Google has announced that it will no longer support the Google TV platform. New Products at CES clearly showed what the future holds – Android TV coming times.
Google TV has never won great popularity and we expect that Google decides to give it up. The system has been criticized for slow action, problematic service and for this device are not widely available and as a result, few people had with Google TV any contact. In the entry on Google+, driven to the developers, Google announced that the Android platform TV is fully prepared and are working on the introduction of a variety of devices.
For developers it will be a lot easier, as the system has the same capabilities and APIs, which Android 5.0 on tablets and smartphones. Furthermore, they will be able to make more use of Google Cast, what Google really encouraged. Google TV devices will of course continue to work and their owners do not have to worry about.
Such manufacturers like Sony, Philips and Sharp reached for Android TV and then this system can be found on new TVs, which this year will go to the shops. What does this mean for users? Android TV is designed by using the TVs were the same features that we use on smartphones and tablets. So we can expect the same navigation, similar interface, voice control, a similar application, and of course access to Google Play.
