TL;DR
  • Instagram is bringing its TV app to Google TV after an earlier Fire TV test.
  • The TV experience revolves around themed channels that group Reels by interests.
  • You still get core interactions, such as liking, commenting, and sharing.

Instagram’s push beyond the phone is picking up speed. After testing its TV experience on Amazon Fire TV late last year, the company is now rolling out its dedicated Instagram app to Google TV devices, marking another step in Meta’s plan to make short-form videos something people can enjoy together on the couch.

The app focuses on themed channels that organize Reels by interests and topics, such as sports highlights, cooking videos, travel clips, or viral moments. Instead of swiping on a small screen, you can browse from your couch using a remote, making it easy to watch videos passively.

Here’s an early look at how app lock and other Android 17 changes are coming together TL;DR Screenshots offer a peak at Google’s work on several changes we’re expecting to debut with Android 17. We’ve been anticipating new screen recording tools for tablets, and here we see the same UI for phones. Google’s been working on a tool to lock down access to apps, and we find a few signs of it here. Android 17 is set to deliver a lot of changes to our favorite mobile operating system, not just in terms of new functionality, but also with updates to the look and feel of existing systems. We just brought you a look at some of its new translucency effects a few hours ago, and now we’ve got a handful of additional images to share, highlighting even more changes due to arrive with Android’s next major release.
