No, Google TV cannot work without an internet connection.
Google TV relies heavily on the internet for its core functionalities. It uses the internet to:
- Stream content: Google TV primarily functions as a streaming device, accessing content from various streaming services like Netflix, YouTube, and Disney+.
- Download apps: You need an internet connection to download and install apps on your Google TV.
- Update software: Google TV requires an internet connection to receive software updates and bug fixes.
- Personalize recommendations: Google TV uses your viewing history and preferences to suggest content, which requires access to the internet.
While some features like playing local media files from a USB drive might work offline, the majority of Google TV's features require a stable internet connection to function properly.
