Google TV enhances user experience with app hibernation and performance improvements
Google TV has announced new improvements to its user experience based on feedback from users, for which it has introduced new features that aim to reduce storage space usage, such as app hibernation, which automatically forces apps to hibernate when not used for over 30 days. Additionally, Google TV has implemented the use of Android App Bundles to reduce app size by 25%. These features are already available on devices and do not require any action from users.
Performance improvements have also been made to reduce wait time on Google TV. These changes include reducing the time it takes to wake up your Google TV, the response time between your TV and remote button clicks, and the amount of time you see the loading animation when rebooting your device. Changes to the Google TV homescreen have also been introduced in the US, which have improved performance and created a smoother experience across the board.
Google is committed to improving the user experience and promises more updates later this year. The company encourages users to share their feedback to help make the Google TV journey better than ever. These improvements will allow users to download even more apps and watch their preferred programs without worrying about storage space. The new features and performance improvements are available to all Google TV users, and the company will continue to listen to user feedback and make changes to improve the overall experience.
