0:00 With YouTube TV, you can watch NFL games across all your devices.

0:04 When you stream NFL games on YouTube TV,

0:07 you have access to features like Multi-View,

0:10 Key Plays, team and player stats, Fantasy View, and unlimited DVR.

0:14 In this video, we'll show you how to use them.

0:17 The YouTube TV Base Plan includes live NFL games such

0:21 as locally broadcast Sunday afternoon regular season games on CBS or FOX,

0:26 nationally televised games like Sunday Night Football on NBC,

0:30 preseason games, and playoff games.

0:32 And when you buy the NFL Sunday Ticket add-on, you'll get every game,

0:37 every Sunday— including out-of-market NFL regular season

0:41 Sunday afternoon games (except select digital-only games).

0:44 To watch NFL games, open the YouTube TV app on your mobile device or smart TV,

0:50 or go to tv.youtube.com on your desktop.

0:52 To see a full list of games, conference standings,

0:56 and team records, go to the NFL channel page on YouTube TV.

0:59 There, you'll see the games for the upcoming week,

1:02 recorded games from previous weeks, and more.

1:05 The NFL page in the YouTube TV app will show you

1:08 which games are available and unavailable to watch in your home area.

1:12 If the game is live, select the matchup to start watching.

1:15 If the game is scheduled for later, click the matchup,

1:18 then select “Set Mobile Reminder” to get an alert

1:20 on your mobile device when the game is live.

1:23 Make sure to enable notification permissions on your mobile

1:26 device in order to receive these alerts.

1:28 You can also go to the Live tab of YouTube

1:30 TV to see a full list of networks you can browse.

1:33 With the YouTube TV Base Plan,

1:35 you can catch nationally televised and locally broadcast NFL games.

1:39 If you don't have the NFL Sunday Ticket add-on,

1:42 you won't be able to watch out-of-market Sunday afternoon games.

1:45 Remember, when you travel outside of your home area,

1:48 you'll be prompted to update your current playback area to watch games,

1:51 which can change the games available to you.

1:54 Next, let's talk about DVR.

1:56 YouTube TV comes with unlimited DVR storage,

1:58 so you can record as many NFL games as you want during the season.

2:03 To record all the NFL games that are available to you throughout the season,

2:06 press the plus button at the top of the NFL page.

2:09 Scroll down to the weekly schedule to record a specific matchup,

2:12 or to record available games from a specific team for the entire season,

2:17 go to the team section.

2:19 Next, pick the team, then hit the plus button to add to library.

2:23 Once you do this, any game aired on YouTube TV

2:26 featuring that team will be added to your library and recorded.

2:29 All game recordings will be on the NFL channel page or the team’s page,

2:34 organized in chronological order.

2:35 Now, let's walk through how to use the Multi-View

2:38 and Key Plays feature when watching NFL games on YouTube TV.

2:42 Do note that these features aren't available on a web browser.

2:45 Multi-View is a feature that lets you watch up

2:48 to four NFL games at once on your smart TV, mobile phone, or tablet.

2:52 When you choose a Multi-View stream to watch,

2:55 all of the included games will be open on your stream.

2:58 If you don't see a pre-selected Multi-View stream that you want to watch,

3:01 you can build your own Multi-View.

3:03 To do this, select the live NFL game.

3:06 Next, open the controls in the watch player, then select Multi-View.

3:10 Next, add your games to the Multi-View

3:12 by selecting “View Available Games.” Do note

3:15 that only games that are currently live and available to watch can be added.

3:18 You can add up to three additional games to the stream.

3:21 Now, let's cover Key Plays.

3:22 If you're ever late to a game, you can catch up by jumping through

3:27 real-time highlights while you're watching the game.

3:30 You can also rewatch exciting moments.

3:32 To catch up on a game using Key Plays mode,

3:35 first find a live NFL game that's in progress.

3:38 Then, you'll be shown two options:

3:40 “Join Live” or “Catch Up with Key Plays.” Next,

3:43 select “Catch Up with Key Plays.” Now,

3:45 you'll jump into a highlight version of the game you're watching.

3:49 Whether you're watching a game live or recorded,

3:51 you have access to Views— an interactive feature

3:54 that lets you see real-time team and player stats,

3:57 track highlights of the game you're watching, and scores across the NFL.
