About this APK
Google TV is an app by Google Inc. in the Video Players & Editors category, listed since at least December 2018. It includes native code only for x86 64-bit, so it won't install on ordinary ARM phones (only on x86 devices such as emulators and some Chromebooks). It needs Google Play services, so it may not work on phones without them. It also supports Android TV.
Since version 4.8.20.18, the minimum Android version rose from 4.4 to 6.0. It asks for 27 permissions, 7 of them sensitive, including record audio, read contacts and approximate location. The app can read the advertising ID that ad and analytics services use.
