How To Set Up And Personalize A YouTube TV Subscription?

YouTube TV has done its bit to take the entire cord-cutting movement to greater heights. Do you want to watch live TV, sports, news, record your preferred TV shows for later viewing, or browse through an exciting archive of past programming, a YouTube TV subscription takes care of that for you.

YouTube TV is not a less costly alternative to cable. Its monthly package can be compared to the amount you would part with for legacy cable providers. But the several ways you can enjoy the content and programmes available to you makes YouTube TV a unique service.

As soon as you are done paying for a YouTube TV subscription, simple instructions have to be adhered to allow for initial customization. These are the steps to take if you wish to set up your account and get more out of it:

How Can I Navigate The 3 Main Tabs On A YouTube TV Account?

These available tabs are LIBRARY, HOME, and LIVE. “Home” is where YouTube recommends things for you to watch.

Click “+” close to programs you fancy if you want to add them to your library, and YouTube TV will instantly record all programs as they air. You will then be able to access them all in “Library.”

“Live” will display everything that is playing at the moment. You can see your local live broadcast channels and view sports, local news, or catch primetime shows airing on those broadcast networks. Users are able to swipe down further to view more than seventy popular cable networks and local sports networks.

How Can I Set Up Live Recordings And Build A Library?

It is possible to add any show, sports team, event, movie, e.t.c to your library by clicking “+”. YouTube TV will record all present and future airings.
