest update.
Opening the “Live” tab is also faster. You’ll see less Google TV loading animation. Google says it will also take less time to switch to children’s profiles. But most importantly, the software will now use less RAM, resulting in a smoother viewing experience.
Google TV has also been slightly redesigned and improved data storage. The developers have added a “Free up storage” option in the settings menu to make it easier to clear the program cache and delete unused apps. This feature is already available on Chromecast with Google TV and will soon appear on Smart TVs.
The company has also worked to reduce the number of errors that occur when trying to install new apps. Finally, there is a new automated process that will free up space on your device so you can install more apps.
Google has already started distributing the above improvements to users. If you don’t see them right away, it may take a few days for them to reach your device.
