To get recommendations that are more relevant to you, there are a few things you can do.
Important: These options aren't available for all shows and movies on every streaming service.
Add your streaming services
Important: When you add streaming services, you get more recommendations from those services. We recommend you only select services you subscribe to.
On a Google TV device:
- From the Google TV home screen, select Settings
Accounts & Sign In.

- To add your services, scroll right and turn on each service.
- To save the selection and exit the screen, scroll left.
In the Google TV app:
- At the top right, tap your profile picture or initial.
- Tap Manage services.
- Select the service you want to add.

For example, if you add Disney+ as one of your services, you’ll notice more recommendations from Disney+ on your Home screen or in your app.
New services are added regularly to the list. Google sets default ordering and selections for streaming services based on app popularity, installed apps, your saved services, and contractual agreements with our partners.
