Google’s own Nest Cam portfolio was sadly not supported by the latest Chromecast with Google TV dongle, but for the 9th anniversary of the Chromecast brand, it was finally decided to bring live feed from the Nest cameras to your TV.
For example, you can say “show me the front door camera” for the Nest Doorbell, or “Hey Google, show me the front door camera on my TV” on your Assistant device like the Nest speaker.
Google’s acquisition of Nest has not gone as planned, as there is still a lack of synergy between the company’s own products and the Nest portfolio. For example, some Nest thermostats cannot be controlled from the Nest app or respond to the sensor.
The Nest Cam’s livestream video feed will roll out to your Chromecast with Google TV before the end of this week, while other Assistant and Android TV devices are likely to be supported as well.
