Hello, thank you for your question. You have the option to skip the Google sign-in on the initial setup of the TV. You can enjoy some functions on your Android TV™ device without a Google™ account. You can watch TV programs and enjoy all Sony® apps, home network functions for the Album, Music, and Video apps. Certain functions, such as the Google voice search function, Chromecast™ built-in (Google Cast), internet browsing, and the YouTube™ app, are available without logging in to a Google account. However, you will not be able to rent or buy movies, TV shows, and apps from the Google Play™ Store. We recommend checking this link if you only want to use this unit for watching TV programs: https://helpguide.sony.net/tv/iusltn1/v1/en-003/02.html?hl=watch+tv Hope this helps. ~Earl
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I have no idea since mine was partially DOA and only gets netflix and amazon prime. Let me know what you find out as I only have the same basic need and hopefully when I get a replacement TV next week I can figure it out though I imagine it's just a matter of plugging in the hmdi cabe or co-as cable to the tv and cable box but since Best Buy won't set anything up unless you pay them about $150 ask Sony or your cable or satellite provider to help they should do it for free.
