Overview
- YouTube TV, which launched the upgrade Tuesday, now lets subscribers build a multiview from any live channel in their plan.
- Viewers can pin up to four streams and mix add-ons like NFL Sunday Ticket with local or national feeds for one screen sports viewing.
- YouTube assembles the split-screen on its servers, which helps it run smoothly on many smart TVs and phones without special hardware.
- The rollout is staggered by account across most living-room and mobile platforms, though under 5% of older devices will not show the full customization interface.
- Multiview works only with live programming and excludes some family-friendly titles, marking a shift from preset grids toward a more personal, sports-first experience.
