The end of Google Play Movies: from now on it will also be called Google TV

One of the most important changes in Spain within Google’s systems is the change of Android TV by Google TV, a system that will initially arrive with the new Chromecast, although in the last few hours we have discovered that it can already be integrated into Android TV installing the APK (with a bit of luck, yes).

The name change to Google TV seems that it will not only be destined to Android TV, but it will be a complete brand renewal that will also take one of the classics of Google Play, Google Play Movies.

Google TV can now be installed on your television with Android TV: this is how you can do it

Although Google TV would be a temporary exclusive to the Chromecast, you can already try the new interface on any modern Android TV.

With the arrival of Google TV, the company has decided to make a big change to its entire video platform. This includes the platform that has been with us for years on Google Play, known as Movies.

The application is receiving a change, and it is that as they have from 9to5 Google, this application has become Google TV, showing a similar style, but with a completely rebrand. This update seems to be being carried out from the server, so even if you install the latest version of Play Movies, you may have the previous interface.

This change has not caught us by surprise, since as we tested the new Google TV system, the rental and purchase options traditionally present on the Google Play Movies platform have disappeared, indicating the logo of the new Google TV.

Your purchased movies continue to appear on Google TV, in the collection section.

Does this mean that the movies I bought from Google Play will disappear?Not much less. The disappearance of the platform is nothing more than a rebrand, and everything you have on the platform becomes available, both in the new Google TV application and in the collection section of the new Google customization layer for Android TV.
