Android-based streaming devices powered by the Google TV platform are taking the market by storm, thanks to their ease of use, smart features, and AI-driven content recommendations.
Different companies offer Google TV streaming devices, including Xiaomi, Walmart, and of course, Google with the new Chromecast.
With such a variety of options, it can be overwhelming to get the most out of these devices, so here are the top seven settings we think you should tweak on your Google TV for a better experience:
Manage content recommendations shown on the home screen.
Disable video previews autoplaying in the bar above recommendations.
Turn off animations for a speed boost.
Try the Apps Only mode for a less cluttered home screen.
Set up multiple user profiles for personalised experiences.
Switch to a custom DNS like Cloudflare’s 1.1.1.1 service for improved privacy and speeds.
Some of these settings can be changed from the Google TV smartphone app available for iOS and Android.
