Add the DIRECTV appOnce you have set up your Google TV or Android TV OS device and connect it to the internet, add the DIRECTV app:
On Google TV, navigate to "search" or simply press the Google Assistant button on the remote, then follow the below instructions. On Android TV OS devices, follow the below steps or use the search functionality to bypass the Google Play Store.
- Visit the Google Play Store
- Search DIRECTV
- Select Get to install the DIRECTV app.
- Select Open to start the app.
Make sure you have your DIRECTV STREAM credentials ready so you can sign in.
Important: When you set up your DIRECTV STREAM device at home, that location becomes the residential, non-mobile internet network associated with your device. This is called your home Wi-Fi Network. Accessing the DIRECTV app on your Google TV/Android TV OS devices will also be limited to your home Wi-Fi network. You can change your home Wi-Fi network up to 4 times within a 12-month period by relocating your DIRECTV STREAM device.
