Google change Google Play Movies & TV to Google TV
Google is working to
change the name of the (Google Play Movies & TV) application to (Google
TV), and the renaming will begin on Android phones, although you can expect to
change it on other platforms soon.

In a world with a very
large number of streaming services, Google has brought in a new application to
help you manage everything, so that (Google TV) will replace (Google Play
Movies & TV), but this change will not happen immediately.
The application is a
Google store for renting and buying movies and gathering content, and it can
bring movies and programs from various services, such as: Netflix, (Hulu),
(Disney), (HBO Max) and others, and put everything in one place.
Google is following
Apple’s footsteps here, as Apple uses the Apple TV app as the hub for all of
its video shows as well, whether it's TV shows or not.
Apple also uses the
(Apple TV) trademark in multiple ways, such as by devices, app, and its video
streaming service.
The name (Google TV) has
become a bit confusing, as in addition to being the previously mentioned
application, it is also the name of the new Google interface working with
(Android TV) on the new Chromecast device called (Chromecast with Google TV).
Google tried some time
ago to build a complete content ecosystem around the "Play" brand, as
there is the Google Play Store and the Google Play Books store.
Despite years of
neglecting the Google Play Music store, Google wants to close this store and
replace it with the YouTube Music app.
It is clear that the
"Play" trademark no longer works, so Google is simplifying it to
limit it to (Google TV).
Watchlist is an
essential part of the Google TV experience, as Google has been developing the
Watchlist feature within the search for a while.
(Google TV) integrates
these results directly into the mobile app and the TV, and if you add something
to the Watchlist on your phone or by searching on your laptop, it will appear
on the TV when you turn it on.
Google also recommends
content based on what is on Watchlist.
