TL;DR
- Samsung will be the first TV brand to offer a native Google Photos experience.
- Three key features — Memories, Create with AI, and Personalized Results — will be introduced throughout 2026.
- Despite Google’s close ties to Android TV, there’s still no native Google Photos app or experiences confirmed for the platform beyond casting and screensaver functionality.
Google Photos serves its purpose exceptionally well on Android flagships, but sometimes you want to relive your best moments on a bigger screen. After being notably absent from TV platforms, Google Photos is set to arrive on TVs soon, but curiously, it will debut first on Samsung TVs, rather than Android TV.
