<p>The Android TV system user interface provides the launch pad for your app's big screen
|
||
experience. It's important to understand how your app is presented in the main user interface and
|
||
how your app can help users get to the content they want quickly, including contributing content
|
||
suggestions to the recommendations row.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>This section provides quick overview of the Android TV user interface.</p>
|
||
|
||
|
||
<h2>Home Screen</h2>
|
||
|
||
<p>The Home Screen is the start of a TV user's experience, providing search, content
|
||
recommendations, access to apps and settings. The Home Screen provides a rich and cinematic
|
||
overview of apps and content.</p>

|

|
||
|
||
<h2>Search</h2>
|
||
|
||
<p>By bringing the power of Google search to the big screen, Android TV makes new, dynamic
|
||
connections between content - a favorite movie may connect to the discovery of a new music artist,
|
||
planning trip to Paris might surface new YouTube content and photos.</p>

|
||
|
||
|
||
<h2>Recommendations</h2>
|
||
|
||
<p>The recommendation row on Android TV is a central feature of the Home Screen that allows
|
||
users quick access to dynamic and relevant content for their media consumption activities. The
|
||
stream is optimized for quick browsing of personalized content and activity resumption (on the
|
||
device and across devices), while also providing a way for users to act on meaningful new content.</p>
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
<p>
|
||
The recommendations are based on the user’s recent and frequent usage behaviors, as well as
|
||
expressed content preferences. They are presented as cards that represent a system or app action,
|
||
notification, activity, or piece of actionable media. Your app can provide suggestions for the
|
||
recommendations row to help get your content noticed. To learn more, see
|
||

|
||
</p>
|
||
|
||
|
||
<h2>Apps and Games</h2>
|
||
|
||
<p>Apps and Games rows both have special areas on the Home Screen. Within these respective
|
||
areas, Apps and Games titles are reordered to reflect the user’s recent usage.</p>

|
||
|
||
<h2>Settings</h2>
|
||
|
||
<p>Access to Settings is found at the bottom of the Home Screen. From here, the user can access
|
||
Android and device-specific settings. Please see the "Settings" section for more detailed
|
||
information.</p>
