• Google has temporarily removed its much-refreshed Freeplay app from Google TV devices.
• The company notes that this is due to an issue that may cause “increased crashes” for some users.
• A fix is coming “soon.”

Google TV’s updated Freeplay app, which first debuted on the Google TV Streamer, started rolling out to more supported devices across the US in September. However, almost as soon as it arrived on these devices, Google removed it from the interface due to an issue.

As 9to5Google spotted, the app is no longer available on devices other than Google’s flagship streaming box, but thankfully, the company isn’t adding it to the graveyard. Instead, Google notes in a statement to the outlet that it “discovered an issue that can increase crashes for some” and, as a result, disabled the app until a fix is implemented.
