Ratings and reviews

In the rush to fill every inch of my tv screen with photo imagery, the AI reframing ruins photos. Heads are chopped off, landscape vistas are reduced to a close up on some item in the foreground, movie posters are reduced to a small section. This is such a leap backward. When can we have the old version back?

After the April Update to this app on my TCL 75QM6K (and presumably every other Google TV device), the OK navigation button on the TV remote will no longer turn the screen saver Off & return me to the last screen. For some Unimaginable reason, I now have to press the tiny Back button on my remote in order to exit the screen saver & return to the last screen. I verified & Corrected this Unwanted & Horrendous Change In App Behavior by Uninstalling the app update... DO BETTER, GOOGLE!!! 🤦🏻🙄

Bring back showing location! Location is no longer an available option to be displayed. It was very useful!
