Google TV Just Made Setup So Easy, Even Your Parents Can Do It

Google TV has seen multiple changes in recent months. More recently, Google TV got multiple free channels alongside the ‘Free TV’ button on its remote. Google is now looking to introduce a simplified setup process for your Google TV device. It’s worth noting that the new set-up experience will show up on a few TVs first. 

Google TV has announced a simplified setup process involving Android and iOS devices

If you already use Google TV, you must be aware that the current setup process isn’t tad long either. However, the new simplified process can at least make it faster. In “The Keyword” post from yesterday, Google explained that the setup will change in a few ways.

First, when you first turn on the TV, your Android phone will automatically notify you that your device is ready. Thereafter, you can log in smoothly. If you are on iOS, you’ll get a QR code for simplified setup of your Google TV device.

Besides a simplified setup experience, Google is also changing how apps are installed during the set up process. While there aren’t many details around it, it could be that you’ll have to wait a little less for the app to get all the necessary installation files before you can browse.

Google also notes, “worry less about running out of storage down the line.” This could mean that those files might be lightweight too. That’s not all; Google TV will also be able to “connect to your home devices more quickly.” Explaining the same, Google notes that you can, “Use Google Home speakers to pause the TV, search for movies or shows, and control smart home devices.” 

You can experience the new setup process on select Hisense TVs

The new set up process will first be available on Hisense’s 2025 U7 series and 2025 U8 series. The company will expand this simplified set up process to other Google TV devices, including Walmart-exclusive Onn Streaming devices, later down the line. Let’s not forget that the Chromecast with Google TV is also getting a third-party revival, in the form of the Thomson Cast 150.
