How to sign up for YouTube TV outside selected cities

Earlier in the year, Google launched its internet TV subscription, meaning that YouTube TV became available in selected cities. The first locations to get the service are major cities like Los Angeles, New York, San Francisco, Philadelphia and Chicago. While the service is meant to be extended to other areas, in the meantime, there is a way in which those who live outside these cities can enjoy access to the service. We’ll tell you how you can get YouTube TV in your location, but first, there are a few facts that is worth considering.

What you need to know about YouTube TV

1. YouTube TV works on Android, iPhone, iPad, Google Chromecast and PC. It doesn’t support Roku or Apple TV.

2. Unlike the popular online platform that has the same name, YouTube TV is a paid service. You need to pay $35 per month to stream content from networks like NBC, CBS and Fox. With one membership, you can have up to 6 accounts and enjoy three different streams simultaneously.

3. When you buy a YouTube TV membership, the ads are not removed from regular YouTube videos. In order to get rid of the ads, you need to pay $9.99 per month for YouTube red. Keep in mind that if you sign up for YouTube TV on your iOS device, you would be charged $39.99 plus taxes and additional fees. If you only want to pay $35 (plus taxes and fees) per month, you need to sign up using your computer or Android device.

4. There is a 30-day free trial that allows you to enjoy the service for a month and discover what it offers. A credit card is required in order to get the trial.
