We periodically update our security standards to keep user info safe. This means that we turn off our services on devices that can no longer keep up with those standards. If your TV has a web browser, it may be possible to continue using YouTube through youtube.com.

Sometimes, you can upgrade your device's firmware to restore access to the YouTube app. If you're unsure about how to upgrade your firmware, get in touch with your device's manufacturer.
