Google TV’s new free streaming app has been removed and won’t be returning right away

What has a Google TV and no longer has access to the Freeplay app? The answer seems to be: everyone.

Freeplay – not to be confused with the UK’s Freeview Play – is Google’s free TV app for US users, delivering FAST (Free Ad-Supported TV) channels. The latest version of the Freeplay app rolled out in September, but so on 9to5Google noticed last week, it had disappeared from some users’ TVs.
