Open the YouTube TV app on your smart TV, gaming console, or streaming deviceĢ. Thankfully, YouTube has given out an official solution for the YouTube TV ‘Outside your home area’ issue. This further confirms that the issue is indeed at Google’s end. Judging by some user reports, it appears that YouTube has made some changes to the existing verification method – changes that have seemingly not gone as planned.Īffected devices include Roku, Chromecast with Google TV, Amazon Fire TV Stick, Nvidia Shield, and probably others.

I have a black screen that is saying I am outside your home area and I cannot watch until I return to my home area.

Upon opening up the app, an ‘Outside your home area’ message pops up which prevents users from proceeding any further. Several users are now unable to use the YouTube TV app on various TV models and Android TV devices.
