After update to Google TV, Play Movies app unchanged

by AdIllustrious3190

Google Play Movies received a Play Store update to Google TV on 04 October 2021. However, following the update the app is still called Google Play Movies in the app drawer and the Ul is still the old one. When I search for Play Movies in the Play Store lI'm brought to "Google TV (previously Google Play Movies & TV)", version 4.28.57.

I'm based in Ireland and seeing the same thing on a Pixel 4, Pixel 4a and Pixel 6.

Is anyone else experiencing this, whereby the app has updated to Google TV but the app's name and Ul haven't changed?

I have a feeling it may have something to do with "I'm based in Ireland".

I would submit feedback right as you boot into the app and tell them what you said here -- even copy-paste the post text and include the link to this thread

I know this offers you no solution, but it's heartening to know there are other countries Google couldn't give a toss about

I'm in the UK on Android 12 and still have the old app despite clearing cache and data and reinstalling. Really odd.

Yes, Google TV app on phones recently started expanding to these 14 countries, including Ireland.

You can clear cache & restart to see if the issue solves or not.

In my country, Google TV (or Google Play Movies & TV) isn't available yet, but the app says "Google TV" in app settings and "Play Movies & TV" in play store & app drawer. I'm also on 4.28.57.
