Android TV has an "Apps only" mode that does exactly that: https://support.google.com/googletv/answer/10070784?hl=en https://support.google.com/googletv/answer/10070784?hl=en
The downside (which some might consider an upside) is that that mode also breaks voice control.
- whs 2y agoMy Chromecast with Google TV on Apps only mode recently has a full screen, undismissable ads of a YouTube show on the top of the launcher. It is not present if you don't scroll up, but the settings button and account switcher is up there.
- aaravchen 2y agoUnder the "What happens when Apps only mode is on" heading, it clarifies that it only removes recommendations, not ads. > In Apps only mode, you don't get personalized recommendations on your home screen. You’ll find a list of installed apps that you can open to find something to watch. You'll also find sponsored content and teasers for popular movies and shows.
