is bestowing some love on Android TV by polishing up the ay Store on Android TV devices.
The latest version streamlines the menu, with better organized categories for finding your current apps new content. eviously you were given a rather unruly list that could take quite a while to explore.
en you launch the ay Store, the slide-out menu now has four choices: Home, Games, My Apps, Settings. Each of these selections then pop into a more exhaustive list of categories to scroll through.
Android lice has moved key information to make it easier to view at a glance.
so, other information is more condensed. The full name, publisher, update button have all been moved to the bottom for each app tile.
Even if you have a Nexus ayer that’s scored Android Marshmallow, you still may not yet have the latest version of the ay Store (the situation I found myself in). You’ll just need to wait for update 5.10.30-leanback to show up, or you can sideload the A yourself.
y this matters: Android TV doesn’t have anywhere near the momentum as ’s Chromecast. But that may be because is playing the long game: instead of trying to sell millions of units of a low-cost dongle, Android TV is ’s effort at a stalone platform that appeals to TV manufacturers. Sony, s, Sharp are on board, but has considerable foes in the popular Apple TV, Roku, Fire TV platforms.
