With the free trial, you can access all of YouTube TV’s content. However, you will be charged an “authorization hold” on entering your credit card details for the purpose of verification. The charge will be refunded once the verification is complete. These are the features available:
- Record and store unlimited DVR

Note: Free trial lengths can vary for each add-on channel you have opted for. Check the duration remaining for the respective channels in the “Settings” tab on the YouTube TV app. The account auto-renews to a paid subscription after the trial period ends. You will then be charged for the base plan plus the cost of the add-on after this plus tax.
