YouTube TV is now available everywhere in the U.S.

YouTube TV delivers a great package, and if you have questions, we have answers!

For those considering cutting the cord, YouTube TV is a viable option. If you live in the United States, anyway. We've got the details on everything you need to get the most out of this app, and everything that it offers. From details on the ins and outs of YouTube TV to how to troubleshoot issues, everything you need is here.

The latest YouTube TV news

March 28, 2019 — YouTube TV is now available everywhere in the U.S.

At the beginning of this year, YouTube TV made a big step forward by announcing that it was expanding across the entire United States. When that announcement came in late January, YouTube TV was available in 98% of the U.S. with the remaining markets to get the service "shortly thereafter."

Now, on March 28, it's been confirmed that YouTube TV is available in 100% of all television markets in the country.

The news was first announced via the YouTube TV Twitter account, in addition to updates on the YouTube TV support pages.

January 23, 2019 — YouTube TV is going nationwide!

Yep, you read that right. Almost two years since the service debuted, it's now available to use in any market in the U.S. rather than being limited to certain areas.

YouTube TV is already offered in a lot of places, so with today's change, it's being expanded to 95 new markets. That means YouTube TV is now available in more than 98% of the U.S., and any remaining areas will get support "shortly thereafter."

This is a big change for the service and one we're really excited to see. YouTube TV's geographical limitation has been one of its biggest pain points since release, so it's thrilling to see that no longer be an issue.

October 19, 2018 — YouTube offers to credit users accounts after Tuesday's service disruption

No one is happy when their TV service is disrupted, but people were exceptionally mad during YouTube's 90-minute outage that impacted just about every YouTube property on Tuesday night. Last time this happened — in the middle of the damned World Cup semifinals — we got a week of credit for our troubles, and this time we're getting one, too!

Wanting to make things up to their YouTube TV subscribers, YouTube is offering to credit users accounts if they fill out this form before next Wednesday, October 23. Cable and satellite go out fairly regularly — especially if you live in a severe weather-prone area like mine — but it is rare that your provider actually make it up to you when it happens. If you're a YouTube TV subscriber, you should hop to it, right now!

September 16, 2018 — YouTube TV's web app is getting a dark theme!

YouTube for Android finally got its dark theme two weeks ago, and I guess YouTube TV was feeling left out, so it's bringing a dark theme to the YouTube TV web app!

The new dark theme has popped up on YouTube TV's Help site, including the super-simple steps to turn it on:

  1. Open YouTube TV on a web browser.
  2. Tap your profile photo.
  3. Tap Settings.
  4. Tap Dark theme.
  5. Tap Dark theme to toggle it on.

Again, this is for the web app, not the Android app, but one can only hope it will be coming to the Android app before too long, right?

February 13, 2018 — The monthly cost is going up to $40 on March 13

Ever since it launched in April of 2017, YouTube TV has offered one single plan that costs $35 per month. However, starting next month, new subscribers are going to pay even more.

Beginning March 13, new YouTube TV customers will pay $40/month as opposed to the old $35/month rate. Current subscribers and anyone that signs up before then will still get the more affordable pricing, so if you've been thinking about signing up for YouTube TV, you may want to do so sooner rather than later.
